PREFACE

The CAD Standards Guideline is intended to ensure that work produced for the University of Connecticut will integrate into existing CAD files maintained on campus with Architectural, Engineering, and Building Services. At the Pre-Construction Meeting, a CAD coordination session will be held between the university and those producing CAD files. The purpose of the meeting is to review the CAD Standard Guidelines; thus ensuring expectations are clearly communicated to those producing CAD and Contract Documents for University of Connecticut Construction Projects. The enclosed CAD Standard Checklist is provided to the consultant at the meeting and is to accompany all electronic file submissions to the university. Final payment from the University will only be rendered once CAD files have been submitted and approved in conformance with the CAD Standards Guideline, Consultant Agreements and Owner/Contractor Agreements made with the university.

The University of Connecticut recognizes the potential benefits of Building Information Modeling (BIM) software and has developed elementary standards for A/E consultant firms that work in this media. As the technology continues to evolve, the university will review these standards and update them at regular intervals to ensure consistency in computer model submissions. The design team will be required to use parametric BIM authoring software for the creation of models that include all geometry, physical characteristics and product data needed to describe the design and construction project in detail. Submitted files should be in AUTODESK REVIT format (.rvt) or must be Revit compatible. All Revit submissions shall also be accompanied by a converted version of the drawing set in the latest version of AUTOCAD.

The University maintains REVIT, CAD, PDF and TIFF files for many buildings on all of the UConn campuses and shares available files with consultants upon request. All files provided by the University of Connecticut are the “Best Available Data” at the time of transfer and are intended for informational use only. The University of Connecticut does not warranty the accuracy of existing files. Prior to the commencement of any work, consultants shall be responsible for field verifying data to ensure accuracy.

Border/Title Block The University of Connecticut provides a standard coversheet and border/title block for use in all University of Connecticut Drawings which is to be placed into the sheet files.

The coversheet and border/title block contain attributes that must be filled out with the required, project specific information. Additionally, the full titles, addresses and logos of the Project Architect and Engineer must be placed in proper area. Please see below for the correct placement and format.

All Drawing Revisions must be properly noted in the revision list and must depict the number and date of revisions. Revisions must be noted clearly and shall include at least 6 lines for revisions. Revisions on the drawing areas shall be clouded and tagged with a delta triangle with the corresponding revision number it is related to. The revision number in the triangle must coincide with its revision in the revision list.

Size and Material To maintain consistency in permanent records kept for all University buildings, all completed construction documents must be produced on Mylar plastic with matte finish on both faces; or on Hammer mill Archival Bond Paper. Standard sizes shall be as follows: ● Arch D - 24″ x 36″ ● Arch F - 30″ x 42″ (preferred size) Drawing Title The A/E title block and name of project shall be in a vertical format down the right-hand side of the drawing is preferred.

Project Name shall match the title of the project on the project budget sheet (EPBS). Project Number. Building Number. Area for A/E’s signature and seal Indicate drawing number and number of sheets

Typical Title Sheet for Drawing Sets

of 35

Drawing Number The A/E shall confirm the building number with UCONN’s project manager. This number shall be on all drawings. Use: Cover – Cover E – Electrical M – Mechanical Index – Title Page F- Furniture P – Plumbing A – Architectural FP – Fire Protection S – Structural ASB - Asbestos FS – Food Service T – Telecom AV – Audio Visual G – Signs U – Utilities C – Civil H – HVAC X - Survey D- Demolition L – Site Plans Title Sheet/Cover Sheet A title sheet shall be included on all projects. Indicate sheet numbers and a brief description of the project. The title sheet shall have the following minimum information:

1. Project name and campus location. 2. Name, address, phone number, fax number, email address of the A/E and any consultants used for the

project. 3. Index of all drawings included in the drawing set, this should include the University of Connecticut

Drawing File Number/Sequence number. 4. Location map indicating the location of the project on campus. Campus maps are available from the

University of Connecticut AEBS. 5. List of symbols and abbreviations used in the Contract Documents shall not be indicated on the Cover

Sheet and shall be included in the drawing set. Abbreviations used for the Drawings must be industry standard recognized abbreviations.

6. All Connecticut Uniform Construction Code criteria and data should be indicated within the drawing set with egress plans, occupant load numbering and fire separation notations.

Policy on Model Space and Paper Space

Model Space. Floor plans, elevations, sections, relevant dimensions and other drawings shall be in model space only.

Paper Space. Each CAD file shall be set up to contain only one title block in paper space which

references the building model(‘s) contained in model space. Tabs may not be created to accommodate multiple sheets.

Policy on External Reference Files (Xref’s)

1. Xref’s must be inserted into sheet files as an attachment using the Relative Path as the Path Type, utilizing the file structure shown in diagram 1.0. By setting the xref to Relative Path, drawings can be moved as needed and still maintain their links, eliminating any further maintenance to re-link the Xref’s. The Absolute Path method of attaching Xref’s will not be permitted. Xref’s must be inserted using a 0,0,0 reference point.

2. Xref’s can also be bound and packaged. Binding an xref to a drawing makes the xref a permanent part

of the design drawing. Keeping all files together as a package allows functionality in any situation. This method shall apply to all submissions that do not use relative paths.

of 35

3. The University of Connecticut Standard Border shall be used. The text/attributes shall be inserted into each sheet as an independent element. The text block shall not be altered (exploded, rearranged, etc.) in any way.

LAYERING General Rules and Uses The University of Connecticut has adopted the AIA CAD Layer Guidelines Second Edition for layer naming. A list of typical layers for University of Connecticut projects is noted on pages 15 through 27 of this document. The A/E firm should also refer to the “Attributes (Colors & Pens)” for colors & line weights. The A/E should utilize the AutoCAD Layer Manager to create and list applicable UCONN/AIA layers for their particular project. Unused layer should be purged from the CAD file prior to submitting them to the university. Consistency in layers and pen weights allows the university to open and print drawings from multiple consultants with the same result and quality.

Diagram 2.0

of 35

The UCONN standard for layering follows the American Institute of Architects (AIA) CAD layer Guidelines.

LAYER NAME FORMATTING

The layer name formatting will consist of a two to four sequence of identifiers. Below are three examples:

A-WALL discipline code + major group A-WALL-FULL discipline code + major group + minor group A-WALL-DEMO discipline code + major group + status The discipline codes are shown below.

Cover – Cover E – Electrical M – Mechanical Index – Title Page F- Furniture P – Plumbing A – Architectural FP – Fire Protection S – Structural ASB - Asbestos FS – Food Service T – Telecom AV – Audio Visual G – Signs U – Utilities C – Civil H – HVAC X - Survey D- Demolition L – Site Plans The discipline code will be followed by a major group designation which identifies the building system. The major group will be followed by a minor group designation to further define the major group. The major group can also be followed by a status designation. The status designation will further define the work; when phases of the work need to be differentiated. Examples are shown below: NEW new work EXST existing to remain DEMO existing to demolish FUTR future work TEMP temporary work MOVE items to be removed RELO relocated items NICN not in contract PHS1-9 phase numbers (1-9)

Policy on CAD FILE TRANSLATION Error-free AutoCAD Drawing Deliverables: Some A/E Firms do not use AutoCAD or the same version of AUTOCAD currently used by the University of Connecticut. However, it is expected that A/E Firms submit DWG formatted CAD files upon project closeout. Cad files shall be fully compliant with the standards outlined herein, and shall have no significant loss of drawing entities or project data that can result from standard CAD file translation procedures. The University of Connecticut requires DWG files and CAD drawings that can be manipulated using standard AutoCAD drafting procedures. Non-compliance with this policy may result in the rejection of CAD files submitted at project closeout and may result in delayed rendering of final project payment. DXF files are not an acceptable substitution for DWG CAD file deliverables. Translation Testing Recommended: For firms translating their native CAD, RVT, or other file formats into an AutoCAD format that is compatible with the university, should verify they are delivering error- free CAD files. Thorough file translation testing is recommended before the drawing development phase of the project. Early detection of possible file conversion problems will allow for corrective measures before project closeout. SECTION 3.0.0 – DRAWING FILE/SEQUENCE NUMBER STANDARD To ensure consistency in the updating, use, and archiving of CAD files; a standardized system will be implemented to ensure drawings will be identified with relevant file numbers during the initial phases of each project. The recommended Procedure Is Outlined As Follows: DRAWING FILE NO. ASSIGNMENT PROCEDURE

1. The Architect/Engineer/Designer shall ascertain the amount and type of drawings required.

2. The Architect/Engineer/Designer shall provide UCONN with a list indicating the amount of drawings, the type of drawings to be provided and the proposed files names for the associated drawings.

3. UCONN shall review the list of file names proposed for drawing submissions to ensure compliance with CAD submission standards.

4. All pertinent information concerning each drawing file shall be indicated in the drawing list including

the file name, campus location, building number, drawing type, file name and number. Drawing type designations shall be by discipline i.e. Civil, Landscape, Architectural, Structural, Mechanical, Electrical & Fire Protection etc…

5. For sizeable projects, additional numbers in the same numbering sequence will be reserved to insure

project number continuity in the event additional drawing number assignments are required. (Upon request and when applicable)

6. The Consultant will submit a hard copy project log designed to follow projects from inception until

completion. The log will contain drawing and project status on an on-going basis, and will be submitted with CAD file submissions.

DRAWING FILE NO. SAMPLES

Proper file names allow archiving of CAD files at project completion. Files that contain the proper year of construction, building name and sheet number will not be in conflict with other files

of 35

already stored on the university’s file storage system. Drawing names should contain no more than 14 characters. Drawing file names should also be under a file folder that clearly indicates the project number and project name. Tiff & PDF files should be named in a similar format. Sample significant building drawing file numbers and submitted drawing lists should look like this: (Sample Wilbur Cross Building #0126)

SECTION 4.0.0 – ROOM NUMBERING ON FLOOR PLANS

The University of Connecticut has adopted a standard method of handling room numbers which should be adopted from the earliest possible point in the design process and carried throughout to completion. The A/E shall use the UConn Room Numbering System on all drawings. At design development completion, the A/E will work with “The Office of University Planning” to develop room numbers consistent with the University system. The following procedure shall be followed by all A/E’s. LOBBIES, VESTIBULES, CORRIDORS, STAIRS, ELEVATORS, ETC.

# # # - # 0 0 A A

I-------- Single or Double Letter Suffix: I First Letter indicates additional room/closet in the main room. I I I Second Letter indicates any room/closet, if existing, in additional room. I I I I I I------------ Two Digit Room Number I I I I------------------ Single Letter/Digit Number – Assumes no more than 9 floors above ground. I Increases to two digits when 10 or more floors or if there is a sub-basement. I 00 or SB – Sub-Basement (0012) I 0 or B – Basement (019)

I G – Ground Floor (only needed if entries exist on two levels) I PH – Penthouse

Doors should be numbered with a system which reflects the room number to which the door allows access. For example, the door to room 104 should be labeled “104/1” or “104/A” or similar system.

After the final plans are approved, the A/E shall prepare a separate room numbering plan, showing all rooms and spaces, with numbers as indicated above, and names. This drawing shall also be transmitted to the University in CAD format on a computer disc (see CAD File below for submitting procedures). All CAD files must be submitted in the most current version of AUTOCAD. Drawing shall show distinctions in wall thickness of major walls and interior partitions. Plan shall also show all entrances and exits, stairways, elevators, service areas and major architectural features, such as window walls, plazas, ramps and loading docks. Space Planning drawings do not need dimensions shown, and details not pertinent of the general layout should be omitted.

SECTION 5.0.0 – SET PROCESS & ADDENDA SET PROCESS These procedures pertain to submissions that are required for contractual purposes per the university’s Project Contractual Agreements with consultants and contractors. The Phases of the bid process and construction are as follows:

1. Permit/Bid Set – (To be submitted to the Design Project Manager) 100% Design drawings used for the bidding process. The submitting of this set shall be as per the Project’s Contractual Agreement. All electronic drawings must have all corresponding signatures attached. Drawing Sets that do not contain signatures shall be rejected and must be resubmitted.

2. Construction Documents/Contract Set – (To be submitted to the Design Project Manager) Same as
