Building Code Analysis for Arizona Commercial Projects
We review building-code and accessibility requirements for commercial projects, including proposed uses, occupancy, exit routes, building size, and construction type. This review informs the design and permit documents and can also help owners evaluate an existing space.
When to start a code review
When evaluating a property or lease for a proposed business use.
When adapting an existing building or suite to a different use.
When a tenant improvement changes the layout, number of occupants, or accessibility of a space.
When planning additions or renovations to commercial and civic buildings.
Code review and construction details
We use the code analysis to inform the layout, building systems, and construction details. We coordinate questions that affect the work of structural and other engineering consultants.
Our principal’s building-enclosure experience supports the development of details for the exterior walls, roof, and connections between building systems.
Frequently asked questions
Can you review a space before I commit to it?+
Yes. We can review the proposed use and available building information to identify code considerations and questions to resolve before design begins. A preliminary layout can help assess how the space would accommodate your plans.
Is code analysis included in your design services?+
Yes. Code analysis informs our architectural design and permit documents. We can also discuss a separate review when you are evaluating a property or defining a project.
Do you review accessibility?+
Yes. Accessibility review is part of our architectural services for commercial spaces. We consider access, circulation, and the facilities included in the project.
