# Title 24 Compliance

Title 24 work often becomes a problem when it is treated as a last-step report instead of a project decision. Strata handles the calculations and documentation with the permit path, design priorities, and construction reality in mind.

## Summary

Title 24 reports and energy calculations prepared for California permit review and real project constraints.

Strata prepares Title 24 documentation that fits the design, the schedule, and the way the project will actually be built. The goal is to reduce late revisions and keep plan check moving.

## Best Fit

Custom homes, multifamily projects, additions, remodels, and light commercial jobs that need California energy compliance reports prepared clearly for permit review.

## What This Includes

- Title 24 reports for permit submittal
- Coordination with architects, designers, and builders
- Compliance strategy that fits the project scope

## Outcomes

- A Title 24 path that supports the permit set
- Fewer late changes caused by disconnected energy assumptions
- Clearer coordination between design decisions and compliance requirements

## How the work moves

- **1:** Review the project constraints - Plans, property type, timing, and performance goals are reviewed first so the compliance path starts with the right assumptions.
- **2:** Shape the compliance strategy - Title 24, CALGreen, and field requirements are translated into a scope the project team can actually carry through design and construction.
- **3:** Deliver permit-ready documentation - Reports, notes, and supporting documents are prepared for city review and for smoother coordination inside the project team.
- **4:** Support field verification - Testing and inspection are coordinated so the approved path carries through installation, verification, and final closeout.

## FAQs

### When should Title 24 compliance start?

Start before the permit set is locked. Early energy modeling helps confirm envelope, glazing, HVAC, water heating, and HERS assumptions before late changes become expensive.

### What does Strata need for a Title 24 report?

A current plan set, project city, occupancy or property type, window and assembly assumptions, HVAC and water heating notes, and any plan-check comments if the project is already in review.

### Can Strata help after plan-check comments?

Yes. Strata can review the comments, update the compliance path, and coordinate revisions so the Title 24 documentation matches the permit response.
