A browser-based toolkit for checking plans against UK planning and Building Regulations guidance, recording decisions, and exporting marked-up drawings.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-15 issue.
For
UK building designers and control professionals
Worth noticing
Checks identify the guidance and edition used, record who tested what and when, and label gaps “Not assessed.”

Field notes

The reference list reaches beyond Building Regulations to the National Planning Policy Framework, local planning documents, HSE workplace guidance, British Standards, and ISO. The homepage connects the records to professional duties and says that results and design notes travel with the drawing. It also names Chen Qi in the copyright line and includes a “Why I built QCheck” section.
