The drawings — standard details referenced by index number in construction plans (e.g., 700-series signing, 711 markings, 102-series temporary traffic control, 522-002 curb ramps, 6xx signals).
Why: plans say “per Index 711-001”; you must be able to open the right index instantly. Quantities and reviews hinge on these details.
When:
- S&PM design/review
- MOT plans
- ADA ramps
- signal hardware details
- quantity takeoffs
Example questions:
- stop bar placement/size?
- sign post embedment?
- lane-closure taper per 102-603?
- detectable warning placement?
Spawn: an index cheat-sheet note per plan type you touch (SPM Plan Review Checklist links the common ones).
