Dec-Multiline, Straight 30 0.14 Decimal Feet, 0.01 accuracy<br />

Fract-Multiline, Slanted 31 0.14 Fractions, 1/16” accuracy<br />

Fract, Slanted 31 0.14 Fractions, 1/16” accuracy<br />

Masked Fract, Slanted 31 0.14 Fractions, 1/16” accuracy<br />

Masked Fract-Multiline, Slanted 31 0.14 Fractions, 1/16” accuracy<br />

*Text size units are “inches”.<br />

Line Terminators shall be a filled arrow created with a width to height ratio <strong>of</strong> 2.5:1. The terminator width<br />

shall equal the text height.<br />

Leader Lines may be broken when crossing dimension lines. In order to keep broken lines to a minimum,<br />

it is recommended that the user relocate the dimension callout or reposition the dimension. Leader lines<br />

and terminators shall be a weight <strong>of</strong> zero (0) and shall be placed on the same level as required for text<br />

notes and callouts.<br />

Similar to Text Styles, the text size for Dimension Styles can be set by use <strong>of</strong> the Model Annotation Scale<br />

parameter. See section 207.4 Text Styles for more information.<br />

The Multiline dimension styles have been configured to place dimension text above and below the<br />

dimension line as shown at left in the example below. These Dimension styles have been provided to<br />

allow the user to edit the dimension text to contain a label as part <strong>of</strong> the dimension element. This is<br />

advantageous in the case where the dimension is moved or modified since the text is part <strong>of</strong> the<br />

dimension and not a separate text string that must be moved manually. The MicroStation Edit Text<br />

command is used to edit the dimension text. An example <strong>of</strong> the edited text is shown at right below.<br />

Bridge plans shall use the “Fract, Slanted”, “Fract-Multiline, Slanted” or “Masked Fract, Slanted”,<br />

“Masked Fract-Multiline, Slanted” dimension styles. All Bridge dimensions shall be placed associated.<br />

Dimensions shall not have their status dropped.<br />
