Please note the drawing uses named plot styles so if you're using CTB there is a little conversion required to get it to plot the way you would want/expect.
Here's an example of placing a curtain wall along a curved area using a dynamic block.

Two 36 in dynamic door blocks, BYLAY and SWING BYBLOCK
Please note the swing is controlled via a parametric constraint which seems to get out of sync at times, specifically the arrow control will switch to the opposite end of the arc. If this happens reset the block and use native acad commands to set the door into position. It doesn't always happen and I have not been able to nail down the exact sequence to resync the control. Hardly a hard stop, Anyways, hope someone finds these useful

Two Sets of Power Panels
1. power panels have been setup dedicated per system type, Eg not nested, with minimal visstates and settings.
2. Nested block setup with many states
Here is a tip for the Electrical Designers out there:
Remember to set your panels off the wall a bit if the wall lineweight is a bit heavy it may overlap the panel graphic a bit.
Hope some folks find these useful.

Here are a few updated RAF blocks I use in com room data center designs.
The individual rows have a visstate of no boundaries so they can be used in between grid blocks without having stacked boundary lines.
These have been set in an STB plot environment, adjust layering to meet CTB requirements.
Hope a few folks find these useful
