I do everything in AutoCAD 2000 or 2005 if needed (i can not stand '05...it's slow and makes me feel like throwing the computer bc it can't keep up with my commands)Originally Posted by Danny
ok thats neat. Jason, is that PDF similar to the document you would provide to the architect. You basically do the schematic design, and your architect takes that base document and creates a set of working construction documents. Is that basically the process im picking up on here? Also, just wondering what is the work load like for your architects. (est. stores per yr, for the said position). You manage to fit alot into that extremly small space. Good job
I have 8 to 10 "D" sheets, dependant upon needing the demolition and/or exterior elevation plans or not. What I showed you is a sample base file that I would xref into 4 or 5 of the sheets: Dimension, Electrical, Finish, Life Safety, and sometimes Demolition Plan with the layers hidden accordingly setup through the layers manager [lman]. If we are building a soffit, not shown in that example, then i will also include a Partial Reflected Ceiling Plan that shows the new ceiling grid & lighting behind the soffit in the electronics and appliance area.
That example I attached is rare because both spaces share the same restrooms & "storage" area (i mean "clearance" area...I always avoid calling those back roooms storage or warehouse to prevent alot of headache down the road
)
