Code & Engineering

This 3047 sq ft 4-bedroom two-story house plan is delivered as a permit-ready architectural set, developed for R-3 single-family occupancy under the California Residential Code and adaptable to other Western US jurisdictions.

Architectural deliverables include the floor plans for both stories, four-sided exterior elevations, building cross-sections, and dimensioned framing intent for the roof and floor systems. The design is developed against the current California Residential Code (CRC) with structural detailing intended to follow ASCE 7 and the NDS for wood members.

The Structural Set package is offered as a separate scope and includes lateral analysis, gravity load takedown, shear-wall design, and component-level connection details — all sized to the specific site's seismic and wind conditions rather than to a generic California average.

The foundation system is selected during a separate site-specific design scope. Slab-on-grade is the default for level, well-drained parcels; raised crawl-space on continuous stem walls is the choice on expansive-clay or high-moisture sites; pier-and-grade-beam systems handle hillside lots and soft-soil regions where the geotechnical report calls for deeper bearing.

As a single-family residence (R-3 occupancy), this plan is subject to local zoning height limits — typically 25 to 35 feet in California residential zones, though specific limits vary by jurisdiction and any applicable hillside, fire-zone, or coastal overlays. The plan's 18 ft ridge height should be verified against the parcel's zoning before submitting for permit. If the ridge needs to be lowered for a specific overlay, HOA restriction, or view-corridor easement, plan customization is available to adjust the roof slope or elevation accordingly.

Available optional services: PE-stamped structural calculations, plan customization for site-specific adaptations (roof slope, elevation, interior layout), custom foundation design sized to the geotechnical report, structural observation visits during framing and finish, and permit support tailored to jurisdiction-specific requirements.
