Foreword
CADD has become an essential, every day tool throughout daily operation all over our design offices. Our
increased dependence upon the system, together with the complexity of our projects, necessitates that we
issue an agreed-upon set of standards for implementation by all departments based on National CADD
Standards ( NCS.)
On behalf of the Dar CADD Committee (DCC), I’d like to introduce the following set of guidelines for our immediate
implementation and usage. These guidelines have been designed to allow us to maintain a high-level of standard
in our projects, to help us increase our efficiency and productivity, and to simplify our internal and external project
operations.
I welcome your feedback and appreciate any input to further improve of these guidelines.

Drafting concerns
This handbook is designed to help you organize your electronic data for easier “information sharing” within Dar, and to serve as a
guideline for all CADD-related procedures. The following issues are developed for implementation:
2. CADD Files
Types 2/Sheet files
CADD files can be referenced by other CADD files to provide Sheet files contain one or more views of model(s). The
means of sharing, coordinating, and revising data. views are usually arranged within a border and also include
a title block with project/client/consultant information.
There are three (3) types of CADD files:
1. Model files (project-related)
2. Sheet files (project-related) In some cases - especially in smaller projects - model and sheet
3. Library/standard details/stock files (non-project related) data are combined in the same CADD file. In these instances, it
may be easier to manage sheet and model information, when it is
contained in a single file. Distinguishing between models and
sheets is useful because CADD drawings are generally

based on their own needs. However, a standardized naming
convention of all CADD files allows us to determine the contents
of a drawing file without actually displaying it. Standardized
naming also provides a convenient and clear structure for
organizing the drawing files within project directories. The
naming system is limited to eight-characters for a file name, in
order to be recognizable within the DOS operating system.
1/ Model files naming convention
Standardized naming for a CADD model file includes two sets Figure 2. How to name a model file

user-definable field. (Please see Figure 2.)

APPENDIX B: MENU STARTUP
Several lisps and CUIs were developed by each department in order to suit their needs regarding
Toolbars and Menus. Moreover, in several departments some lisps, allowing the automatic
insertion of layers into the drawing, were developed.
The following menus and lisps are loaded at startup for each department:
Architecture
• lll.lsp and ggg.lsp are loaded as applications in the drawing. They are found under the
location k:\Lisp\A
• The command menk will load the Menu.
• The command lsld will load the slides.
• The command lfnt will load the fonts.
• Under ToolsÎOptionsÎSystem, “Load ACAD with every Drawing” should be checked.
• INSLAY.lsp which is loaded as an application in the drawing and whenever the
command INSLAY is executed, a dialog box asks the user to choose which category of layers
(Floor Plans, details..) needs to be inserted in the drawing.
• SLD.cui and FONTS.cui are menus that should be loaded. They exists under the location
K:\Lisp\A
• Support.cui exists under the location k:\Lisp\a\r16
• Architect‐VBA.cui, OSNAPI.cui, SLIDIZ.cui are menus that should be loaded. They exist
under the location K:\Lisp\A\MENU2007 (or MENU2008 depending on the AutoCad version).
Structure
• Under PropertiesÎTarget, browse for k:\Lisp\S\MENU‐2007\profile‐2007.ARG
• The template slay‐aia.dwt was designed so that whenever it is used, all the layers will be
automatically inserted in the drawing. It is found under K:\ Lisp\S\MENU16.
• The menus Tool‐Struct.cui, added‐blocks.cui and ACAD.cui are loaded. They exist under the
location k:\Lisp\S\MENU2006 (or MENU2007 depending on the version of CAD used.)
Electrical
• Elayer.lsp, elayrod.lsp, elaydet.lsp, elayriser.lsp and elaytxt.lsp are loaded as applications
in the drawing. They are found under the location k: \Lisp\E. whenever these lisps are loaded, a
new button “Make Layer For Elec” is added to the menu and allows users to insert standard
electrical layers into the drawing.
• elec‐com.cui, elec‐tools.cui are menus that should be loaded and that exist under the
location k:\Lisp\E\MENU2007 (or MENU2008 depending on the CAD version that users are using)
Mechanical
• Under ToolsÎOptionsÎFilesÎSupport File Search Path the following folders should be
added:
• MENU2006 under k:\Lisp\M
• MENU16 under k:\Lisp\M
• M2001 under k:\Lisp\M
• DWG under k:\Lisp\M
• FONTS under k:\Lisp\M
• FONTS under k:\Lisp\A
• Under k:\Lisp\M\MENU16 (or MENU2006..), Flyout‐mech.cui, industrial.cui, M‐2008.cui,
toolbars‐Mech.cui should be loaded into the drawing.
Bridges
• Under PropertiesÎTarget, browse for k:\Lisp\S\MENU‐2007\profile‐2007.ARG
• The template Blay‐aia.dwt was designed so that whenever it is used, all the layers
will be automatically inserted in the drawing. It is found under K:\ Lisp\S\MENU16.
• The menus Tool‐Struct.cui, added‐blocks.cui and ACAD.cui are loaded. They exist
under the location k:\Lisp\S\MENU2006 (or MENU2007 depending on the version of CAD
used.)
Landscaping
• Architect‐VBA.cui, OSNAPI.cui, SLIDIZ.cui are menus that should be loaded. They exist
under the location K:\Lisp\A\MENU2007 (or MENU2008 depending on the AutoCad version).
Geotechnical
• Geolay.lsp is loaded as an application in the drawing. It is found under the location k:
\Lisp\E. After loading it, whenever the command Geolay is executed, the standard
geotechnical layers are inserted into the drawing.
• mico.cui and geosymbol.cui are menus that are loaded to the software. They are found
under k:\Lisp\GANDM\Geo‐MNU‐R2006
Environmental
• Retool.cui is a menu that is loaded to the software. It is found under k:\Lisp\RE\MENU2006 (or
MENU2007…) depending on the CAD version used.
Transportation
• Only the default CAD menus are used.
Town Planning
• Only the default CAD menus are used.
Interior Architecture
• INTRLAY.lsp is loaded as an application in the drawing and whenever the command INTRLAY is executed, a
dialog box asks the user to choose which category of layers (Floor Plans, details..) needs to be inserted in
the drawing.
• THE NCS‐dar.ctb file is inserted in CAD indicates the Plot Style to be used. In order to insert it in your
drawings go to ToolsÎOptionsÎPlot and Publish and click on PLOT STYLE TABLE SETTINGS.
• There is also a drawing containing the standards regarding annotation used in all drawings. The IAU
ANNOTATION DRAWING contains all of the IAU annotation standards that should be used when creating
sheets in Model and Paper Space.
The purpose of this drawing is to have consistency in the Annotation and Presentation of all IAU Working
Drawings by following the standards provided. The IAU CAD manager will lead you to this drawing and will
update you on any changes that are incorporated into this it.
• Good CAD practices especially for the Interior Architecture Unit:
1. To start a new drawing, do not “save as” a previous drawing used on a previous project. Always
create a new drawing, use INTRLAY to get your layers and the IAU ANNOTATION drawing. This will
provide any user with the latest layers, attributes, text styles.
2. When drawing, never change the By Layer Settings. Always use By Layer. The IAU Layers has been
developed to allow the user a variety of layers and pen thickness to achieve the desired effect.
3. The user is to use the correct layers which are listed in APPENDIX A. This will aid him turning off or
on any layers that may not be required in any drawing.
4. The user is never to explode or “fudge” dimensions.
5. Use the standard hatch available through lisps, HH, HH1 and HH2.
6. The user should plot the drawings using the standard IAU CTB file (NCS‐dar.ctb). No user is allowed
to create a separate CTB file.
7. Text height has been set up in the IAU Annotation Drawing and the user should abstain from
altering any text style or height.
8. Do not import, copy or paste any information into your drawing that is not from a current IAU
project, this is to ensure that unwanted attributes, layers, scale factors and settings are not
introduced into the users drawing.
9. The user is to ensure that he saves his/her work frequently.
