what about a project determines the type of numbering system you pick for your drawing package
the size and complexity of a project and how many drawings there are
what are some common numbering systems (how are they numbered) for drawings
simplest = 1.0 good for small projects with no consultant’s drawings
larger with consultants put a letter in front- A for arthictural or interiors or I
for plans that can be grouped (like all RCP’s together) do the decimbles so A1.1 A2.1 etc can add sheets later
for high rise buildings or buildings with different sections, can use the floor number like 53A1.1 or A53-1.1
what is the typical size of construction plans
1/4 or 1/8. large scale ones or complex areas are at 1/2
