Process · From Architect Plans

Engineering From Architectural PDF, CAD or Revit Plans

The most common way Apex Grid starts a project: the architect sends us their drawings — PDF, CAD, or Revit — and we take it from there, producing our own engineering files from the architectural base rather than waiting for a BIM model coordination process.

What This Engineering Scope Covers

How Apex Grid Handles This

Apex Grid Engineering is licensed in 49 states — every U.S. state except Alaska. Engineering stamping and licensure are confirmed for each project jurisdiction. We engineer permit engineering scopes as a standalone service or as part of a coordinated structural, MEP, civil, and geotechnical package.

We work from architectural PDFs, contractor sketches, or existing CAD files and produce stamped engineering documents, permit drawings, and calculations that building departments accept the first time.
