drawings

Plan Set Comparison now opens the revised drawings with changes marked directly on the PDF. Revision clouds and numbered callouts put each change in context, with a searchable change list alongside the plans. Select a change to jump to its location and compare close-ups of the original and revised detail.

Use Download compiled PDF to take the marked-up set out of Specset. The export includes your annotation edits and the changes you choose to include, with an optional change-log cover that links to the revised sheets. Export the full comparison or select specific sheets, ready to share with your team.

Comparisons are also more accurate when drawings have been reorganized. On redrawn sheets, the agent compares individual details, schedules, and notes to separate content changes from layout shifts. It recognizes renumbered sheets and follows details that move to another sheet, reporting the move and any edits without counting the same detail as both removed and newly added.

See Plan Comparison for the review and export workflow.

Design Quality Review works spec-first: it walks your specification sections and checks the design against them. The new Drawing Review agent works from the other direction, leading with the sheets themselves.

• Every sheet gets its own reviewer. The agent fans out across the drawing set in parallel, one review per sheet.
• Cross-discipline checks. Each sheet is compared against the related sheets it coordinates with, across disciplines: structural against architectural, mechanical against plumbing, plans against their schedules and details.
• Coordination defects surface as issues. Clashes, conflicting values, and broken callouts or cross-references land in your Issues list with citations to the exact sheet regions involved.

Run it alongside Design Quality Review rather than instead of it. The two catch different classes of problems. Read more in Design review.

Projects with multiple buildings often ship a spec book and drawing set per building, with the same section and sheet numbers repeated in each. Specset now supports building areas to keep them straight.

• Per-building namespaces. Assign an area to each spec or drawing file, and every extracted section and sheet inherits it. Section 09 91 23 in Building A and Building B are now two distinct records.
• Grouped browsing. The specifications list groups by area and then division, so each building reads as its own spec book.
• Area-aware answers. Search, Q&A, and reviews understand areas, disambiguate duplicate numbers, and can be scoped to a single building.

Areas are opt-in per project under project settings. Read more in Specifications and Drawings.
