Just curious

On your standard home plans...

How many of you dimension walls to each edge or surfaces of the walls? 

How many dimension end walls to outside core and interior walls to center?

So....  What points do you dimension to? 
I know I was very brief in my description.

G'day Les!
either side of frame, veneer walls just outside face of veneer & inside face of frame.
Frames typically 70 or 90 thick.
Hollow core concrete masonry mostly 190 thick . . .

G'day Chris!
well spotted. bld came from one of my builders & I just grabbed it, added the dims for illustration purposes.
It was a proposal that had that many iterations it wasn't funny - original roof was modified (virtually) so many times it's a wonder it survived.
It was this project that my QA system paid for itself. Client (not the builder) refused to pay EO's claiming he'd never asked for all those scenarios. I spent a day going through I don't know how many pdf's - checkplots & all - then printing all the relevant ones. Project was just round the corner so next to nothing was emailed, delivered in person & discussed "on site".

That's why I print everything to pdfMachine, name it appropriately, then print hard-copy.

Bob Brown for US President, Donald Trump for Aussie PM, Julia for composting/recycling - would definitely be Greening Australia.
That's not going to happen but we can dream, can't we?
Like Wayne I also dream of Merv's dreams coming true - the versatility of Envisioneer + power of AP = happy camper
