1. Concept Design Drawings<\/span><\/h3>\n

Linwood includes concept design drawings in its home package. These drawings can cost a considerable amount of money when purchased separately from designers or architects.<\/p>\n

Concept design drawings show the proposed floor plan and exterior look (elevations) of the home. This is the easiest and least expensive time to make design changes. We have a large team of in-house experts who can help you create a full custom concept design.
Once the concept is finalized these drawings are used to prepare construction plans. Having a well thought out concept design will save you a lot of money during the construction process.<\/p>\n

2. Construction Plans<\/span><\/h3>\n

Our final construction plans are widely regarded as the best in the business by custom builders. They contain all the detail required to obtain building permits and build the home quickly and efficiently.<\/p>\n

Customized construction plans are generated based on your concept design. All our plans are Engineer reviewed for conformance to the National Building Code in the United States. Our assurance of conformance, however, does not extend to include special local conditions, seismic and \/or wind loading. A local engineer should be retained to respond to these conditions. Any applicable local costs are the responsibility of the customer.<\/p>\n

3. Foundation Plans<\/span><\/h3>\n

Linwood includes a foundation plan for the home, including crawlspace, partial, full or walk-out basement. This plan is based on standard soil load bearing characteristics. The main and upper floors of the home package can be built on any type of properly constructed foundation.
- Materials needed to complete the basement are available as an option. These materials consist of exterior and interior framing lumber, support beams and posts, sheathing, siding, exterior doors and windows to match the main and upper floors of the home.
- Materials such as anchor bolts, hardware and shear walls required by local engineering or building codes are not included.
- Costs resulting from local engineering requirements relating to foundation work and structure of the home are the responsibility of the customer.<\/p>\n
