If you own an older Butler building and need to reinstall, expand, permit or bring it up to code, we can help you recover the original engineering drawings from Butler’s archive records or create new certified reconstruction plans from the ground up. Whether your building was relocated, damaged, sold or simply never had documentation, our engineering team gives you a clear path forward.

Owners of older Butler buildings call us regularly with the same challenge. They have a structure they want to reinstall, sell, permit or modify and they have no engineering documentation to work with. Original drawings may have been lost, destroyed or simply never transferred when the building changed hands.

We initiate a formal paid search through our engineering archive records to locate original drawings for your building. This service is recommended as the first step for any owner seeking documentation for an existing Butler structure. A flat plan search fee applies regardless of outcome.

This service is available to building owners, contractors, municipalities and developers across all Butler building types and vintages.

An existing Butler building without engineering documentation is a liability. Missing plans can delay permits, block sales, prevent expansions and expose owners to compliance risk. Reconstruction plans restore the documentation your building should have had all along and give you a reliable engineering foundation for every decision that follows.

Whether your building is 10 years old or 40 years old, Butler’s pre-engineered systems were built to last and the engineering behind them deserves to be properly documented. Our team brings the technical expertise, manufacturer relationships and permitting experience to deliver reconstruction plans that hold up under review and give your project a clear path forward.
