Additional notes about engineering and building codes:
Our plans are designed to meet national building codes. We do not guarantee they will meet all local building requirements or building codes influenced by local geographic or climactic factors. It is the responsibility of the owner or builder to ensure these plans comply with city, county, municipal and/or state/provincial building codes. Additionally, your plans will not be sealed or stamped by an engineer or architect. It is the owner’s (or builder’s) responsibility to hire a local professional to review and seal or stamp the plans if required by the building department. This must be handled by an engineer or architect licensed in the state/province where the plan is to be built.

Q:Could you please tell me the size of the smaller windows (i.e., utility room, etc.)? Thank you!
