NiyamX learns your standards from your guidelines PDF, then reads a drawing set sheet by sheet. Every layout that breaks a rule comes back marked up with the measurement and the clause it breaks.
For QSR, cafe and bakery layouts. Upload a DXF, or a PDF drawing set.
Upload your brand guidelines PDF. NiyamX drafts the rules a plan can be checked against, quotes the clause each comes from, and scores its confidence in each.
Add a DXF, or a PDF set of any length. Every sheet is named by discipline, so the power, plumbing, fire and CCTV layouts get read too, not only the floor plan.
Confirm the equipment and rooms NiyamX found, then run the check. Distances and counts are measured from the geometry in code, and every rule is judged on those numbers.
Findings land on the plan with the measurement and the clause behind each one, next to a score worked out in code. Download the lot as a PDF for the architect.
Every open finding comes back with a fix: what to move, add or verify, how much work it will be, and which sheet the change has to land on. Send it on as a PDF.
NiyamX reads your standards page by page and converts every measurement to millimetres. The original wording stays next to the rule, so you can compare the two before any drawing is checked against it.
Kitchen standards, page 14
4.2 Fryers shall be positioned with a clear distance of not less than 600 mm (24 in) from any griddle, charbroiler or open-flame appliance, measured between the nearest edges.
Fryer to griddle clearance
One of three rules drafted from this clause.
Distances are measured from the geometry, never estimated by the model, and severity comes from your rule. When the drawing set can't prove something either way, the finding says so instead of failing the store.
Koregaon Park, Pune. Revision 3
1 fail, 1 possibly missing, 14 passed
Fryer to griddle clearance
Measured 300 mm. The rule requires at least 600 mm.
Kitchen standards 4.2
Hand sink within 3 m of prep
No hand sink found on this plan. Check whether it is drawn on another sheet.
Food safety 7.1
Queue aisle in front of counter
Measured 1,200 mm. The rule requires at least 1,000 mm.
Front of house 3.4
For every open finding, NiyamX says what to move, add or verify, and which sheet the change lands on: move a griddle and its socket on the power layout moves with it. When stores need a summary instead, it writes the report, for one drawing or your whole portfolio.
Shift griddle #13 at least 300 mm east along the cooking line, so the gap to fryer #12 reaches 600 mm. The prep table to its right has room to move with it.
Check the exhaust hood still covers the griddle after the move.
Saathi AI sits on every screen, so you never leave the drawing to ask. It answers from the standards you uploaded and shows the passage it used. Point it at a store and it reads that drawing's confirmed equipment, rooms and findings too. When your standards don't cover something, it says so rather than filling the gap with general industry practice.
How far does the hand sink have to be from the prep table?
Within 2,000 mm of the prep table, measured between nearest edges. On Koregaon Park revision 3 the hand sink sits 1,400 mm away, so it passes. Your standards set no distance for the dishwash area.
Food safety, page 7
A hand wash basin shall be provided within not more than 2,000 mm of every food preparation surface.
