We typically include drawings in our project manual. For most projects we print approximately 10 project manuals and send 3 of them to planning rooms and hand them out to all the interested contractors at a the pre-bid conference. We usually charge contractors $100 since we have to print and bind the book. Some people call a project manual a "spec book", but it's actually much more than just specs. The specs are kind of like a "chapter" of the project manual....

So these are actual rooms and contractors can come in and study the plans, I am curious ?
