How Drawings & Permits Works in Pickering

  1. 1

    Site Survey

    Architect measures the home, documents existing conditions, and produces base drawings for the structural engineer to develop.

  2. 2

    Engineering

    Structural engineer designs footing depths, reinforcement, and pin sequencing, all stamped to satisfy Ontario Building Code Section 9.13.

  3. 3

    Submission
