Hi Guys,
I have planning consent in place and I will be using a private building control firm.
My architects plans are done to scale on A1 at 50:1 and 100:1.
I'm just wondering how much tolerance the planning department allow for? Converting the scale plans from 100:1 even measuring with a digital vernier gauge the thickness of 2 lines on the plans can be the difference between something measuring 20mm and 21mm. At a ratio of 100:1 that would translate to a wall being 100mm either way?
Do the planning department or the BCO even measure up once the build is under way?
