That should look like ... what?

Always post an example! And please do not use abbreviations unless you are absolutely sure everybody else around here understands them!

GFRC=glass fiber reinforced concrete...Its fairly common, hopefully most architects/draftspersons know the abbreviation

Yes Woody, its probably used even more in an area like Dubai than where we are... They could refer to it as GRC though... I'm not really sure.

I do, however, get Djorde's point about abbreviations as I tend to get confused with alot of the basic "Chat" abrreviations.

Oh, yes, it is very much used, and Dan is right - it is mostly called GRC here.

My point was - we all come from various parts of the planet, so what is obvious for me (door opening line, anyone?) is not so obvious or usual to you. Explaining ourselves fully helps to help.

I second that. I frequently need to look up english words because I am not fully acquainted with architectural terminology.
It is mostly the unknown words and symbols which prevent understanding.

Back on topic I did experiment with make a wall with that type of fill and it worked well (make a fill with that pattern and inset in the wall composite, you may have to juggle the origin.) That fill pattern is used to represent insulation here.

The wrinkle came when i exported to DWG and the pattern converted into gazillion line segment ballooning the file size.
