      3. You and your builder are responsible for checking the Assets prior to construction to verify the overall accuracy.
      4. You and your builder are responsible for deciding for the final selection of materials such as masonry, floor joists, lumber, structural members, construction panels, roofing, etc., all of which can create variations in dimension and details.

Any use of the Assets, and/or modifications of the Assets, by you, builders or others on your behalf, is done at your own risk.
    2. Assets might include plumbing, heating or air conditioning drawings, but due to the wide variety of local codes and climatic conditions, we recommend that you have a local electrical engineer, mechanical engineer or builder provide such of these drawings as may be required for permits and construction.

You acknowledge our recommendation that you have a local designer or licensed engineer review the Assets and provide a site-specific foundation design if found necessary.
    4. Assets provide ideas and concepts and are not intended to be complete in all respects and details. Variations in standard sizes (e.g., of windows and doors), and brands, thicknesses, types and uses of different materials can change details. Varying local codes, ordinances, regulations, foundation requirements, and the layout of electrical, mechanical, and plumbing systems may also require changes of details.

  6. Feedback. You may choose to or we may invite you to submit comments or ideas about Arch, including without limitation about how to improve Arch or our products (“Ideas”). By submitting any Idea, you agree that your disclosure is gratuitous, voluntary, and without restriction and will not place Arch under any fiduciary or other obligation, and that we are free to use the Idea without any attribution or additional compensation to you, and/or to disclose the Idea on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone.
