DRAWING STANDARDS. Coordination Systems The City of Mountlake Terrace drawings will be constructed and setup according to the City of Mountlake Terrace Grid System. Civil drawings will be based on the City of Mountlake Terrace Tide Lands Grid System and NAD Grid. When the latter two are combined, there is a rotation factor of 0.0 with ‘North’ pointing up. External References Drawing (XREF Drawing) Xrefs (External References) are to be inserted onto the “_Xref_<drawing_name>” layer. Use only background layers that are provided for each discipline. CITY OF MOUNTLAKE TERRACE ENGINEERING SERVICES DEPARTMENT CAD STANDARDS Paper/Model Space AutoCAD lets you work in model space or paper space. You will do most of your drawing and design work in model space, creating the model of the object you are presenting. You will use paper space to arrange, annotate, and plot various views of your model. Each view can show a different part of the model or display it from a different viewpoint. You can even turn specific layers on or off in each view. Working in paper space, you can arrange and edit these views, and then plot them as group; this will make it easy to produce a sheet of detail views, or whatever you require. Title blocks, general notes, sheet notes, and entities that are not attached to entities that represent “real objects” must be placed in Paper Space. The rest of the entities, such as “real” entities and objects referring to them, may be placed in Model Space. Revisions When it is necessary to make revisions to a submitted plan set the all of the sheets in the plan must be marked with a revision number, date and brief description of why the changes were made. Plan sheets should be clouded and noted in all areas where revisions have occurred. Please place revision clouds and notes on “Revision_#” layer so that they can be isolated in the review process.
