millwork-shop-drawings

What problem does it solve?

Provides clear, consistent drafting conventions to eliminate confusion and errors in architectural millwork and cabinet shop drawings, ensuring joinery and internal features are represented correctly for fabrication.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Line-type semantics: Defines when to use solid, dashed, center, and dimension lines for visible edges, hidden features, symmetry, and measurements.
• Orthographic and section rules: Specifies third-angle projection view alignment, section view cut conventions, and how to represent dados, rabbets, and back panels.
• Practical use cases: Prepare cabinet construction details, joinery diagrams, plan/elevation/section alignment for fabrication, and annotate shop drawings to comply with AWI and ASME Y14.2 guidance.

Quick Start

Create a cabinet section drawing showing dados and rabbet joints for a 36in base cabinet using HTV-HBD construction and annotate hidden elements as dashed lines.
