Hi All

 

Is there a way to set metric site level dimensions?

 

Just to explain a little .... If I draw a vertical column the base of the column may be at 17.000 (i.e. metres above sea level). The Top of Steelwork in the beam might be at 21.000. How do I set the starting dimension at the base of the column to 17.000 and use this reference point for all other vertical dimensions - T.O.S. 21.000 in this example?

 

Many thanks

Is this a 2D or 3D drawing?

 

The ELEVATION command comes to mind.

Relocate your UCS to the proper elevation. I believe it is the "origin" option.
