1: Overview This manual was created for the New Mexico Department of Transportation to assist in standardizing Computer Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) deliverables produced within, and for, the department. Items in this section:

What’s New

Purpose

CADD Platforms

Glossary of Terms

Paradigms

Section 1


What’s New The following changes have been made to this document:

• 2018 is the NMDOT standard version of AutoCAD Civil 3D• Inclusion of Bridge standards• Text standards documented

• AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018

As of this publication date, Autodesk Civil 3D 2019 is not supported.

Purpose The purpose of this manual is to establish and document general CADD standards to be utilized for all civil engineering projects developed for NMDOT, regardless of the entity creating the plans.

The creation of electronic files is merely the initial process of their life span. Project files are shared and referenced by many individuals. Establishing standards allows individuals to reliably utilize project files with predictable results and behaviors.

This manual presents these standards in a format that is easily understood by any individual with basic CADD knowledge. The contract between NMDOT and its consultants, or contractors define the exact terms and conditions regarding procedures and standards to be followed.

This manual is a living document. NMDOT will update this manual when necessary and make it available to consultants and internal staff.

CADD Platforms NMDOT has committed to the implementation and support of AutoCAD Civil 3D on future projects. NMDOT’s currently supported versions of software are:

Section 1


Glossary of Terms

.ctb – An AutoCAD plot style that is based on the color of the object to determine color, line weight (thickness), or linetype. Changing the color of an object will modify the printed results.

.dwg – Default file extension for files created by AutoCAD.

.stb – An AutoCAD plot style that allows the properties of the element to determine the printed results. Each element has properties that determine color, line weight (thickness), and linetype.

AutoCAD - CAD platform designed by Autodesk, Inc.

Base File –AutoCAD file created with design elements to be used as a reference file only.

Block– A group of elements created for use as a single element repeatedly. Blocks are stored within the AutoCAD drawing file.

CAD – Acronym for Computer Aided Drafting.

CADD – Acronym for Computer Aided Drafting & Design.

Color Table – Used to assign specific colors to elements using numeric values.

Consultant Deliverable Guidelines – Document detailing consultant deliverable requirements, namely digital file submission.

Extended Characters – Special symbol characters located within an AutoCAD or TrueType font resource file.

Layers – An element in a CAD file in which CAD programs segregate information for the user to aid in the display of the design. For example, the centerline of a roadway may be placed on a level named “VF-ROAD-CNTR-P”. The striped centerline may be placed on another level named “VF-ROAD-CNTR-E”. The user would then have the ability to show one of these centerlines by merely turning off the other level.

Linear Elements – Made up of either lines or various types of arcs, linear elements account for a majority of a design file.

Macros – A simple “program” used in applications that assist in automating repetitive commands. An example of a macro would be to change the “case” of text from lower to upper throughout a design file.

PCN – Acronym for Project Control Number. A PCN is a numeric value assigned to every civil engineering project to aid the DOT in tracking the design.

Raster Images – An image used in a design file to display either the project area, or a specific item within the project (i.e. a scanned New Mexico map to show location of project on the vicinity map). “Raster image” is typically used in reference to an Aerial photograph.

Reference File – A term used to describe a source file when the information is viewed from another file. A reference file is typically a base file used for information for the sheet file (i.e. plan and profile sheet).

Share – Folders located on a server with user and/or group permissions.

Servername – Example name of a server on the NMDOT Domain or a corporate domain.

Sharename – Example name of folder “shared” on the NMDOT servers or a corporate server.

Section 1


Sheet File – Design files that reference base files to display information in a manageable fashion. Sheet files are the files that are printed to create the plan set for any given civil engineering project.

Symbology – This term refers to the weight, color, and style of vector elements in a design file.

UNC – Universal Naming Convention; designated by \\servername\sharename.

Vector Elements – Any element created within a CAD application is a vector element. The most common elements are lines and arcs. These elements are often the output of the engineering software.

Working Units – Working units are merely units of measurement used in a CAD file to determine distance.

Section 1

Section 2


2: Directory Structure This section discusses the basis of the CADD environment: the directory structures. The two structures of utmost importance are the project directories. NMDOT has also created downloadable project template folders, which will create a similar directory structure on any local area network. In addition to the folders, the CADD Support Section has developed downloadable consultant workspaces, which should be utilized by all consultants doing work for the NMDOT (See Section 15 for additional information). The NMDOT requires all projects created for the State of New Mexico to follow certain criterion and has created these files and workspace for this purpose. Items discussed in this section:

Project Directory Structure

CADD Standards Directory Structure

Section 2


Project Directory Structure The New Mexico Department of Transportation has developed a standard project directory structure to be utilized for all projects within the NMDOT. This includes deliverables submitted to the NMDOT by consulting firms performing work for the NMDOT. This project directory structure organizes the entire project within one main folder and departmentalizes the project by design disciplines. In addition to departmental directories, each project folder allocates directory locations for construction as-built drawings, completed Plans, and a Project_Resources directory for output files created for use in the current project.

This project workflow consists of existing and proposed design information, including a “Construction” folder for as-built data. Additionally, each project directory structure will include a “Plans” directory to store completed project design files for archival and if necessary, submission outside of the agency. This includes the project title sheets and vicinity map. The fifth and final primary folder, “Project_Resources”, is intended to store project files which may be generated, such as a project-specific block libraries.

The NMDOT project directory structure is to be adhered to unless given explicit, written permission from NMDOT to deviate. Any un-approved deviations from the project directory structure will be denied and the consultant will be responsible for the modifications necessary to meet the NMDOT standards.

Section 2


Detailed Summary of Directories

Table 2.1: Project Directory Root Structure

PCN – Project Control Number used as root folder

_data - _data folder is used for Civil 3D shortcut information and related files.

Construction – Construction As-Built folder used to store As-Built drawings usually stored as scanned .TIFF images or .pdf file formats.

Existing – Existing folder utilized for existing design information such as existing survey, aerial photos, existing surfaces, existing horizontal alignments, etc.

ITS – ITS folder used to all files referring to Intelligent Transportation base files.

Project_Resources – This directory is to be used to store any project-specific files such as block libraries, custom linetypes, etc.

PDE – PDE folder will contain vital project information and will be maintained regularly. Items such as certifications, environmental documents, ROW, Utilities, correspondence, estimates per milestone, schedule, design diary, etc.

Plans – Plans folder used for storage of completed project plan sheets, Project Title and Vicinity Map sheets. Staging folder for project archival and external project submission.

Proposed – Proposed folder used for all proposed project design files. Included in each proposed discipline is a folder for documentation and work. The Work folder is to be utilized for temporary or scratch drafting/design files and is NOT to be used for final design files. A documentation directory structure to be used for discipline specific documentation is also included.

PSE_ENGR – PSE_ENGR folder is used internally only.

Section 2


Figure 2.1: Project Directory Expanded

Section 2


PCN Explained The NMDOT Project Control Number (PCN) designates the project folder name as assigned by the NMDOT planning department and is primarily designated as a four or six-digit number. This number is used throughout the project and will be used in conjunction with each project file naming convention. (See Section 4 for additional information).

Primary Sub Directories Six primary subdirectories (Construction, Existing, ITS, PDE, Plans, and Proposed) are intended to house all project information in a segregated manner, focusing on all phases of a project. These phases designate a “start to finish” progression, thus, each primary folder represents a phase in the project. The Project_Resources sub directory is intended to serve as the directory housing any created project files such as block libraries.

Figure 2.2: Project Root Directory Structure

Section 2


_data The _data subfolder is used exclusively to house the Civil 3D shortcut and survey files. Files stored in these folders are created automatically by Civil 3D and consist of XML, log files, and database files.

Figure 2.3: _data Folder

Construction The Construction subfolder is used exclusively to house the final project As-Built drawings and pdfs.

Figure 2.4: Construction Folder

Section 2


Existing To designate project conception, the Existing subfolder includes survey, right of way (ROW), and photogrammetry related project information. Additionally, a folder for Preliminary Survey exists to store work in progress data. As referenced in the File Naming Convention section, relative information is to be stored in these sub-folders as seen in Table 3.1. A detailed example of all existing sub directories can be seen in Table 2.1.

Project_Resources The Project_Resources directory is to be utilized for any project files such as new project specific block libraries.

Figure 2.7: Project_Resources Folder

Section 2


PDE The PDE folder will contain vital project information and will be maintained regularly. Items such as certifications, environmental documents, ROW, utilities, correspondence, estimates per milestone, schedule, design diary, etc.

Figure 2.8: PDE Folder

Section 2


Plans The Plans folder is used for storage of completed project plan sheets, project title and vicinity map sheets. Staging folder for project archival and external project submission. Any file that is directly printed to create the final plan set belongs in this directory, within the appropriate subdirectory. The project sheet set manager file (PCN-SheetSet.dst) should be located at the root of this directory.

Figure 2.9: Plans Folder

For the segregation and placement of the sheet files in a NMDOT project, refer to Section 3.

Section 2


Proposed The Proposed subdirectory designates departmental specific “proposed” design data and includes documentation, data, and working subfolders. A detailed explanation of all proposed subdirectories is outlined in Table 2.2.

Table 2.3: Proposed subdirectories

PSE_ENGR The final subdirectory (PSE_ENGR) is used for internal purposes. Every project is subject to reviews by the PSE section within NMDOT. All files created during this review is housed in this folder. Any data created during this review will be placed in this subdirectory.

Figure 2.10: PSE_ENGR folder

Section 2



Section 3


3: Project Plan Sets The standard medium of a civil design project is the printed hard copies. These hard copies relay the information from survey, to design, to construction. It is vitally important that this information be standardized to simplify the exchange of information. In addition, standardization of this information has a positive impact on the many individuals who create these plan sets. This section discusses the project plan set as an entity and the elements these plan sets consist of. Items discussed in this section:

Planimetric vs. Informational

Basic Numbering Scheme

Section 3


Planimetric vs. Informational The standard civil design plan set is comprised of two general sheet types: planimetric and informational.

Planimetric sheets containing a plan (overhead) view of the design which is based on the NM State Plane Coordinate system 1983 or a NMDOT approved coordinate system. Examples of a planimetric sheet are: a plan and profile sheet, a striping sheet, or a lighting sheet.

Informational sheets can be graphical or non-graphical and are not coordinate correct. A non-graphical sheet does not contain a view of the project, but merely contains project specific information, such as a summary of quantities. A graphical sheet does contain at least one view of the project, but does not have to be coordinate correct, such as a vicinity map of the project. Examples of an informational sheet would be a typical section sheet, a general notes sheet, or a border sheet.

Basic Numbering Scheme In addition to the types of sheets, the plan set has been organized into thirteen categories. Regardless of the project and the criteria of the project, the categories remain constant. Each category contains either planimetric or informational sheets. The terms “One Sheets” and “Two Sheets” are often used to describe the information within that category. “Nine Sheets” would contain the signalization sheets for a project. If the project is a rural road with no intersections, the “Nine Sheets” would be omitted, and the next category would remain the “Ten Sheets” being the structure placements. Please refer to Table 3.1 for the entire listing of sheets and numbering scheme.

4: File Naming Conventions NMDOT has developed a file naming convention that is to be applied in every project delivered to the department. This section also addresses workflow issues within the CADD application and the separation of sheet files and base files. Items discussed in this section:

Base files vs. Sheet Files

Standard Base files

Standard Sheet files

Section 4


Base Files vs. Sheet Files The term “base file” best describes a graphic design file containing project information such as planimetrics, cross sections, and profiles. The base file is referenced to multiple “sheet files” to display the project information in its entirety. Every element within a base file is created at a 1:1 scale. Text created in a base file must reflect the sheet file plotting scale (See Section 10 for additional information).

A “sheet file” is a design file containing a border, project information text, north arrows, and has base files referenced to display project information within a specific area. A sheet file is used to scale the project information to a specific plotting unit. Sheet file is the digital version of the hardcopy paper output. Sheet files are to be created regardless of CAD platform used in project development.

NMDOT requires the use of AutoCAD layouts. Annotation scaling must be used in all sheet files used to create an NMDOT plan set.

Standard Base Files All base files are created with a naming convention allowing the individual to easily identify the project, contents of the file, and the design group responsible for the data.

Border Dimensions The NMDOT border is typically plotted on 11” x 17” paper for submittals and for the contractors to be used in the field. NMDOT supplies all borders scaled 1:1 based on the 11”x17” final print.

Figure 5.1: AutoCAD Plan Border

Section 6


Plan and Profile Generation NMDOT supports the use of the Civil 3D sheet creation process. This tool allows for the easy creation of plan and profile sheets, plan sheets, and double plan/profile sheets.

The sheet creation process for Civil 3D requires the NMDOT_Sheets.dwt to be used when creating the view frames. The use of the sheets template allows the tool to create the sheets using the NMDOT standard borders at standard scales.

Figure 5.2: AutoCAD Plan and Profile Border

Section 6


Consultant Logos To help ensure standards are met on consultant deliverables, NMDOT has included an area in the cover sheets that may be used for consultant logos. An image, or vector elements, may be used in this area to create the consultant logo. The logo must plot correctly using the NMDOT standard plotting methods (see Section 13).

Covers NMDOT utilizes several different covers depending on many factors regarding the project. The NMDOT project manager will communicate which cover is to be used for the given project. The NMDOT covers are designed for final 11” x 17” printing. As with all CAD files delivered by the DOT, the covers are designed to print correctly with the CAD-specific tables made available by NMDOT.

Section 6


Sheet Set Manager The Sheet Set Manager is an important tool in a civil engineering project. It allows the automation of content in a sheet file in a project. NMDOT has developed a custom Sheet Set Manager file, .dst, that is integrated into all its layouts, covers, and borders. This is completed using fields within AutoCAD.

It is not advisable to modify the fields in the covers, or borders, manually. The .dst file should be kept at the root of the \Plans\ directory. This file should be named {PCN}-SheetSet.dst. The custom settings in the .dst file can be accessed by right-clicking on a file added to the .dst file and selecting the Properties… command. The .dst file must be delivered with the project.

6: Template Files The standard NMDOT template files have been developed with careful consideration given to the design specifics of New Mexico projects. These files are the basis of all NMDOT design files and should be used throughout the project. It is paramount that the standards and settings discussed in this section be considered prior to, and during, the development of the project.

It should be noted that all template files are living documents, subject to periodic updates. Please check the NMDOT website for updates.

Items discussed in this section:

Template Files

Units

Coordinate Systems

Angles

Layouts

View Ports

Section 6


Template Files NMDOT has separated its templates into three templates:

• NMDOT_Survey2018.dwt • NMDOT_Bridge2018.dwt • NMDOT2018.dwt

The reason for this separation is to minimize the amount of data used in one file. Autodesk files have the potential to gain large amounts of mass during a civil engineering project. By separating the template, the resulting project files are smaller in size. Another reason for the separation is to minimize the potential of the wrong styles being utilized.

Units NMDOT provides Civil 3D template files for use on all projects designed for the department. All projects are required to use the standard template files.

NMDOT provides an AutoCAD template which are defined in Feet. No coordinate systems or projections are applied to the template.

Figure 6.1: AutoCAD Template Units

Section 6


The structural template is defined in Feet. No coordinate systems or projections are applied to the template.

Figure 6.2: AutoCAD Structural Template Units

Coordinate Systems Coordinate readouts determine the accuracy and format of the overall readout returned by the CAD application. Readouts focus on two specific settings: coordinates and angles. Coordinates set the format and accuracy of the design file, based on the units specified and the degree of accuracy based on decimal or fraction.

The NMDOT template has the coordinates settings established using the foot unit and a precision setting of four decimal places (Figure 6.3).

Figure 6.3: AutoCAD Coordinate Settings

Section 6


Angles Angles set the format, mode, and accuracy of the design files angular settings. These settings will determine the readout of the angle determined.

Figure 6.4: AutoCAD Direction settings

Layouts Layouts are the AutoCAD version of a digital sheet that is printed to create the individual page to be included in the project plan set. AutoCAD files can have multiple layouts within each drawing. The NMDOT template contains one layout with the NMDOT plan border placed as vector elements for use by the CAD user. The NMDOT_SHEETS.dwt template file has many different layouts (plan and profile, plan, cross sections, book projects, etc.) to be used when creating sheets for a NMDOT project.

NMDOT engineering consultants are welcome to create as many layouts as necessary to effectively create a project plan set. The number of layouts is limited to a maximum of 3 per drawing file (see Sheet Naming below.)

Section 6


Sheet Naming The names of all new models created in a design file should be self-explanatory and the use of the Description field is required. At no point should a model name contain the term “temp” or any deviation thereof. If a temporary model/layout is created during the project development, it must be deleted prior to submission to NMDOT.

If it is determined that a CAD file is to have multiple sheets contributing to the final plan set, the design file name should contain the sheet range.

Design file name Description Sheet Models/Layouts

Plan and Profile sheets 1 thru 3 PP01

PCN3PP01-03.dwg PP02 PP03

PCN2TS01-02.dwg Typical Section sheets 1 and 2 TS01 TS02

Table 6.1: File Naming with Multiple Sheets Models or Layouts

Section 6


View Ports The use of view ports in AutoCAD is essential in the creation of sheets. There are no limitations to the number of viewports in a single layout. Each viewport must have a standard plotting scale associated with it. The standard layouts delivered by NMDOT have a custom north arrow associated with the initial view port. This north arrow is designed to rotate to reflect true north should the view within the view port be rotated. If any other viewports are created and show a plan view, the NMDOT north arrow must be inserted into, and associated with, the viewport.

Figure 6.5: View Port Creation

Section 7


7: Reference Files Reference files are necessary for any creation of drawings and are used extensively throughout the NMDOT design process. The standard workflow of the NMDOT is to utilize references of design base files vs. copying all design information into a single design sheet. This method allows for segregation of design criteria while enabling “real time” updating of design changes. In addition, this method allows for separate level controls enabling the user to control the display of levels within each reference file while not affecting the active design file. Items discussed in this section:

Reference File Usage

Reference Pathing

Section 7


Reference File Usage The NMDOT’s use of reference files is critical to all aspects of project design and brings together multiple design disciplines into a “real time” viewing and editing process. This process becomes important when multiple design aspects, like drainage and roadway design interact on a project. In the case of a roadway widening project, the design team will need to reference the proposed drainage design (i.e. culvert design and locations) including existing contours to determine any potential issues with curb and gutter locations. This communication of information can be made available in “real time” between all departments simultaneously by utilizing reference files.

Reference Pathing Reference pathing in AutoCAD can be accomplished using three methods: Relative, No Path or Full Path. The Full pathing method saves the entire path to the reference file. This includes the mapped drive and directory structure (e.g. K:\OurProjects\NMDOT\PCN\....). Because NMDOT may not utilize the same drive mapping as any consultant, the use of Full Pathing is not recommended.

The No Path option utilizes the project values set in the user’s options. Because each user’s options may vary, the use of No Path is not recommended.

The Relative Path option stores the location of the reference based on the current file’s directory. From the current directory, AutoCAD stores the location as having to navigate up/down folder(s) and stores the names of the remaining folders to navigate. No drive mapping is utilized and only the folders that are pertinent to the location of the reference file is stored (e.g. …\...\Existing\Survey\file.dwg).

When referencing in AutoCAD, it is required that the Path type be set to Relative path and the attachment type is set to Overlay.

8: Layers With the integration of Autodesk products as acceptable formats, NMDOT has changed the leveling structure to align with the National CAD Standards. While the NCS does not allow for major deviations for a government agency such as a department of transportation, NMDOT took liberties with the layering structure. These liberties allow the new laying structure to account for the design sections within the DOT and the types of projects the DOT develops and contracts to firms. Items discussed in this section:

ByLayer Attributes

Layering Schema

Layer Filters

Section 8


AutoCAD Layers AutoCAD layers have symbologies assigned to layers. NMDOT has developed the layering schema within its template file with ByLayer attributes aligned with the standards determined to be NMDOT requirements.

ByLayer Attributes The ability to assign symbologies to a level allows the use of a “ByLayer” setting (see Section 9 for additional information on symbology). Symbologies such as the color of elements, linetypes, and weights can now be assigned to levels. When a level is made the active level, the active weight, linetype and color will automatically be changed if the symbologies are set by-level.

The Layer Manager can be accessed two ways: click on the Layer Properties button (see Figure 8.2), or type in Layer into the command line. NMDOT has decided to use lineweights on all AutoCAD elements. This layer property has already been assigned in the template, but the Show/Hide Lineweight toggle must be on to view properly in the CAD file (see Figure 8.3).

Level Filters Due to the extreme number of layers with the National CAD Standards, NMDOT has developed layer filters to enable users the ability to work with smaller number of layers. Selecting one of the layer filters in the left pane of the Layer Properties Manager dialog box will display only the layers related to the filter in the main pane. The Invert filter toggle located at the bottom of the Filters area will remove the layers associated with the filter and display all remaining filters. The image on the right shows the new filtering tree that excludes all layers from reference files. This allows the user to isolate local layers.

Figure 8.3: Layer filtering

Section 8



Section 9


9: Symbology A CAD application’s settings of color, weight, and linetype are referred to as symbologies. It is possible to assign symbologies to either levels/layers, or to vector elements. The ByLevel/ByLayer setting has been the standard for NMDOT for several years and will continue to be the standard. This section discusses the different symbologies and resource file associated with each. Items discussed in this section:

Weights

Linetypes

Colors

Section 9


Weights Weights refer to the line thicknesses of each element within a design file. The standardization of weights extends to the final plotting of a sheet file. These standards created for weights are based on the idea that all elements representing the proposed design will be prominently represented in the plan set. This has a large impact on contractors in the field and designers completing As-Builts in the office. NMDOT prints by weight and level, not by color.

AutoCAD Weight .00 .05 .09 .18 .20 .25 .30 .35 .50 .80

Table 9.1: Weight mappings

Linetypes Custom linetypes are used to aid the user and contractors in easily distinguishing elements representing design features such as daylight points, electric overhead lines, storm lines, etc. NMDOT has created custom linetypes for use in a NMDOT civil design project.

All NMDOT supported linetypes are contained in the NMDOT template. The source .LIN file can be downloaded from the NMDOT website or can be found in the NMDOT workspace installer.

Colors Every element in a CAD file has a color that is either assigned to the element or assigned to the layer the element is placed on. Colors are very important in a CAD file as they allow for easy identification of elements, and types of elements. Because of both CAD platforms’ ability to plot by weight, NMDOT can assign colors to layers/elements that are somewhat logical (e.g. blue for water, red for electrical).

Section 9


Gray Scaling and RGB values Gray scaling is a method used in a CAD file to “gray out”, or dither, a specified portion of the design to visually depress the boldness of the features. For example, this method is used to reference existing survey features, to “dull” their appearance visually on the screen, and to additionally invoke the plotting output to be “shaded”. This proves beneficial in diminishing the focus on the existing survey while enhancing the proposed design, allowing the designer to see existing and proposed features together on the same design plan sheet.

All gray scaling should be done in the CAD file by modifying the ByLayer symbologies and/or overrides. Several different gray scaling options are available for NMDOT projects (see Table 9.1).

% Shading RGB Value 50% 140,140,140 40% 153,153,153 30% 178,178,178 20% 254,254,254

Table 9.1: Gray scaling values

For AutoCAD deliverables, the standard color index is to be used (see Figure 9.2). All layers should only be assigned colors based on index numbers and not RGB values.

Figure 9.2: AutoCAD color table

Section 10


10: Annotation Annotation within AutoCAD has brought a greater flexibility and integration than previous versions. This added flexibility allows for AutoCAD shape files and Windows systems fonts to be fully integrated within the design environment. NMDOT has chosen to utilize Windows system fonts to be fully compatible between applications. This decision will allow for easy conversion between AutoCAD projects and MicroStation. Items discussed in this section:

NMDOT Standard Fonts

Text Sizes

Text Justification

Special Characters

Section 10


NMDOT Standard Fonts The NMDOT has standardized two primary fonts: Arial for survey and design text and Courier New for title block text. These font types are accessed from Windows System fonts and are represented below.

Existing Text Style = Arial

Proposed Text Style = Arial (with 20˚ slant)

Title Block Text Style = Courier New

Text Sizes The Annotation Scale tool for each CAD application allows for dynamic text sizing with minimal effort. This method allows for the development of sheets with multiple detail scales. The use of the Annotation Scale tool makes all text height calculations unnecessary.

The Annotation Scale tool determines the multiplication factor to be applied to all text and dimensions. The scale is applied by selecting the desired scale for each view port (see Section 6: Layouts).

Structural Civil

General Text 5/64” .07

Title Text 9/64” .10

Text Justification Text justification is described as the “anchor point” for a single text element or multi line text node. This justification is important to set for text placement and alignment. The NMDOT’s standard text justification is defined for single text strings to be Left-Center and for Multi Line text nodes to be Top-Left. This allows all single line text to align from the left and multi-line text such as general notes to align left and start from a Top start point.

The NMDOT’s standard title block text justification should be set within a data file as Center-Center justification. (See Text Fields within this section for additional information).

Section 10


Special Characters Special characters are symbols used for specific design annotation not found in standard font libraries. These symbols represent annotation such as Centerline, Flow Line, etc.

Feature Access Value Symbol Font Base Line \240 extended

Center Line \241 extended

Flow Line \242 extended

NMDOT has not developed a compiled resource file for custom symbols at this time. All custom symbols are to be made from standard text.

Additional Default Symbols AutoCAD Civil 3D allows special characters to be accessed and placed with the following AutoCAD %% method. These symbols are placed utilizing the Arial font.

%% Method:

%%d = degree symbol

%%p = plus minus

%%c = diameter symbol

Figure 10.2: Placing symbols in AutoCAD using %% method

Section 10


Fields Text fields are used within the NMDOT standard title block. These fields are text “place holders” for text to be automatically populated by the desired information. Fields are used to determine last saved date of a file, as well as the username of the person who printed the file. NMDOT will continue to expand the use of fields in subsequent CAD standard releases. All defined fields should not be modified for any file being submitted into NMDOT.

Section 11


11: Blocks New Mexico Department of Transportation provides cell/block libraries for use in all its civil designs. Cells/blocks are utilized in lieu of repeatedly drafting the same elements multiple times. The use of cells also aids in standardizing elements/details of NMDOT projects. Items discussed in this section:

Block Libraries

Block Attributes

Section 11


NMDOT Block Libraries Every block is drawn at a 1:1 scale, based on the NMDOT drawing units.

Block libraries are AutoCAD drawing files with a .dwg extension. They can be opened in AutoCAD as a standard file and the blocks edited using the block editor tool.

The insertion point of each block is the coordinate 0,0. Every element used to create the cells is drawn on the Default, or 0, level, with symbologies set to ByLayer except for Linetype. The linetype is manually set to Continuous to ensure the cell maintains its appearance regardless of the layer the block is placed.

NMDOT has developed the following libraries to be used in its civil designs whether created internally or by a consultant:

AutoCAD Block Library Description

BridgeBlocks.dwg Schedules, details, and symbols used in bridge plan sheets

Coming Soon Cell used in the creation of NPDES sheets

Coming Soon Roadway features, details, and cross section and profile cells

Coming Soon Used for CAD mapping with the NMDOT feature table

Coming Soon Includes North arrow, information cell for border, bar scales, and utilities legend

Coming Soon Signing and traffic control cells. Used to supplement GuidSIGN cell libraries

Table 11.1: Block libraries

Block Attributes Any custom blocks are to be drafted using ByLayer symbologies for color and thickness. Linetypes must remain either continuous or 0.

Section 12


12: Dimensioning The NMDOT has developed dimensioning standards for all internal design departments and consultants to follow. These dimensioning standards follow a simple methodology of settings as referenced in the following section. Items discussed in this section:

13: Plotting New Mexico Department of Transportation has provided MicroStation plotting resource files for use in all NMDOT projects. These files allow the plotting from MicroStation to any standard printer that supports 11x17 printing. NMDOT has provided plotting resource files to enable its consultants and employees to provide standardized hard copies of the project plan sets. Items discussed in this section:

NMDOT Plotting Standards

AutoCAD STB Files

Section 13


NMDOT Plotting Standards All plotting resource files can be obtained by visiting the NMDOT website or calling the Engineering Automation Bureau. These files include print drivers which control the printing of color, gray-scale, and .pdf prints; and pen tables which control gray-scaling of existing features, priority, and text substitutions. Unless specifically stated in consultant contracts or requested by Internal Design, NMDOT standard print size is based on “11x17” paper. All borders are drawn to scale (see Section 5) based on “11x17.”

AutoCAD STB files NMDOT has determined AutoCAD plotting will use a named plot style table. Named plot style tables are files with an extension of .stb. STB files allow for lineweights to be determined either by layer or element, and not the color of the item. The NMDOT STB file has several values entered based on gray scaling (see Section 9) printing.

Figure 13.1: NMDOT_Standard STB settings

Section 13


The selection of the STB is done in the print dialog or in the page setup manager.

Section 15


14: Acceptable Delivery Formats The NMDOT has developed CADD Standards files for internal and consultant use. For the NMDOT design departments to complete projects initiated by the consultant community, it is necessary to specify the required deliverable expected by the NMDOT. Given the impact that the design environment brings to both internal and consultant design projects, this specification is critical to the accuracy and digital compatibility between parties. This section will briefly outline the requirements of the NMDOT for all consultants CADD deliverables. Items discussed in this section:

.DWG formats

Packaging

Section 15


.DWG formats NMDOT will only accept project deliveries in native DWG format. Translations are not acceptable, and the project data will be returned to the submitting consultant for correction. NMDOT will accept the following versions of files from consultants:

AutoCAD/Civil 3D Version 2018

File Extension .DWG Table 14.1: Acceptable file formats

Packaging NMDOT will accept CD/DVD’s containing project data in an uncompressed format. All submitted project data should be delivered to the Engineering Automation Bureau for analysis and should not be submitted to project engineers or techs.

All project data should be in the standard NMDOT project directory structure. All blank folders can be deleted prior to placing data on the CD/DVD. All non-CAD files should not be moved from the original directory to avoid breaking any dynamic linking with other files, including CAD files.

The use of the Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D electronic submittal is preferred. This tool is in the application pulldown>Publish>eTransmit.

Section 15


15: NMDOT Consultant Workspace The New Mexico Department of Transportation’s (NMDOT) corporate workspace offers NMDOT the opportunity to globally control the CAD environment while retaining necessary levels of personalized, departmental, and project specific settings. This environment gives management the tools to assist NMDOT’s designers and draftsmen by developing an easy to use environment which also controls accurate project settings within the CAD interface. Items discussed in this section.

Consultant Deliverable Workspace

Section 15


Consultant Deliverable Workspace The NMDOT has developed consultant workspaces for AutoCAD and MicroStation to be used by consulting firms producing design projects for the NMDOT. These workspaces are self-contained and “invokes” all necessary NMDOT CADD Standard Files for respective projects. These workspaces are “fully contained,” having the same functionality as the internal NMDOT CADD environment and is similar in operability. The NMDOT workspaces can be downloaded from the NMDOT CADD Standards website. A readme.txt file is included within each download to aid consulting firms in the use of NMDOT workspaces.

Section 16


16: Georeferenced Imaging New Mexico Department of Transportation has utilized raster images for several years. The images published prior to 2009 were a sole-source format of .cot, which was re-named as a .jpg. All images were geo-referenced with the information in a header embedded in the image itself. Raster imaging has undergone tremendous amounts of advances in recent years. Along with these advances, several image formats have become widely accepted in the civil engineering field. The NMDOT standard for raster imagery is the focus of this section. Items discussed in this section:

Imaging Standard

Compression

Section 16


Imaging Standard NMDOT has begun to integrate Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology in the design process. This new direction, has led to many changes to the method in which projects are created and delivered. The workflow for the creation of Geo-referenced images remains consistent with only the delivered file format changing.

NMDOT has set the standard for raster images as a Georeferenced Tiff (GeoTiff) file. The GeoTiff file has become the new standard for raster imaging due to the compatibility with ARC GIS software. All GeoTiffs will be delivered with the accompanying world file, projected in the State Plane Coordinate System and NAD 83.

NMDOT will also accept GeoTiffs including .JPG compression with all GeoReferencing in the header of the image. The basis for .JPG files must be a GeoTiff with a world file to be accepted as a final deliverable for any photogrammetric contracts.

Compression NMDOT has determined a critical need for image compression on all aerial photos submitted to the DOT. The .jpg compression is an industry standard for compressing orthos. NMDOT has adopted the use of .jpg compression. Any other types of compression will be rejected at the consultant’s expense.
