As-Built Drawings
Plain-Language Definition
Construction drawings that have been revised to reflect all changes made during the construction process, showing the building exactly as it was built rather than as it was designed.
Technical Context
As-built drawings are part of the handover documentation package and are essential for future maintenance, renovation, and compliance verification.
Why It Matters
Without accurate as-built drawings, maintenance teams cannot locate concealed systems, and future renovations risk damaging existing infrastructure.
