creating construction docs

Obviously, there are different 'sheets' for different aspects for construction docs.

But, if you need to put a demo plan, a new plan, and an existing plan on one sheet, how are the same, but different floor plans saved so they can be placed on the sheet.   This sounds probably confusing, but if you create a floor plan at, say, the level 1 and it is modified, it will modify everywhere.  So there seems to be need to create separate versions of the same floor plan unless there is a clever way of doing this.

Sounds like you want Design Options.

Are you aware of phases in Revit?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

Sounds like phasing.

 

In case you modify an existing building. Setup two phases; existing and new.

With a phase filter you can override/highlight demolished objects.

Phases....different plan views with the different phases and phase filters applied to each view.

Interesting. 3 vote Phase and 1 vote Design Option.  

 

Alrighty then, maybe the OP doesn't know to "Duplicate View" and set the View's "Phase"...and possibly "Phase Filter" if he doesn't actually have a "Demo" Phase?
