Now, you'll notice we have a new drawing open. It's zero zero ground FM define dot dwg, and you'll find that drawing in your lynda.com exercise files. You'll also notice that it's got the GEA polyline. It's also got the gross internal polyline as well, the purple one that we created in previous videos in the previous chapter. You will also need to link you GA, your structural plan, to this particular drawing before you start working through following the videos. So if I go to the insert tab on the ribbon and click on the little arrow here on the reference panel, you can see there is the FP reference file.
