Assess a site

Use this palette to add extra symbols for assessing a site to gCADPlus. We hope that you find these symbols useful when developing a site concept plan where consideration of aspect, screening, wind direction, sun movement across the site is required.

Click on the image below to download a palette of details showing various approaches to site analysis. The download consists of a single gCADPlus drawing file. Once downloaded, use the BLOCKS command, choose add from another file and browse to the location of your downloaded file. Alternatively, select File > Insert > Insert Block. If you want the individual symbols immediately available, choose the explode option.

These symbols can be inserted in model space or on layout sheets. If a symbol is not quite to your liking, edit by selecting the block symbol, right click and choose edit block.
