Dennis,
This issue is comprehensively addressed in CSI's Uniform Drawing System (UDS), which is an integral component of the U.S. National CAD Standard (NCS),
www.nationalcadstandard.org. NCS builds upon and extends the earlier ConDoc system, no longer published, that was mentioned in a post by another member.

Subject: What information is found where in a CD set?
This message has been cross posted to the following Discussion Forums: Practice Management and Technology in Architectural Practice .

Am looking for documents, white papers or studies that discuss what information should be found where in a Construction Document set. Over the years I have been involved in a fair number of friendly debates over where best to locate CD information. The goal being to reference information once and in a location that helps assure that information will be found by the general contractor, subcontractors, suppliers and those doing construction administration.
Thank You:
Dennis
