Some Questions that you may have regarding the permit proces

Who are we?

Engineered Plans maintains its own engineering department that works with licensed engineers per your requirements. Should you require engineered plans for your building department in order to obtain a building permit we can supply you with what you’ll need: 

Do you need a permit for your project?

 Many of our customers do not choose to obtain permits, even though we always inform them that anything that is affixed to the ground normally requires a building permit.

At minimum, we suggest that you observe property setback regulations so you do not erect the structure in a location that violates local regulations (and so might attract official attention and possible penalties).

Obtaining a permit after the fact is not much trouble if you properly anchor and assemble your building. Just be sure to document with photos anything that is not easily seen such as footing depth, rebar placement etc.

Always abide by lot line setbacks and required distances from other buildings. Relocating the structure is an unnecessary hassle that can easily be avoided with a bit of due diligence at the start of your project.

Before you order

 We have no desire to sell you plans that you won’t actually need.

Before ordering engineered plans, you need to check with your local building department and verify that they will allow you to put up your building on the spot you’ve chosen. Every Building Department or Planning and Zoning Department has certain rules about “accessory structures” – which is what they usually consider our structures to be.

Two very important items to ask about in order to confirm you’ll be allowed to build your structure:

  1. Property setback requirements (how far away from your property boundary line a building must sit).
  2. Required distance from other structures.

There’s one more point to check, while you’re talking with the building authorities: ask them for the Design Load requirement for the type of building you’re planning to install. You’ll need these figures when ordering engineered plans.

Remember: It would be useless and a waste of your money to order engineered plans unless you know the local authorities will allow you to build!

Do I Need an Engineer to Draw up Structural Plans?

  • Building residential projects such as houses, apartments, and condos
  • Rebuilding a house that has been damaged by large storms
  • Decks, Pergolas, Canopy and Porches usually require structural plans
  • Re-working the structure of a building due to flaws in the original building process


 

Projects that Require Residential Structural Plans Include

 

  • Making changes to your doors and windows
  • Home extensions
  • Installing solar panels
  • Taking out or modifying an inside wall
