Line Weights and Annotations

Descriptions of existing above-ground features on Plan View and Profile View sheets shall have a consistent line weight. Descriptions of existing below-ground utilities and features shall have a consistent line weight that is lighter than existing above-ground features. All features and components of the proposed installation-as opposed to existing conditions-shall have a consistent, heavier line weight than existing above-ground features. All annotations for the proposed installation shall be bolded and noticeably heavier than other annotations on the Plan and Profile sheets.
A Plan sheet example with suitable line weights and annotations is shown in Figure B-1.
