Hello,
I have question(structural steel detailing)while creating shop drawings. For example - w profile beam which is having shear plate welded in web looking near side in main view. While Wen looking it from bottom side or view.we may it get the plate on other side which means farside. Like this many cope cuts and holes are also face the same case in bottom view. Is this viewings can be easily identifiable in shop while fabricating. Else you guys need much more sections to assemble it.

A figure would help. It's hard to understand what the question is from your text.
 
If you are doing this professionally, your organization should have hundreds of examples you can look at or use for training purposes.
 
Yes, we do have examples. I just wanted to know whether shop fabricator required any extra view details for assembling a member. More than just top and bottom view's.anyway thanks
 
For general drawing practice, drawings should show views in all three axes. Therefore, side views are probably appropriate. But maybe you should ask your fabricator?
