Record drawings

Drawings documenting the completed work based on the information and verification process specified for their preparation.

Why it matters

The label does not establish that every concealed condition was surveyed. Distinguish contractor-marked records from independently verified as-built information.

In practice

A project example

General educational guidance from KOW Building Consultants. Examples are illustrative, not project records. The applicable contract, standard, program, and jurisdiction control the requirements for a specific assignment.
