10 layers list (As part of AutoCAD file):
- use “US national CAD standard” common naming standards
- make sure you have at least one-layer line weight
- make sure you have layers for long – short – and – lines
- use CAPITAL letters only
- start with S or A prefix (for architecture or structural disciplines)
- keep the layers “0” and Defpoints as they required by the software
- prefix code X not use layers
- you may keep the prefix “Title” for title block information
Submittal:
- Upload your AutoCAD file
recommended: upload your auto CAD file using the e- transmit format - Name files using the following naming convention:
- course_professor initials_semester_project name_student name
- (ex: ARCH2331_AA-KC_S20_Grid_JoseSanchez-01.jpg)
