​ADDITIONAL STANDARD DRAWIN​G RESOURCES​
Printing Standard Drawings and Sepias
Our PDF Standard Drawings and sepias are designed to scale to standard letter size (8.5" x 11"), for those with the updated sheet border. When printing from your PDF viewer, simply select 8.5" x 11" as your paper size and choose the “Fit to Page” or “Shrink Oversized Pages” option. This ensures the entire drawing fits on the sheet, making it easy to staple into a binder or keep with your project documentation.

Complete PDF Packets of 2025 Standard Drawings
The complete 2025 Standard Drawings will be published ​in PDF packets, on the official release date, by division, here: Bridges; Roadway​; Traffic. Please note: these packets will be a one-time release and will not be updated throughout the year. Any subsequent sepias issued after the release will need to be downloaded separately and inserted into your copy of the packet.
