Blueprint Symbols


I've tried finding complete blueprint glazing symbology, both in the industry websites and also doing general searches using Google & Yahoo with no great results. I've been getting plans from architects with symbols I've never seen before. Can anyone point me to a RELIABLE symbol library for the glazing and glass industies? Many thanks.

Re: Blueprint Symbols


I'm not sure what kind of "glazing symbols" you're looking for- there's not a whole lot of glazing-specific symbols that I can think of.

Re: Blueprint Symbols


I have a better idea, post an image of the symbols you have no clue what they are, so that we can let you know what it means.

Re: Blueprint Symbols


I think you were on the right track when you said library. Look up books on blueprints, plenty of construction specific ones in "Carpentry" by Leonard Koel. That's available in many libraries.

Searching for: Architectural Symbols, Construction Drawings, Building plan symbols might bring you better results.

here's one page with some:
