2D Drafting Services in Colorado
Precision architectural drafting, BIM coordination, and permit-ready drawing packages engineered specifically for Colorado building codes and regional climate requirements.
Do you provide 2D Drafting Services in Colorado?
Yes. Our Colorado practice has completed 298 projects across drafting, bim, rendering work, serving Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora and every county. Drawings comply with Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) fire-hardening codes, heavy snow loads (up to 120+ psf in mountain counties), and Denver Green Code for Zone 5B (Cool-Dry / Mountain High Altitude) conditions, engineered for SDC B-D (Moderate to High) seismic classification and 90 mph design wind.
Standard turnaround is a fixed-fee proposal within 24 business hours and drawing sets in 3–5 business days. Typical deliverables include vector dwg / dxf cad drawing packages, high-resolution multi-page pdf permit sets, and every sheet passes a code and constructability check before issue.

Mountain modern, timber frame, expansive glazing with low-e triple glazing, and urban infill.
For 2d drafting services in Colorado, our drawings incorporate wildland-urban interface (wui) fire-hardening codes, heavy snow loads (up to 120+ psf in mountain counties), and denver green code and are optimized for zone 5b (cool-dry / mountain high altitude) — ensuring permit approval in Denver, Colorado Springs and every county.
Structural loading in Colorado is governed by SDC B-D (Moderate to High) seismic classification and a 90 mph design wind speed. Our team sizes connections, envelope attachments and load paths against those values before issue, drawing on 298 completed Colorado projects across drafting, bim, rendering work.
What does 2D Drafting Services include?
Apex Architecture Inc provides specialised 2D Drafting Services across the United States. The engagement is run out of our Drafting & CAD practice: a dedicated lead reviews scope, our CAD and BIM technicians produce the deliverables, and every sheet passes a code and constructability check before it is issued. Typical output for this discipline is vector dwg / dxf cad drawing packages.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know regarding turnaround, municipal permits, and coordination.
01. Are your 2d drafting services compliant with Colorado building codes?
Yes. All drawings and models prepared for Colorado incorporate specific regional standards including Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) fire-hardening codes, heavy snow loads (up to 120+ psf in mountain counties), and Denver Green Code and local climatic considerations (Zone 5B (Cool-Dry / Mountain High Altitude)).
02. How do seismic and wind loads affect 2d drafting services in Colorado?
Colorado is classified SDC B-D (Moderate to High) with a design wind speed of 90 mph. Both inputs are carried into the drawing set — footings, connections, envelope attachments and load paths are drawn to suit before the package ever reaches plan review.
03. Do you provide services in major metropolitan areas throughout Colorado?
Yes, we actively service projects in Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora, Boulder as well as suburban and rural jurisdictions throughout Colorado.
04. What experience do you already have in Colorado?
298 Colorado projects have been delivered by our team so far, concentrated in Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora. The disciplines most often commissioned in the state are drafting, bim, rendering.
05. What is the typical turnaround time for a project in Colorado?
Standard drafting and modeling packages are delivered within 3 to 7 business days, with expedited 24-to-48-hour rush options available for urgent permit deadlines.
