Greg_NY61 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 If anything they should indicate full pocket depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 It seems to me that the way Chief is displaying the sliding pocket doors in plan is fine. It's no different than we would have done manually and is as far as I can see not a problem. I've never tried to actually show the pocket. Does it really need to be that detailed at scale? Joe, the plan view is just wrong , the full pocket should be shown so people don't put plumbing or electrical or med. cabs. in that wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRAWZILLA Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Sorry Perry but I thought you were smarter than to do that. I don't do that but, someone could do it very easily. Chief should just show it they way we use to when we drew it by hand. We aren't the only ones who look at the plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

country Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I have always drawn the "pocket" so closet, cabinet builders, etc. all know they have to do extra framing if something is against that area. Plumbers are notorious for planning to use any wall close by for the stack or vent even if a stack is clearly shown somewhere else. They seem to notice if the wall looks different.

DRAWZILLA Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Sorry Perry, I don't recall having drawn the pocket when I was using manual drafting.I always draw the pocket and always did. it should be shown in every plan. I'm not on the job site when the plumming goes in. So. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted February 17, 2016 Author Share Posted February 17, 2016 Perry, Let's get back to post #1. We don't need to beat a dead horse with the "pocket". I am going to agree with showing the pocket. I just want CA to pay attention to the rest of the stuff as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg_NY61 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I agree with Perry, that should be shown on the plan so it can be visually referenced. I'm sure for CA it would be an easy fix, all they have to do is set the doors code parameters for a pocket door to be 2 X door width + 1" and Door height + 4 1/2" and maybe in a plan view show the door's actual opening by using a dashed line. Sometimes you have a door, especially if you design your plans for contractors or even homeowners, and if they want to move a wall in the field, at least they can see the outline of the rough opening of that door. This is what I started doing when showing the door in a plan view, because on a few occasions the customers said let's move this wall, seeing there is some room left with a door being there, this way now they can see the exact opening. So IMO that is a very important feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
