Typical Wall Details are a handy way to define multiple interior walls in great detail just once and then tag the walls on the plans with the appropriate wall construction tag. For the tag we use a simple short section line connected to a diamond in which the letter designation of the wall type is shown. This is especially handy when the plans are 1/8" scale or smaller because you might otherwise need enlarged plans just to show wall construction notes. 
Often there are variations on a wall type, which you can see in the example. We use subscripts to distinguish the variations on the plans and indicate the differences in the detail's notes. 
The Table Of Steel Stud Minimum Gages helps to limit even more variations on the wall types. The down side to relying on this table is that many contractors will ignore it. 
Typical Wall Details can be overkill if there are just a few simple types. 

Here is another take on Typical Walls from Life of an Architect.

Window Replacement can almost never be justified on the basis of energy savings, so aesthetics, comfort and deterioration lead up the reasons for replacement. It is important to know the conditions that the new window must fit into. 
The key features of the detail are:

• clarifying the sequence of events
• showing new lintel (if any) which was scheduled elsewhere on this sheet
• sub-frames for the window, which are often needed to get a good installation
• identifying surrounding conditions and what stays, what goes

Veneer Replacement does not happen often; but, as modern buildings that used veneers age, the frequency may increase. This detail shows the replacement of a 45 year old 24"x24"x2" stone veneer. The anchors corroded, which led to deterioration of the stone veneer as the corrosion expanded and cracked the faces of the veneer panels. In some places the anchors were no longer in tact to hold the stone in place.
The Veneer Replacement System that was selected was ARRIS•clip Renaissance® Units by Arriscraft. In this case the tricky part was that there was a story of brick veneer above that had been partially bearing on the stone veneer. The detail shows how we designed a custom stainless steel 'TEE' to transfer the support of the brick to the concrete foundation wall.  
The key issues that the detail resolves are:

• temporary support of the brick by removing the stone in sections
• a custom fabricated, non-corrosive, support that was configured to match the existing conditions (shimming was required in places)
• new slabs can be replaced without removing all slabs
• replaced the look of the original stone at lower cost
