SHELL DRAWINGS Clause Samples

The SHELL DRAWINGS clause defines the requirements and responsibilities related to the provision and use of architectural or engineering drawings that depict the basic structure or 'shell' of a building or project. Typically, this clause specifies who must supply these drawings, the level of detail they must include (such as walls, floors, and structural elements), and how they are to be used in the design or construction process. By clearly outlining these expectations, the clause ensures that all parties have a consistent reference for the project's foundational elements, reducing the risk of misunderstandings or errors during subsequent design and construction phases.
