Construction documentation encompasses the detailed plans, drawings, specifications, and other documents required for the construction, renovation, or restoration of a heritage building or structure. This documentation serves as a blueprint for contractors and crafts people, guiding them in executing work that respects and preserves the site’s heritage values.
