The following table describes the typical number of plan copies needed to build one of our Low Energy Use Homes. Our Basic Plan Set includes just one copy of each page, for a total of approximately fifteen pages. Our pages are printed on 11x17 paper, in high resolution, either 1/8" or 3/16" scale, depending on the size of the house. Our local Building Departments have expressed an appreciation for this size of page, because of the readability, and ease of viewing multiple pages at one time. It is also much easier to get additional copies made if you should need them.
Our Full Building Set includes the total number of plan pages shown on the spreadsheet below, at a slightly increased price to cover our additional costs.
Our Basic Plan Set and Full Building Set both include the heat loss calculations, Heating/Cooling system specifications, SIPS shop drawings, and Built Green® checklist. Plan
