What the AI Civil Checker Catches
AI cross-references grading plans, drainage designs, utility layouts, and site plans to surface coordination issues humans miss under time pressure.
Grading & Earthwork
- Grading elevation conflicts between plans and details
- Spot elevation inconsistencies across sheets
- Cut/fill volume calculation mismatches
- Slope violations affecting drainage
- Grading conflicts with building pad elevations
Drainage & Stormwater
- Drainage pipe sizing vs watershed calculations
- Storm inlet locations conflicting with utilities
- Detention pond volume vs release rate conflicts
- Flow direction inconsistencies
- Stormwater management plan vs site plan conflicts
Transportation & Alignment
- Roadway alignment vs profile inconsistencies
- Fire lane width and turning radius violations
- Parking layout dimension conflicts
- ADA route slope and clearance violations
- Curb return radius conflicts with fire access
Utilities & Coordination
- Utility crossing conflicts and clearance violations
- Water main sizing vs fire flow requirements
- Sanitary sewer slope and invert conflicts
- Utility easement encroachments
- Coordination gaps with building MEP systems
Codes & Standards Checked
AI auto-detects applicable codes from your project or you can upload specific requirements.
Local municipal codes and ordinances
IFC fire access requirements
ADA site accessibility standards
State DOT requirements
EPA stormwater regulations
Local drainage district requirements
AASHTO geometric design standards
Municipal utility standards
Automatic Code Detection
InspectMind AI scans your project documents to identify which codes apply—state codes, local ordinances, fire codes, and more. If the codes are publicly available PDFs, we automatically pull them in. You can also upload any local requirements (City of Austin, Houston, Dallas, etc.) that may not be in our database.
Council Standards, Rechecks, and Pricing
Civil projects change by council. Upload the standards that apply, then recheck each revision without losing control of cost or schedule.
Upload council specs separately
Attach council standards, drainage manuals, or road design criteria as PDFs alongside your drawings.
Re-upload revised sets
Each resubmission is treated as a fresh check so fixes are verified and new issues are caught.
Per-sheet pricing
Small projects stay affordable while costs remain transparent across every upload.
Fast turnaround
Smaller civil sets return in hours, while larger packages are reviewed within a day.
When to Use AI Plan Checking
Pre-Permit Review
Catch issues before submitting to the city or county. Reduce permit review cycles and back-and-forth.
Coordination Check
Cross-check civil drawings against architectural site plans, structural foundations, and MEP site utilities.
QA/QC Before Bid
Review civil drawings for completeness and coordination before they go out to bid. Price accurately.
Addenda Review
When site plans change, AI identifies what's affected across all related drawings and specs.
Why Civil Engineers Use InspectMind
Handles Massive CAD PDFs
Civil drawings are often huge—hundreds of sheets, multi-GB files. InspectMind handles 10,000+ sheet sets and processes them in hours, not days. No file size limits.
Cross-Discipline Coordination
AI doesn't just check civil drawings in isolation. It cross-references your site plans against architectural, structural, and MEP drawings to catch coordination issues that cause field conflicts.
One Issue Pays for the Review
We typically find hundreds of issues per project. Even one caught grading conflict or drainage miscalculation can save tens of thousands in field rework. At $100–$500 per review, the ROI is immediate.
