CAD Standards

Foreword

 

These standards have been compiled to serve as a guide for producing drawings with a uniform, professional appearance.  They are intended to be used as a guideline by experienced City of Lake Oswego personnel and by consulting engineers who design construction projects for the Public Works Department.  These standards cover the use of computer aided drafting (CAD). The word 'City' in this booklet shall mean the City of Lake Oswego.

The quality of our work should be reflected in the drawings.  It is important to retain high standards of accuracy, legibility, uniformity and neatness.  Each of us should become familiar with these standards as our output reflects the joint efforts of a number of people. 

It should be recognized too, that these standards will need further development on a continuing basis.  As new techniques in CAD are developed, they may be added to these standards.  Comments and suggestions for additions or improvements are encouraged and will be reviewed as the standards are updated.  Please especially note on our comment form any discrepancies, contradictions or errors.  

The attention of Consulting Engineers is also directed to Example Drawing No's. 1, 2, 3 and 4 for wastewater, storm drainage, water and street projects.

Note:
This CAD Standard and Design Requirements manual along with Standard Detail Drawings are also available on-line in the 'Engineering' section of the City of Lake Oswego's web-site at: http://www.ci.oswego.or.us/engineer/
