To Insert a Fire Rating Line in the Drawing

  1. Select a fire rating line tool on a tool palette.

    A fire rating line tool is located on the Annotation palette.

  2. Specify the start point of the wall you want to annotate with a fire rating line.
  3. Specify the wall endpoint in the direction you want the line to be drawn.
  4. Continue specifying wall points to extend the line as needed.
  5. Press Enter.
  6. Note: Fire rating lines that have been inserted with fire rating tools can be modified in the drawing and saved back as tools on a tool palette. By default, a fire rating line tool created that way will have the same layer key, layer overrides, linetype, and line width as the original tool that was used to create the annotation symbol in the drawing.
