Create foundation drawings

Foundation drawings refer to isolated foundation detail drawings and foundation layout drawings. Isolated foundation detail drawings display an individual foundation detail in plan. If necessary, you can also display the detail in cross section and a reinforcement quantity table. As for foundation layout drawings, they display the piling layout and the layout of isolated foundations. If necessary, you can also display isolated foundation details, a reinforcement quatity table, an isolated foundation schedule, and a pile location table.
