Hello Everyone
How is it really with construction drawings, do these have to be followed slavishly, for example?
My constructor thinks that everything should be nailed, including angles, etc., in my world it would have been much easier to use anchor screws instead. The same applies when attaching, for example, the outer wall studs, where he wants nails while I prefer screws, a bit more expensive but easier when you're working alone.
Can you substitute these components without causing a lot of complaints?
Or do I need to get a new drawing with specified screws?

If you switch, the responsibility will probably shift from the constructor to you. I don't think there will be any complaints.
The anchor nail is just to switch to equally long anchor screws.
It's a bit more difficult to know which screw is, for example, as strong as a 4" nail, as it depends on the type of load it's subjected to. And screws behave differently, for example, they can snap under lateral forces in a way that a nail does not.
The best is to nail, faster and 1/5 of the price

Well, indeed 1/5 of the price, now the nail/screw cost is not the largest item in the budget.
Primarily it was fittings and similar, feels better to use anchor screws than nails.
Feels like the designer copied the entire Essve catalog straight into the construction drawing
Thanks for the answer
