Checklist for Floor Plan

General

• Title the drawing, note its scale, and indicate north (or reference direction).

• Draw all doors and direction of operation (swings, folding,etc.).

• Draw all windows to scale and show mullions.

• Number and symbol-code all doors and windows.

• Check door swings and window operations for possible conflicts with other elements and views.

• Number or name all rooms/spaces.

• Show stairways and include an arrow to indicate “up” or “down” from that floor level. Call out the number of risers and treads and cross-reference if a detailed drawing is made of the stairs elsewhere.

• Draw dash lines for major soffits or openings above and call them out in a note, including attic and other access panels.

• Draw dash lines for wheelchair access circles to show compliance with ADA standards (where applicable).

• Draw handrails, guardrails, and half-height walls and call out with a note, where necessary.
