Trade engines NEW · included on Pro & Firm

DETERMINISTIC MATH.
NOT AN AI CHAT WRAPPER.

Electrical, mechanical, low-voltage and structural risk checks, built directly into the takeoff pipeline you already run in Blueprint Auditor and the risk engine in AI Estimator — not a general-purpose model guessing at a drawing, and not a web search for pricing. Supplier pricing behind every check is encrypted at rest and never forwarded to a third-party AI API.

Circuit & code validation

ELECTRICAL

Panel schedules are cross-checked against every traced home run — not just counted off the plan.

  • Vector layers on the electrical sheets are traced back to the panel that feeds them
  • Every circuit is checked against its breaker rating for continuous-load overload
  • A partition missing its fire-rated box gets flagged the same pass
  • Supplier pricing behind each circuit stays local, encrypted — never web-searched
≤ 80% breaker load, or it's flagged

Cross-discipline clash detector

MECHANICAL / HVAC

A mechanical takeoff is only as good as the structure underneath it — so this one checks.

  • Roof-mounted equipment is cross-referenced against the structural drawings for dunnage
  • No support found anywhere in the structural set is flagged before the roof is framed
  • The spatial mapping runs in its own microservice, off the request path
Roof units ≥ 500 lbs trigger a support check

Cable path & max-distance enforcement

LOW VOLTAGE & SECURITY

A device count doesn't catch a run that's too long to work — this measures the actual path.

  • Exact point-to-point cable length is calculated through the ceiling plenum
  • Every run is measured from its IDF closet to the device, not estimated
  • A run past the limit forces the closet addition into the bid, not a change order later
≤ 295 ft (90m) per run, Cat6 limit

Fire rating & access-control auditor

DOORS & HARDWARE

A fire rating is only real with the hardware it was tested with — so the hardware gets checked too.

  • The hardware schedule is cross-referenced against the life-safety and egress sheets
  • A fire partition without a labeled, fire-rated closer is flagged before hardware ships
  • An egress door missing its panic hardware is caught the same pass
2-hr partition requires a rated closer

Strict structural dependencies

CONCRETE & STRUCTURAL

For a foundational trade, a model guessing at volume is dangerous — so this one does the math instead.

  • Cubic yards come from strict deterministic math on footing, wall and slab dimensions
  • The result is cross-checked against the geotech report's allowable bearing capacity
  • Historical takeoffs cache locally first, syncing only once encrypted
Flags designs below the geotech bearing figure

Where this runs

NOT A SIXTH PROGRAM. PART OF THE FIVE YOU ALREADY OPEN.

These checks aren't a separate subscription. Electrical, mechanical/structural, low-voltage and door-hardware run inside Blueprint Auditor's takeoff pipeline, and the concrete/structural bearing-risk check runs inside AI Estimator's risk engine — cross-referenced against the manual in SpecChecker and the buyout in ScopeGuard once the full suite is on the job. That's why the trade engines are bundled from Pro up rather than sold on their own.
