Approval drawing
APPROVAL DRAWING
- 1.ShipConstructor/Navigator/Approval/Click new/ Name Approval.
- 2.SC Approval/ Insert Group
Arrange all planar and curved groups in layout frames with correct scale (layer Defpoints, layer colour Magenta)
Note: If attaching a planar group via ShipConstructor fails, then use AutoCad Xref » Attach
Rules
- Use correct layout template
- Layout names ‘Sheet 1’, ‘Sheet 2’, etc.
- Fill up titleblock at least with:
- Date
- Scale
- Format
- Sheet number and total
- Viewports
- Scale (in order of preference):
- 1:20
- 1:25
- 1:40
- Scale for details:
- 1:2
- 1:5

Guidelines
• Arrange planar groups in the following order: 1. Frames 2. Longitudinals 3. Decks 4. Curved plate • Small projects: arrange planar groups vertically conform their position in reality; place the keel on the bottom of the drawing, place roofs on top of the drawing • Arrange small parts (brackets, etc.) near the adjacent part
Check
• Presence of all planar groups • Correct layer use • Undesired layers
PROCEDURE FOR CREATING AN APPROVAL DRAWING
- 1.Make sure the approval drawing is completely arranged and saved
- 2.Click Approval » Save As Bound Approval
- 3..Location Project » Drawings
- 4.Name is ‘project Approval date’ (08025 Approval 14-08-2008.dwg)
- 5.Click Yes for ‘Remove all solids’
- 6.Bind planar groups which cannot be bound with Shipconstructor (many times ‘crv plate’ groups) manually via ‘xref’ / bind
- 7.Use Quick Select (Propereties window) to:
- •Explode all block references
- •Explode all ARLCMarklines
- •Delete all ARLDDoubleCurveSurfaces
- •Delete all unnecessary layers
- 8.Move all entities to the ‘0’-layer.
- 9.Purge the drawing
- 10.Move viewports to layer ‘VP’ and switch the layer off
- 11.Check for undesired layers
Note: If binding via ShipConstructor fails then use the AutoCad command Xref » Bind
