Re: CAD Drawing Standard/Drawing Office Procedur

I'd agree with Chris Wright's statements in general, but if you're doing more or less identical skids adopting standards would probably be a good idea- one company I worked for had something similar because they basically built the same product (cold boxes) in different capacities and options. The system was convenient since line numbers were consistent from project to project and the designers all knew immediately what you were talking about when a specific line was mentioned.

Ideally, I suppose you could create a "loaded" model with all the goodies and options, identify everything and then just plug/unplug components as the project requires. Of course, that's "in theory"...

If you generate 2D orthos from 3D models and user juniors to do this, standardization is likely a must...as long as you don't reinvent the wheel of course. The cosmetic issue is important if only to make reading the documents easier. sAMe soRT oF ThiNg aS iF I tyPE liKe ThIs. Kind of difficult to read, isn't it?
