Reviewers should - Use Checklists when reviewing any type of VA construction project for the following disciplines:

Architectural, Electrical, Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning

(HVAC),

Plumbing, Fire Protection, and Sanitary, Site and Landscape, Steam Distribution, and Steam Generation/

Reviewers should – Ensure that DESIGN REVIEW Submission Instructions

(PG-18-15) for Schematic, Design Development, and Construction Documents are followed for various types of VA construction projects.

Reviewers should – Ensure that every VA construction project is in compliance with all life safety issues.

Reviewers should - Be aware that these checklists are not all-inclusive but only provide minimum review items.
