Today's bad CAD practices from Sean


Recommended Posts

Posted

OK, I have been adding a building to our campus database the last few weeks. It is a rather large building, over 500K sf, and it has been an undertaking. Today after getting all the rooms and gross areas in I noticed that the 3rd floor did not match the other floors with it's external gross. So I thought I better take a look.

Here is the 3rd floor with 2nd floor x-ref'ed in.

Now here is the money-shot with them aligned!

Yes it is a curtain wall and should be the same all the way up. A firm was hired years ago to bring this into CAD (before I was here) from the paper plans. I wonder if it is too late for a refund?

this is why I redraw buildings and equipment for my own use ...

Maybe it was built crooked?

 

Nope, see it too many times not be that way ;)
