AutoCAD . Dimensons and Lineweights from Bradley Cantrell on Vimeo. Tutorial on AutoCAD dimensions and lineweights for LA 1102 by Peter Summerlin
This method allows you to quickly find a section cut line from the terrain models that are part of Google Earth. Keep in mind that the results shown have an exaggerated vertical elevation which may not work in some situations. The vertical exaggeration can be adjusted by re-sizing the window, although this cannot be accomplished […]
