What You Can Do

You extract detailed specifications and construction requirements directly from AutoCAD DWG project descriptions and briefs, then generate complete technical documentation packages. You analyze drawing relationships to identify coordination conflicts, material inconsistencies, and compliance issues—delivering construction-ready specifications, material schedules, and coordination reports that architects and builders need.

Features

Specification extraction

Parse DWG metadata and descriptions to generate detailed technical specs organized by building systems (structural, MEP, finishes)

Construction documentation generation

Create multi-page technical documents with structured layouts, cross-references, and drawing callouts

Drawing coordination analysis

Detect conflicts between disciplines (clashes, dimension mismatches, spatial overlaps) with remediation recommendations

Material and component schedules

Automatically compile finishes, fixtures, equipment lists with quantities and specifications from drawing sets

Technical annotation and markup

Generate drawing-specific notes, details, and revision tracking tied to AutoCAD sections and layers

Compliance verification

Cross-check specifications against building codes (IBC, ADA, energy standards) and flag deviations

Automated report generation

Produce professional PDF documents with tables, diagrams, cover pages, and indexes

Example 2: Drawing Coordination Alert

Conflict Detected: Ceiling Height Mismatch

  • Architectural: 3rd floor ceiling @ 9'-8" (Floor Plan A-2.1)
  • MEP: HVAC ductwork requires 10'-0" clearance (Drawing M-3.2)
  • Resolution: Relocate ductwork to bulkhead or adjust slab height

  1. 6" brick veneer (Grade A, IRA ≤28)
  2. 1" cavity with drainage mat
  3. 6" CMU block (f'm=1500 psi)
  4. Interior insulation: R-13 mineral fiber
  5. Gypsum board finish (fire-rated)
