Pushed off of gate X - ramp told us to taxi to spot X.  Taxing out of alley from [gate] X - there are ZERO taxi lines.  Paint has been removed.  I was going to taxi out to spot X then turn on taxi line there; but there was a plane stopped waiting to enter spot X.  I turned where the taxi lines used to be toward spot A.  Passing by spot Y; there was a plane coming in spot B blocking me from A.  There were ZERO taxi lines to be able to get around aircraft at spot B that started taxing. I told ramp that there were no taxi lines for me to get around other jet.  He asked me if I had my charts - which I did. He said it was construction.  Nothing in Jeppesen showed any 'alternate' taxi procedures.  There was a dashed yellow-black line to the North of standard taxi lines; but it went no where.  Later I could not find any mention of what a dashed yellow-black line meant in the AIM.  This was the first time I have taxied from X concourse to spot Z.CLT ramp just wants to move metal.  Having to switch to 3 different frequencies to get from one side of the ramp to the other is distracting.  Having ramp ask me if I have my charts or that due to construction I can taxi where I want is an accident waiting to happen.  There are ZERO lines to follow.  For us at night; unfamiliar - WITH our current charts out giving ZERO guidance and getting no help from ramp was was very uncomfortable. We stopped several times to make sure we had wing clearance with other aircraft taxiing.Publish and mark standard taxi lines during construction.
Air carrier Captain reported that due to construction at CLT Airport there was a lack of standard taxi lines or alternate taxi procedures.
