Blueprint Auditor, in order.

Blueprint Auditor

Read a drawing set: quantities, code findings and the sheets they came from. Included from Field upwards.

1. Open a set

PDF, DWG, DXF or IFC, uploaded as it is. There is no conversion step and no drawing preparation: the file you hold is the file it reads.

2. Pick the trades

Scoping the audit decides which rules are reported, not how hard the drawing is read. Every reader runs on every file either way.

3. Read the findings

Each one carries its clause and the sheet it came from. A rule the drawing cannot answer is printed as a checklist item and never dressed up as a finding.

4. Measure what you need

Lengths, areas, counts and volumes against your own conditions and cost codes, out as CSV or a workbook whose totals are formulas.

5. Mark it up and send it

Pins, clouds, callouts and stamps, with the marked-up sheets exported as a PDF worth sending and the pins numbered with a legend.

What it will not do

• An audit is a first pass, not a permit approval. A clean run means nothing obvious, never compliant.
• A scanned sheet is read by OCR, and OCR on a dense schedule is the weakest part of the path. The audit says which pages it fell back on.
• Quantities rest on the scale. A sheet that states none is left uncalibrated rather than measured at a guess.

Every program opens a sample set on the first day, so none of this has to be read before trying it. See the sample project.
