can someone explain to me the procedure to using the bubble revison clouds
w/ triangles attached. Let say one sheet has 2 different revision. I bubble
one and give it a triangle w/ number 1, and the second I give a bubble and
triangle w/ 2 in it. Now I go to the next sheet, do I start over w/ #1 on
that sheet, or do I pick up w/ #3?

Just curious about what is the correct way to do this

The number in the triangle is the number of that revision of that drawing. Usually drawings issued for construction are
revision 0. Subsequent revisions are usually numbered 1, 2, etc. All changes to that drawing since the last issue of
it are numbered the same.

If several drawings are revised and issued at the same time, they may not have the same revision number. It depends on
if and how many times they have been issued previously.

I've seen Architects that like the current revision triangle number on all
sheets being revised. Others want to see the revision triangle number on
per sheet basis no matter what the actual revision number may be. I prefer
a sheet by sheet basis as that way you know if you have missed any or not as
you don't skip numbers.

I prefer to coordinate the revision numbers by trade. (Plumbing)

Everyplace I've worked only puts clouds & triangles on the current revision. Before doing any clouds for a new rev, all existing clouds & triangles are removed - so there would never be a 2 and a 3 on the same page. Of course we always keep the DWG files of the previous rev in a separate locked folder and filed away on CD's.

We start each sheet individually at rev A for the design cycle, and renumber to rev 0 when released for construction. Each sheet changes rev# only if actually revised, independently of the rest of the set. Other places rev the whole set at a time, but I kind of prefer our method, because it only requires editing the sheets actually revised.

I have also seen companies only use "clouds" on the current revision, but
leave the triangles from previous revisions. But in some cases this gets
really confusing.

On one project I worked on in the early '80s the Arch. wanted to keep ALL
clouds and revisions. The latest revision number was poched and past clouds
had to be broken if new clouds went across them. It really "clouded" the
issue IMHO.
