Construction Contract Documents are the critical link
between the project’s ideas and goals and the people who will build.
They describe the built project in great deal, including dimensions, the
materials that will be used, structural design and sizing of members,
how the systems will work. The fee for construction documents is often
50% of the total architectural fee. A set of construction documents may
include:
· Site information and drawings.
· Civil engineering, landscape and site design as required.
· Floor plans with dimensions, notes and detail keys.
· Door, window, hardware and finish schedules. Door and window details.

· Specifications detailing the type, quality, products and/or materials referenced in the drawings.
