Field notes
The workflow starts with an address and town-level snow, wind and frost values, then applies a stated basis of the 2021 International Residential Code with Massachusetts 780 CMR amendments. The page says its software produced a 10-sheet example set in 75 seconds, with foundation, floor, roof, elevations, sections and details; a person reviews each set, while cases outside prescriptive limits go to licensed review.
