DWG IMPORTED

[decorators3]

Hi 

 

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but now that I have the DWG files, I just want to make sure I’m understanding what I’m seeing as I work through this.

I’ve attached the site plan along with the DWG view on my end. In the file, I’m seeing two terrain outlines—one for the full area and another just for the new development. I’m not seeing any perimeter measurements, and I’m also not seeing any house blocks or building footprints, which I thought might be there.

When I open the Architectural block, I can see the lines, but there are no measurements showing for scaling. I also can’t seem to change the CAD lines into a terrain perimeter.

I’ve also attached sample image  of the layer blocks so you can see what’s coming through in the DWG file on my end.

Just wanted to check if this is normal at this stage, or if those pieces usually come through in a separate file.

 

Thanks appreciate your assistance

I really couldn't tell by the screen shot of the cad line being that I couldn't zoom up on it.  But it looks like it had magenta and cyan lines.. representing your project lot lines and buildings, correct?  Were you able to measure these and compare the dimensions to the pdf?  This looks like a model space drawing to me, where the views in paper space would be scaled and that is where dims and text are placed.  I always draw 1 to 1, but I've noticed some survey groups don't when I received there cad files.   This is where you do a few distances measurements in the CAD file, then see how it compares to the pdf.  You might have to scale the CAD file up

 

I don't mind looking at it for you and give you my $0.05.

Post the DWG and I can take a look at it.
