SCOPE

1.1

This practice contains requirements governing:

a.

The type, content, and structure of all Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) Drawings to be
supplied as part of the project documents.

b.

The content of a Drawing Index listing all the CAD and other drawings supplied as
part of the project documentation.

1.2

An asterisk () indicates additional information is required. If a job is contracted this

additional information is furnished in the Job Specification.

2.1

This practice is to be used in conjunction with IP 1-1-1 covering DRAWINGS, DIAGRAMS,

AND LINE LISTS.

3.1

3.2

AutoCAD refers to the Computer Aided Drafting package by Autodesk Inc. AutoCAD is a
registered trademark of Autodesk Inc.
Layering refers specifically to the manner in which AutoCAD separates drawing information
into separate groups. Properties can be defined for these groups and the groups can be
manipulated in AutoCAD drawing files.

SUMMARY OF ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

DEFINITION OF TERMS

COMPUTER AIDED DRAFTING FILE FORMAT

I

4.1

Drawings to be supplied in CAD format are listed in Table 2.

4.2

Information to be supplied as part of the Job Specification is given in Table 3.

4.3

Computer Aided Drafting files shall be provided in native AutoCAD DWG format, based on
Release 12. Drawings may be provided based on later releases of the AutoCAD product
or on a non-AutoCAD product with approval by the Owner's Engineer. In the case where
CAD drawings originate in a non-AutoCAD system, the contractor shall demonstrate the
conversion to AutoCAD DWG format is 100% effective in retaining the drawing content.
Intermediate drawing formats such as DXF are not acceptable unless agreed as part of the
Job Specification.

4.4

5.1

Drawing Symbol sets are defined in IP 1-1-1. Line weights not covered by IP 1-1-1 shall be
covered in this standard.

6.1

The Naming Convention for Drawings, Equipment, and Instrumentation shall follow IP 1-11. Specific naming conventions for Process Unit designations, etc., will be covered in the
Job Specification.

NAMING CONVENTIONS
I

LAYERING CONVENTIONS
I

7.1

The Computer Aided Drafting files shall be prepared with the information layered according
to the conventions given for the type of drawing in Table 4.

7.2

Layer names shall follow the standard names given in Table 4 or as amended by the Job
Specification.

7.3

The layering standard provides separate layers for standard text and titleblocks, and for
most drawings standard line weights and types. These layers have default colors (using
the 7 AutoCAD default colors) and default AutoCAD linetypes. Only standard AutoCAD
linetypes shall be used.

7.4

Where the original source drawing system is not AutoCAD then the contractor shall
demonstrate that the conversion to AutoCAD DWG files will produce the correct layering as
required by this IP.

8.3

Upon completion of the project, the contractor shall provide a Drawing Index of all the
drawings supplied.
This Index shall contain the information given in Table 1 for each drawing (as appropriate).
The Index shall be supplied in a form suitable for use in the Owners indexing system. This
format shall be specified as part of the Job Specification.
