SCOPE This document is a general guide for all AutoCAD users. It is designed to allow the creation of drawings that are consistent in quality and format. All drawings shall be legible under the intended conditions of use. It is the responsibility of the user to follow these guidelines. This document should be used unless a specific project document dictates otherwise.
2.0
DRAWING AND CAD REFERENCE DRAWINGS Drawing numbers and CAD reference numbers shall be in accordance with the SembCorp Simon-Carves (SSC) coding Manual. This can be found on the SSC Intranet, under Company Management System / Standards / Engineering / Company Coding Manual (Section 19 P&L).
3.0
FILING OF CAD DRAWINGS For consistency all AutoCAD drawings are to be saved in AutoCAD 2000 Format. All drawings shall be stored on the network, in the correct project directory and in the relevant sub-directories. Drawings MUST NOT be stored on local drives. Any drawing that has a revision change will be regarded as issued. If a drawing has been issued, a copy must be placed in the relevant revision folder, which should be a sub-folder of the relevant project folder. To ensure that only the latest version of any drawing is available for modification, revision folders will be made read only. Modifications will then be completed to the file in the project folder.

DRAWING SHEET SIZES The following table shows the recommended drawing sheet sizes from BSEN 61082.
Designation A0 A1 A2 A3 A4
Dimensions (mm) 1189 x 841 841 x 594 594 x 420 420 x 297 297 x 210
An SSC drawing frame for each size will be used via the appropriate template file and will not be modified unless agreed in advanced with CAD Development. Refer to Section 6 AutoCAD Drawing Standards. Sheet sizes used should be selected taking into account: Legibility The composition and complexity of the design The possibility of using a smaller sheet, but with a greater number of sheets The requirements of Computer Aided Design and Documentation The requirements of handling, copying, filing and other documentation processes.

DRAWING TEMPLATE FILES (.DWT) All new drawings are to be created using the appropriate drawing frame template. A template file will be made available for each size of drawing and where necessary Project Specific templates will be produced. Template files will contain the following default data and settings: Drawing Frames Layers Text Styles Dimension Styles Line Types
5.1.1
SSC-Template The SSC-Templates will contain all non-discipline specific settings, and will be used as the initial file for all discipline/project specific templates.

Guidance Notes
5.1.2
Drawing Frames A template for each size of drawing will be used (e.g. SSCSTANDARD-A0.dwt). For consistency, the drawing frame will always be placed at x=0, y=0. All drawing will be completed in Model Space and should be drawn full size (refer to Section 8 for exceptions) Drawing Limits should be set to suit the drawing frame being used. Title block information will be inserted using the attributes assigned to the drawing frame. Drawing frames and associated data blocks must not be exploded. A plot stamp will be placed on all drawings to identify the filename and location.
5.1.3
Layers Standard Layer names will be preceded with 0_ (zero). This will ensure that all standard layer names are displayed at the top of the layer listing. (The AutoCAD layer Defpoints is not included in this rule.) All items should be drawn on the correct designated layer. The preferred entity selection settings are :LINEWEIGHT set to DEFAULT LINETYPE set to BYLAYER COLOUR set to BYLAYER Only one line type should be used per layer. The number of layers and layer settings required will differ greatly depending upon the type of drawing being produced. Refer to the discipline standard (Section 2.0 of this document) for further details.

Text One font per Style, one style per layer. e.g. Style = NOTES, Font = Romans H3 x W 0.8, Notes Layer Style = TEXT, Font= Romans H3 x W 0.8, Text Layer AutoCAD font names must not be used as style names. It is recommended that, depending upon the original drawing size, the following table be used to determine text height. A0 Max Min 5.0 3.5 A1 4.0* 3.0* A2 3.5 2.5 A3 3.5 2.5 A4 3.5 2.5

Default Dimension style SSC-Dim to be used where possible. Refer to appropriate Appendices for additional dimension styles required by individual disciplines. 5.1.6 Line Types All line types are set by the layering system, and individual lines should not be changed. All entities shall be set to Line type by layer. Where possible, only standard metric AutoCAD line types are to be used (ACADISO.LIN).

SECTION TITLE: AutoCAD Drawing Standards Structuring and Layering of AutoCAD Drawings Only one line type should be used per layer. LTSCALE= 1.0 PSLTSCALE= 1.0 MEASUREMENT=1.0 All layers should have a line weight setting of Default. Polylines are to be used for thick lines The thickness of lines should be chosen from the following range: 0.18, 0.25, 0.35, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 1.4 and 2mm (BSEN 61082). Owing to difficulties in certain methods of reproduction, the line thickness 0.18 should be avoided where possible. 6.0 EXTERNAL REFERENCES All external reference drawings should be referenced from the appropriate Layer (0_Xref). The preferred method of transferring drawing files should be completed using ETransmit, this will ensure that all associated Xref drawing files are included. 7.0 SCALES All drawings are to be created FULL SIZE, and where necessary scaled using view ports. If it is intended that dimensions are to be derived by measuring the drawing, a length scale bar should be included on the drawing. The recommended scales used within view ports are specified in the following table. Note: Additional scales may be used, refer to the appropriate appendices for further details. No. E123

Layers The Simon Carves basic layers are not intended to cover those components that form the subject of the drawing; they only support its environment. Extra layers specific to the subject will need to be created such as, e.g., EQUIPMENT, STEELWORK, etc. Sub-division of Layers Where necessary, layer names may be sub-divided by further specifying the type of component held on them. This should be done by concatenating the relevant aspects of the components, in decreasing order of significance, using hyphens. The following is just a sample of possible layer names that could be produced this way:

Imports From 3D Modeling Package (PDMS) The necessary views will be generated in PDMS and an appropriate DXF file will be made available. All DXF file must clearly display the following: The scale of the view. (Due to restrictions within PDMS, any DXF views created will need to be scaled. This scale will be clearly indicated on the drawing file e.g. Scale = 1:500. When imported into AutoCAD, the view should then be re-set to full size.) Fixed datum point at known co-ordinate. This should be clearly visible and accurate, as it will be used as the insertion point. Layer should be created within the DXF to conform as close as possible to the above layering structure. Line types used will be standard AutoCAD linetypes.
