  • Restroom fixture clearances
  • Accessible route continuity
  • Signage and wayfinding

Fire & Life Safety

Egress

  • Occupant load calculations

  • Travel distance limits
  • Common path of egress travel
  • Exit sign and lighting placement

IBC General

How It Works

Our AI reads your construction drawings and extracts relevant information:

  • Room names and occupancy types from floor plans
  • Door sizes, swings, and hardware from plans and schedules
  • Wall types and fire ratings from partition schedules
  • Dimensions and clearances from details and plans
  • Fixture counts and locations from plumbing plans

This information is then checked against code requirements. When something does not meet code, you get a specific finding with the code reference and the sheet where the issue appears.
