BUILDING DRAWINGS CHECKLIST:ARCHITECTW DRAWINGS*byC.S.StrelkaPREFACEThis drawing checklist provides architects with a convenient toolfor the final review of drawings prepared under their supervision,Since this list is a general one, it cannot claim to cover all thespecial situations which can o.ccur in practice; nevertheless it shwldprove helpful as a basic guide. Users of this checklist are stronglyurged, before putting it to use, to consult the Canadian NationalStandard CAN 3-H 78.3-M77 Building Drawings (published by and availablefrom the Canadian Standards Association, 178 Rexdale Blvd., Rexdale,Ontario) or the Manual on Metric Building Practice (published by andavailable from the Division of Building Research, National ResearchCouncil of Canada).Part I of this checklist, which i& presented in narrative form,serves as a remtnder of various items to the person checking thedrawings. The matter of "crispness of drawing", for example, cannot beoveremphasized, particularly in plans drawn at 1:100 scale wherecomposite wall canstructf,on is envisaged.Part I1 presents, in tabulated form, a checklist sheet far everysheet in a traditional set of working drawings. These tables can bephotocopied and attached to the appropriate drawfngs during the checkingstage. Free space f s provided on most of the sheets for additionalitems. Using the tables will thus simplify the process of reprintingcheck sets and/or establishing permanent records of all verifications andapprovals. They can also supplement computer-aided design (CAD)sof mare.The architect must critically revfew his own work before releasingit to a contractor for execution. It is his professional responsibility,an obligation to his client and the key to a good business reputation.The author wishes to thank Dr. Alan 3. Wilson, of the LiverpoolFolytechnfc, England, for his many useful suggestions on the preparationof this paper.*The original title "BUILDINGS DRAWINGS CHECKLIST" has been changed todistinguish this article from future ones in the same series.
