Multiple Choice

Enlargement Detail is acceptable when shown as inserts on the same sheet or with cross-reference if located on another sheet.

Enlargement details are shown to give a clearer, larger view of a small portion of the plan while keeping the surrounding context readable. The best way to present this is as an inset on the same sheet, so you maintain the relationship to the overall drawing. If the detail lives on a different sheet, a clear cross-reference tells the reader where to find the enlarged view. This setup keeps the drawing uncluttered and easy to navigate, while still providing the necessary legibility and precise dimensions. Using a standalone sheet for the enlargement or requiring a different scale for every enlargement would generally hinder readability and make it harder to relate the detail back to the main plan.
