Websites/references for steel drawing drafting shorthand/abbreviations

(OP)
Anyone know of any good websites or other references about steel (and/or construction) drawing drafting shorthand/abbreviations?  (i.e. LLV = Long Leg Vertical)

RE: Websites/references for steel drawing drafting shorthand/abbreviations

Here’s one on weld symbols:

AISC Article on Welds

Or try the National Institute of Steel Detailing (NISD) here:

NISD website   

They have a standard for purchase that may provide what you are looking for.

Your boss should have one that you put on the notes sheet of each job.  Ask your boss or the head draftsman. They probably have the abbreviations.
