Residential Drafting Projects: Sample Work
Examples of the residential drafting projects we produce: DA submissions, construction documentation, granny flat plans, dual occupancy layouts, and extension drawings — all prepared for Australian council requirements.
DA Submission Drawings
Council-ready development application drawings including site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, shadow diagrams and BASIX certificate co-ordination.
Construction Documentation
Builder-ready CDC and construction issue drawings with full dimensions, schedules, framing layouts, and detail callouts.
Granny Flat & Secondary Dwellings
Secondary dwelling plans complying with State Environmental Planning Policy (Affordable Rental Housing). Compact, code-compliant layouts.
Dual Occupancy & Townhouse
Multi-unit residential documentation including party wall details, separate amenity, fire-rated construction notes.
Renovation & Extension Plans
Existing condition surveys converted to CAD, then design overlay showing addition. Demolition plan separated from construction plan.
AS1684 Timber Framing
Light timber frame structural plans showing wall framing, roof framing, bracing schedules — referencing AS1684.2 simple framed construction.
What These Residential Drafting Projects Share
Across the residential drafting projects shown here, the constants matter more than the differences: every set is scaled and dimensioned to what the approving council or certifier actually checks, NCC and relevant Australian Standards are referenced on the sheets rather than assumed, and drawings are structured so the next professional in the chain — engineer, certifier, builder — can pick the set up without a phone call. DA packages carry the site analysis, shadow diagrams and elevations each state’s lodgement portal expects; construction sets add the sections, details and schedules a builder prices from; and secondary-dwelling work is checked against the specific granny-flat provisions of the state it sits in. Owner-clients get the same drawing standard as our builder accounts — the set you lodge is the set a professional would lodge. Turnaround on these residential drafting projects typically runs one to three weeks depending on scope, with the 24-hour fixed-price quote setting both the cost and the delivery date before any drawing starts. Markups from your builder or certifier during the review round are folded in at no charge — a drawing set that fails at lodgement is our problem to fix, not yours to renegotiate.
