Overview
Roof Plans are architectural drawings that depict the layout and design of a building's roof, including slopes, edges and roof details of the primary structure. They give architects, designers and contractors an accurate base drawing for renovation, design or construction work.
This article covers what Roof Plans are, what is included with the deliverable, where the add-on is available and important notes about capture requirements and delivery.

What a Roof Plan Is

Important Notes
Keep these points in mind when ordering a Roof Plan:
- Roof Plans are typically delivered an additional 1 day after the DWG, 3D Model or Advanced Drawing Packages, depending on the size and complexity of the property and the current volume of iGUIDEs in the queue
- Advanced capture requirements apply to this deliverable — see the Advanced iGUIDE Capture Techniques article for full scan specifications
- Chief Architect can import DWG and DXF files. We provide files in standard 2018 DWG format for broad compatibility, but we don't support external software platforms—any compatibility issues, version mismatches, or import errors are outside our scope.
