tommy1 Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Has anyone found that they need to enlarge the cad block for the ceiling smoke detectors? I have. 99.9% of my plans are ay 1/4" scale and the plan checkers find it hard to see the smoke detectors. I've been using a larger can block and have had less comments from the city plan checkers. I never hear anyone comment on the size of the smoke alarm cad blocks so I thought I would bring it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Never had it questioned but you are correct they are a little small. Usually place the detector in an open area and use the label so maybe that helps. Chief architect drawings are generally much clearer to start with than others I have seen so that is always a plus.

DRAWZILLA Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Some cities have wanted me to enlarge that cad block, in which it's very easy to do. Just re-do the cad block, the text is just too small, save it to your lib. for future use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
