Project Deliverables

Project deliverables received by clients on a typical Vertical Access job include a letter of report and annotated elevations with keyed photographs.

AutoCAD drawings indicate the locations and extent of defects while photographs and written descriptions explain the observed conditions and possible underlying causes of deterioration.

Vertical Access provides photos and annotated AutoCAD drawings in digital formats if requested by the client. Other materials furnished for a project are videotapes and building material samples obtained during the investigation.

Information collected during the survey may be organized and presented to the client in tabular, spreadsheet or database formats.

Interactive, web-based technology is being developed for use with Vertical Access' project deliverables. "Smart" drawings with associated or embedded attribute information make greater amounts of information more easily accessible to the client.
