Preparation of detailed building plans for development and alterations is part and parcel of the construction industry. The plans are delivered to relevant authorities for checking for conformance and approval.

Checking compliance against regulations requires the ability to interpret submitted plans, remember seemingly endless list of regulations and understand how they apply practically. The task is one that requires knowledge but resource-intensive and dreadfully mundane. With a process that typically reverts back-and-forth between the regulatory bodies & submitting organization for clarifications and changes, one can expect it to be a time-consuming and costly activity.

The standardization of construction-related CAD drawing objects by IAI, has made the complex task of automating plan checks possible. FORNAX™ was developed specifically to perform automated checks on electronic drawings against building and land regulations for design compliance and generate compliance reports. With this revolutionary product, users can perform building and land design assessments in a quick and consistent manner.

Provided with summary reports, reviews becomes simplified. The examining officer can quickly make decisions, e.g. grant a waiver for non-compliance. As a result, this innovative solution offers a giant leap in productivity, not possible in conventional methods.
