GENERAL notes refer to all of the notes on the drawing not accompanied by a leader and an arrowhead. As used in this book, general notes for a set of drawings covering one particular type of work are placed on the first sheet of the set. They should be placed a minimum of 3 in. below the space provided for the revision block when the conventional horizontal title block is used. When the vertical title block is used, you may place the general notes on the right side of the drawing. General notes for architectural and structural drawings may include, when applicable,

Figure 10-7.Common architectural symbols (for various materials) used in drawing sections and elevations.

Figure 10-8.-Architectural symbols (doors and windows).

Figure 10-9.-Weld symbols.

roof, floor, wind, seismic, and other loads, allowable soil pressure or pile-bearing capacity, and allowable unit stresses of all the construction materials used in the design. Notes for civil, mechanical, electrical, sanitary, plumbing, and similar drawings of a set may include, when applicable, References for vertical and horizontal control (including soundings) and basic specific design data.

General notes may also refer to all of the notes grouped according to materials of construction in a tabular form called a SCHEDULE. Schedules for items like doors, windows, rooms, and footings are somewhat more detailed. Their formats will be presented later in this chapter.
