• What Shows.
• All plan walls, A Wall Ext, A Wall Int, S Wall2.
• Steel columns which rest on footings, S Col Steel. Other columns remain on S Column.
• All footings, S Footing.
Framing plan layers which should be hidden in foundation plans: S Beam, S Framing, S Column, +S Struct Note.
• Annotations.
• Foundation dimensions. It should be possible to use the foundation plan to stake the project. When using a foundation plan, you should only have architectural (interior) dimensions on the A1 basement plan.
• Wall and footing sizes.
• Dimensions to all columns.
• Graphics and notes describing all slabs and their reinforcement. Elevations of slabs to project zero. Use fills to show reinforcement. Use a background of pen 91 on text blocks to make them legible when placed on fills.

Annotations belong on +S Foundation Note. Annotations which also show in the framing plans belong on +S Note All.
The foundation plan is typically generated from the same story as the first floor framing, so it requires a separate layer combination, S0 Foundation Plan. The display option combination, S Foundation, differs from that of the structure plans only in that the cut fills are Vectorial Hatching instead of Separators only.
The foundation plan's sheet number should be S0 (zero).
