ENGINEERING DRAWING CONTROL

1 OBJECTIVE The objective of this procedure is to define a standard method of controlling, numbering, issuing, revising and approving the engineering drawings generated by Ventech Engineers, LLC. 2 SCOPE This procedure applies to all engineering drawings generated for Ventech projects, studies, and proposals. For control of other project documentation and specifications generated by Ventech or outside of Ventech, see Procedure 4.5-2 "Project Documentation Control", and procedure 4.5-9 Engineering Specification Control. 3 AUTHORITY Engineering Department managers are responsible for ensuring that the engineering drawing documentation is controlled in accordance with this procedure. The Piping Department Manager is responsible for maintaining this procedure. 4 REFERENCES Procedure 4.5-2: Project Documentation Control Procedure 4.5-7: Magnetic Data Control Procedure 4.5-8: Proposal, Study and Project Number Assignment Work Instruction 4.4-PD-01: Work Instruction for Isometric Drafting 5 PROCEDURES 5.1 ENGINEERING DRAWING CONTROL 5.1.1 A drawing status report (See Example Form 4.5-6.1) shall be developed by each department manager at the beginning of each project.

5.1.3

The person generating the drawing is responsible for inputting their name or initials along with the current date in the "BY" (drawn by) area in the title block. It is the responsibility of the department manager to ensure that the "start date" is recorded on the document and in the "Drawing Status Report". The drawing status report shall be issued to each department manager periodically as required by changes in drawing status. This will ensure that the reports are readily available to any employee needing to certify the status of a drawing. All magnetic copies of drawings shall be stored and archived in accordance with Procedure 4.5-7 "Magnetic Data Control". It is the responsibility of each department manager to maintain files containing hard copies of drawings. The original drawings shall be stored in a safe place to be readily retrieved for future copies. If necessary, a copy of the original can be placed in a stick file or other suitable location for reference to other disciplines. All drawings that have "hand" signatures in the proper blocks, as defined in this procedure, shall be the original. When an approved drawing is revised, the previously approved drawing shall have the word "VOID" stamped or written in ink on the original. The word "void" on these drawings shall ensure that only the current revision is in circulation. Approved drawings that have been voided, shall be kept for historical or possible legal reference. Each department shall have work instructions outlining how drawings are to be maintained within their department. The drawing status report will be issued periodically in accordance with the document matrix.

Equipment drawings shall not receive numbers as defined in 5.2.2. The equipment number shall be the drawing number. If the equipment requires more than one drawing, the sheet number shall dissimilate the drawing number. (i.e., if the equipment number is V-101 and requires three drawings, all three drawing numbers will be V-101 dissimilated by its respective sheet number.)

The initiator, if other than a department manager, shall turn the package over to the department manager for approval. If the department manager approves the transmittal, the department manager shall sign or initial the "approved by" area on the transmittal. 5.3.6.1 After the in-house transmittal has been approved by the department manager, the transmittal and drawing(s) shall be returned to the Project Secretary. The Project Secretary shall forward the package to the Project Manager for final review. Once the Project Manager is satisfied with the package being transmitted, the Project Manager shall sign or initial the "approved by" area on the transmittal.

ENGINEERING DRAWING REVISIONS AND APPROVALS 5.4.1 IN GENERAL: The revision description area is located on the left side of the drawing title block (See Attachment "A"). It shall be used to record the type of revision that the drawing represents. A maximum of three revisions will be recorded on any given engineering drawing produced by Ventech. The person that is physically revising the drawing shall input their initials in the "By" block of the revision description area. They shall also input the type of revision along with the description. The "CHK" (checked by), "APP"(approved by) and "DATE" blocks shall be left blank for hand signatures and dates. Once the revision description area is filled with three revisions, the oldest revision shall be deleted and replaced with the new revision. If the preceding revision had hand signatures and/or dates in the "CHK" (checked by), "APP" (approved by) or "DATE" block, then these initials shall be electronically entered into their appropriate locations. The revision block is located on the lower right of the title block. (See Attachment "A"). It shall be used to record the current revision level of the drawing. PRELIMINARY ISSUES: Preliminary issues made during the development of a drawing shall bear the letter "A" in both the revision description area and the revision block. Subsequent revisions shall be dissimilated by using a numerical sequence, such as A1, A2, A3, etc. The revision description shall simply state the word "Preliminary". 5.4.3.1 Preliminary drawings that are issued for reference do not need to be signed off in any of the checked by or the approval areas of the title block.

5.4.2

5.4.3

5.4.4

CLIENT APPROVAL ISSUES: Drawings that are issued for client approval shall bear the letter "B" in both the revision description area and the revision block. Subsequent revisions shall be dissimilated by using a numerical sequence, such as B1, B2, B3, etc. The revision description shall simply state the words "Client Approval". At this time all preliminary revisions shall be deleted from the revision description area and only the client approval revisions shall be recorded henceforth.

APPROVED FOR CONSTRUCTION ISSUES: Drawings that are issued approved for construction shall bear the number "0" (zero) in both the revision description area and the revision block. The revision description shall simply state the words "Approved For Construction". Subsequent revisions shall be dissimilated by using a numerical sequence, such as 1, 2, 3, etc. The revision description shall briefly describe what was revised on the drawing. 5.4.5.1 Drawings that are being issued for construction shall follow the same steps as defined in this Procedure, section 5.4.4.1. In addition to those steps, the checked and approval blocks next to the confidential statement are to be hand signed and dated (See Attachment "A"). These blocks are to be signed only if the drawing is at revision "0". Revision "0" indicates that the drawing is "Approved for Construction". The following personnel shall be responsible for signing and dating these blocks. "Drawn" block Entered electronically by the person when the drawing was generated.
