Only place I've ever seen it used is for S - 'Step' i.e. rise and 'Going' i.e. distance/length of flat. Not for years however.
Some architects/designers/technicians have their own unique (i.e. f***ing incomprehensible) key though. If it's a proper drawing with the details in the box at bottom right corner call the designer up and ask. As long as it's not a client'S in-house team (which you'll presumably be able to tell) your client won't know you had to ask. And it's definitely not standard usage anyway.
Next up the 'cut and shuffle' method of taking off quantities/bill production!

what is it with that magazine..........every one (well about 20 people) in my office gets a copy and no muddafcuker ever reads it.
i mean i must get one at least once a week.
maybe you work in a bakers??
and in answer to the 2nd part of your "question"...the clue is in the "week" part of "qs week"

1) Bakers??
2) re: "once a week", obviously my sarcasm is lost in the delivery of my text speech.
3) Note to self: must improve sarcastic tone of written speech on spotlight boards
"re bakers" - if everyone in your office gets a Quantity Surveying Magazine, but doesnt read it, then maybe they're not quantitiy surveyors, maybe they do something else..........?? ok bakers not the best example.
Note To Self......try to be more inventive when attempting to rebuff (apparently) veiled sarcasm!!!

Hanbags or what!! I was actually taking the pi$$ out of myself for not being funny enough..............."attempting to rebuff (apparently) veiled saracasm"
