Constructing a building is not an easy or simple task, but is a systematically coordinated procedure that includes various stages and the effort of several people from designers, architects, engineers, contractors and labourers to owners. That is why clear and detailed documentation of all the steps involved in the construction is very necessary to have an error-free workflow and thus to get a good output.

Construction documentation is a set of comprehensive drawings which provides sequential data related to the steps of the construction procedure. It also includes detailed information on the building components. The information in the construction documentation is useful to those involved in the construction industries such as builders, contractors etc. Construction documentation sets are used to communicate the design intent and specifications to the design professionals, contractors, engineers, manufacturers, and suppliers.
