Key Elements to Include in Shop Drawings Published Date Last […]

One often overlooked aspect of detailed drawings is the power of consistent annotation. Imagine a complex section with numerous callouts and notes. Inconsistency in font size, leader style, or even the placement of text can quickly lead to visual clutter and confusion. Develop a standardized annotation system for your projects. This might involve creating a library of pre-defined annotation families within your BIM software, or simply establishing clear guidelines for your team to follow. Consistent annotation not only improves the readability of your drawings but also enhances your firm’s professional image. It’s a small detail that can make a big difference in the overall clarity and effectiveness of your construction documents.
