Drawing Graphic Standards to Download

Aidan Han

Hi, I’ve worked in interior design industry for 7 years, and I am trying to find a way to improve AutoCAD drawing graphic standards for my team. I’d like to follow AIA guidelines as much as possible but that’s more accustomed to interior design projects. I am wondering if anyone in this group knows where I can download standard drawing symbols in different scales so I can use for my future projects. Thank you!

Most google searches will bring up what you are looking for, but you may not encounter this one often....

Dept of Veteran Affairs has a lot of downloadable templates you can edit.

Thanks for your reply. I am actually looking for a place where I can download the entire package that includes layers, symbols, dimensions/leaders, font, etc. How do people usually set this up when they have a new business?? Do they typically steal drawing styles from past jobs?

You can find the CAD standards used by the US military (and therefore not subject to copyright) here: https://cadbimcenter.erdc.dren.mil/.

Thanks for sharing the link but I didn't find their information helpful. Their downloadable CAD files don't have actual contents once opening their DWG files. I guess there's no website to be able to purchase/download architectural graphic styles in a package? I was looking at this website https://thirtybyforty.com/draw... which is similar to what I am looking for. I just need more quality drawings including dynamic blocks.
