Architectural Working Drawings Guide

The document provides guidelines for producing a set of detailed working drawings for a construction project. It includes a list of drawings that should be created, such as floor plans, elevations, sections, and details. It also lists standards for the drawings, such as appropriate CAD layers, schedules, scales, lineweights, and other information that should be included like drawing numbers, titles, and legends. Adopting a standard like the National CAD Standard (NCS) can help ensure a unified approach to building information modeling and design data across projects.

WORKING DRAWINGS

he National CAD Standard (NCS) is a collaborative effort in the United States among computer-


aided design (CAD) and building information modeling (BIM) users. Its goal is to create a unified
approach to the creation of building design data. Development of the NCS is open to all building
professionals in a collaborative process led by the buildingSMART Alliance.[1]
The NCS is composed of CAD layer guidelines from the American Institute of Architects, uniform
drawing system modules from the Construction Specifications Institute, and BIM implementation
and plotting guidelines from the National Institute of Building Sciences. Adoption of the NCS is
voluntary, however adopting companies and agencies can require its use by their associates.

1:200 (1/16”=1’0”) – Site plan

1:100 (1/8”=1’0”) – Floor plans, elevations and sections


1:50 (1/4”=1’0”) – Floor plans, elevations and sections

1:20 (3/4”=1’0”) – Room plans, interior elevations

1:10 (1 1/2”=1’0”) – Joinery, component details, construction details

1:5 (3”= 1’0”) – Construction details

Lineweights

Heavier line weights usually denote what is being cut or the perimeter of
something

 Line weights can define, outline, highlight and capture attention.
