Split Construction Documents

Seeing if any of you have figured out how to do this yet, or have any good pointers.

Working on a subdivision with 3 house plans, but they will all share similar information. Let's just talk details for now.

So I have 3 separate models. And in those models is where the sheets are that pertain strictly to those houses. . .plans, elevations, sections, schedules.

My hang up comes when I'm trying to figure out the best way to be able to reference a single set of details as opposed to inserting the same detail into all 3 sets of drawings.

Anyone have any ideas. I feel like there might be some trick way of doing this, but the best way that I can come up with so far is to manually reference information to an outside set of drawings.

Thanks Stunts

We do our housing projects all as one file. It is not uncommon for us to have a dozen buildings in one file. It would be nice if there were a better way for coordination.

ouch. I haven't tried, but I can see that causing more problems than it fixes. . . .but would like to hear the benifits.
