ILLUSTRATIVE REVIEW PATHS

Three sample paths
through a review.

These simplified examples show how a difference can move from its source to a question, evidence, and a next step. They are not customer stories, live project results, or engineering assessments.

SAMPLE REVIEW / 01
Source → question → evidence → decision

Keep the original reference visible. Let qualified professionals decide what the evidence means.

01 / CONNECTION DETAIL

Detail versus note.

A connection detail shows four bolts. A note on the same sheet calls for six. The scope of the note still needs to be checked.

S-501 · Detail 3 · General Note 3
  1. 01SOURCE

    Detail 3 shows four bolts; General Note 3 says “Provide 6 bolts at connection.”

  2. 02QUESTION

    Which bolt count is intended for this connection?

  3. 03EVIDENCE

    Keep the detail and the note together, each with its sheet reference.

  4. 04DECISION

    Ask the responsible engineer to confirm and record the next step.

02 / DIMENSION CHAIN

Segments versus overall.

Two segments read 2,400 mm and 3,200 mm. The overall dimension reads 6,000 mm between the same grids.

S-102 · Grid A to C
  1. 01SOURCE

    The segment values and overall dimension appear on the same sheet.

  2. 02QUESTION

    Which dimension governs this span?

  3. 03EVIDENCE

    The segments sum to 5,600 mm, a 400 mm difference. Confirm endpoints and units.

  4. 04DECISION

    Ask the design team to confirm before the value is carried into detailing.

Illustrative example · not a customer story or engineering conclusion.

03 / MEMBER REFERENCE

Plan versus schedule.

Member B12 is labelled W12×26 on the framing plan and W12×30 in the beam schedule.

S-101 · Framing plan · S-301 · Beam schedule
  1. 01SOURCE

    Locate B12 on both sheets and note each sheet’s issue date.

  2. 02QUESTION

    Which section designation applies to B12?

  3. 03EVIDENCE

    The member mark agrees while the section designation differs.

  4. 04DECISION

    Ask the design team to reconcile the references and record the decision.
