Architectural Drawings in Cardiff

Architectural drawings are used for a number of purposes, and may come in a number of distinct varieties depending on your needs. For most extensions or loft conversions at least some kind of architectural drawing will be required, either to submit to councils or local authorities for planning permission or building regulations approval, or for use by building contractors to effectively perform the building works.

Floor plans, site plans and elevation drawings will usually have to be drawn up to submit to local authorities to either acquire planning permission or to make sure that the proposed work is completed within permitted development rights. These drawings will present the scale of the proposed works, and offer the planning officer a sense of the way the work may interact with the nearby area. For construction requirements as well as for building regulations approval, technical drawings are often produced which detail the types of materials used in the building work on a structural and insulation level.
