This is a required as-built plan on most of our projects, particularly residential remodels. A roof plan should show the outline of the roof overlaid on top of the building perimeter walls, and include roof structural details including valleys, hips, ridges, and pitch. Equipment can also be added, particularly for flat commercial roofs.

While your specific project needs may differ, typically these building elements and finished spaces that are visible and accessible during our survey will be modeled orthogonally at a moderate level of detail:

• Skylights
• Parapets
• Hatch and access
• Vent pipes and roof drains
• Deck
• MEP equipment (blocked out at correct location and size, not including functions and runs)
