Code

Three-digit number in the file name of a DDS-CAD model. The code determines the function of the model and regulates the internal structure of the project.

Within the interval 000-999 number ranges are reserved for various purposes. DDS-CAD assigns specific tasks to the model using the code and also provides the required user interface with the right functions.

Number range Function of the model
000…099 For modelling storeys in each discipline. The user interface contains specific functions of each discipline and the building model so you can create a building with up to 100 storeys.
100…498 For creating specific detail and miscellaneous drawings. You can only use the specific function of the selected discipline.
499 For the consolidation of all storeys of the building model.
500…899 The number range only has a meaning in electrical and is used for the distribution board documentation. In each model you can display the internal layout of a distribution board. The user interface includes functions to manage and structure different sheets.
900…999 For creating diagrams of all kinds (e.g. string diagram, system diagram, etc.). You can use diagram symbols of all disciplines in a single user interface and combine them together.
