Pre-submittal plan review and code compliance analysis to identify potential issues before your plans reach the Authority Having Jurisdiction. We conduct thorough reviews of architectural, MEP, and fire protection plans against applicable International Building Code (IBC), International Fire Code (IFC), and NFPA requirements, helping you catch and resolve code compliance issues early when they're easier and less expensive to address.
Our reviews reduce the likelihood of plan rejections, resubmittals, and construction delays by ensuring your design meets code requirements before official submission.
What We Review:
Building and fire code compliance (IBC/IFC)
Fire protection system requirements per IFC and NFPA standards (sprinklers, alarms, suppression)
Means of egress and emergency evacuation per IBC/IFC
Fire resistance ratings and construction types
Occupancy classifications and fire/smoke separations
Fire department access and water supply (IFC Chapter 5)
Fire protection system design review (NFPA 13, 13R, 13D, 72, etc.)
Hazardous materials storage and handling per IFC (if applicable)
Deliverable: Detailed code compliance review memo with identified deficiencies, applicable IBC/IFC/NFPA code references, and remediation recommendations
Typical Timeline: 5-10 business days depending on project complexity
Fee Structure: Hourly rate ($150-200/hour) or flat fee based on project scope and square footage
