Storage-Rack Permit — Intake

Fill in the project details below, then generate a draft review package. The form is pre-filled with example data so you can try it immediately — replace it with your real values. This tool prepares a draft for a licensed engineer; it does not make code determinations on its own.

How this works (4 steps)

Fill the intake and click Generate draft review package to see the report.
Download the Engineer Verification Brief and give it to a licensed engineer to fill in and verify.
Enter their answers on the Verify data screen (or in the data files).
Re-generate — verified values fill in and the readiness checklist clears toward “ready”. Nothing here is valid until reviewed and stamped by a licensed engineer.
