Andrew Mac Posted August 20, 2003 Share Posted August 20, 2003 I am somewhat new to drafting and I want to know if there are standards in drafting for line weights? How do you determine line weights? Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Robert Anderson Posted August 20, 2003 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted August 20, 2003 There are standards for line weights in drafting, but this is one of those topics that can be debated endlessly. I'd recommend picking up a reference book for the discipline you're planning to work in, because conventions for drafting are specific to the discipline -- mechanical is different from architectural. If you're wanting an architectural reference, I don't think there's a better one than Frank Ching's Architectural Graphics . See Amazon listing . HTH, Robert Quote Link to comment
