Off page reference standards

Recommended Posts

I came upon a question today with one of the drawings that I'm working on. Took the question to the CAD standards guy and he had no good answers.

 

What do you do when an off page reference would go to a range of pages? I'm drawing a typical detail - if you want the specifics of how the pod is connected you go to a different page, say EC400 for POD A, EC401 for POD B and so on. I came up with a few options, shown below, but I'm wondering if anyone knows a standard way of doing this?

 

Thanks,

Glen

Draw a box around whatever you want to reference and add a multi-leader that reads something like "See EC400-EC404 for details." That would be better than a marker.

Agreed. This is exactly what we do as well.

 

For the record, the symbols you posted are for sections/elevations anyways. Not really "details".
