Floor plans Cadd drawings

[bgelectric]

Has anyone taken it upon their selves to furnish floor plans then send out to get cadd drawings?
If yes which program do you use to create these documents?

Of course the industry standard in the MEP engineering world is AutoCAD.

I'm not sure I understand the juxtaposition of "furnish floor plans" with "get cadd drawings". If you "furnish" the floor plans, you presumeably created them somehow. Did you mean you do the dimension take offs and then create the floor plan? In our department we use AutoCAD 2011, both the full and LT versions.

When we bid jobs that require us to provide floor plans, we always put in our quote that we will be furnished the building backgrounds free of charge and that they bind all XREF's and supply any non-standard or custom fonts or line types, all in AutoCAD 2010.
