ACRÓNIMOS

POR JUAN RODRIGUEZ Actualizado el 02 de junio de 2019

Los planos de especialidades,arquitectura, estructura, también llamados planos técnicos o planos para construcción, están llenos de abreviaturas y acrónimos para ahorrar espacio y mejorar la apariencia general de la presentación.

Recordar todo este resumen puede ser complicado, especialmente cuando se agrega al desafío de leer todos los símbolos y descifrar las convenciones que podría utilizar un dibujante o diseñador en particular. Afortunadamente, muchas abreviaturas de planos tienen significados ampliamente aceptados y se utilizan en todo tipo de planos, desde los planos de los planos hasta los dibujos de ingeniería.
