SFH with Basement & Two-Story ADU

Seeking a California-licensed Architectural and Engineering (A&E) team (or a highly coordinated joint venture of an Architect, Structural Engineer, and MEP Engineer) to deliver a complete, permit-ready design and construction blueprint package. Two-Story Single-Family Home (SFH) with a basement. A detached Two-Story Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). To maximize construction speed and structural efficiency, bypassing traditional wood framing and standard poured concrete. Both structures will utilize Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) below grade and Light-Gauge Steel (LGS) framing for the framing. Responding to Project, Please Provide: 1. Your flat-rate proposal for the full scope (broken down by Main SFH and ADU). 2. Proof of active California Design/Architecture/Structural Engineering license. 3. Examples of previous projects utilizing Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and/or Light-Gauge Steel (LGS) systems under California seismic regulations. 4. Your estimated timeline to deliver. Legal, Regional, & Local Code Requirements (Non-Negotiable) To successfully pass Mountain View’s rigorous plan-check, the final submittal package must strictly comply with and explicitly incorporate the following California legal mandates: California Building & Residential Codes (CBC / CRC): All blueprints must be fully compliant with the current adopted editions of the California Building, Residential, Plumbing, Mechanical, and Electrical codes. California Title 24, Part 6 (Energy Compliance): The MEP/Architectural package must include certified Title 24 Energy Calculations and compliance forms. The envelope design must explicitly leverage the continuous high-R-value thermal performance of the ICF blocks to clear local energy mandates. CALGreen Compliance (Title 24, Part 11): Integration of all mandatory California Green Building Standards checklists directly onto the architectural sheets. Seismic Design Category D/E & Liquefaction Mitigation: The property sits within a state-designated Seismic Hazard Zone for Liquefaction. The architectural foundations and structural calculations must strictly incorporate data from our forthcoming site-specific Geotechnical Report to handle potential seismic settlement and lateral shear forces. Mountain View Building Department Plan-Check Support: The contracted team must provide full technical support, including addressing and resolving all plan-check correction comments issued by the City of Mountain View until building permits are successfully pulled.
