The Long-Term Benefits of As- Built Drawings

As-Built drawings are also known as, As-Constructed or As-Installed drawings. They are made to include the ‘actual’ build details as completed in a construction project.

In the building phase, the client may need variations from the original plan. The modifications may have been carried out on-site but the changes need to be documented and As-Built drawings allow exactly for that.

As-Built Drawings may be needed for Construction, Electrical and Data, Hydraulic and Mechanical, Security and CCTV, Plumbing, and any other project. They can be made for commercial and residential buildings, retail and shopping centers, defense and government, education and many other types of projects.

Long-Term Benefits of As-Built Drawings

As-built drawings save everyone money in the long term.

The As-Builts can show the exact location of where work is to be completed or where the faulty component is, or the data outlet that needs to be patched in, the plantroom that requires servicing etc. Since As-Built drawings even define the location of hidden components, such as wiring, ducts and plumbing, all future repairs, maintenance and remodeling can be carried out in a more efficient and cost-effective manner.

You may also have to produce As-Built drawings, when demanded by the local authorities to check the safety state of the building.

As-Built plans and drawings can ensure that future renovation projects are completed on time by allowing confident planning of expansion and modifications of a facility, building or project.
