In the construction and development industry, "As-Built" represents a plan that reveals the EXISTING measurements and circumstances of a developing, space, or area. So As-Built drawings should display the developing exactly as it currently is, in contrast to a style illustrating which reveals the designed or suggested structure of the building. This is a critical difference, because a designed building almost never matches exactly to the unique style sketches. There are many reasons building drawings why can be incorrect. Often, there are problems that occur during development which force the specialist to make modifications from the unique programs. Or, over time the developing might have gone through several remodeling and/or renter developments, which were never properly documented in the developing programs. Whatever the case, an As-Built drawing is designed to papers the current measurements and structure of the building, and display the current circumstances "as-is"

Nowadays, there are several different conditions and spellings used when making reference to As-Built drawings: Few of which includes:

€ Current Circumstances Drawings
€ History Drawings
€ Calculated Drawings
€ Asbuilt (drawings, programs, etc..)
€ As-Build or Asbuilts (drawings, programs, etc... )
