Worldwide advantages...novice or expert!
The STS adheres to industry standards for architectural
documentation including efficient use of the AIA Layer
Guidelines, sheet sizes (including margins, title-blocks,
cell divisions), file and sheet naming conventions
recommended by the National CAD Standard (NCS) and Uniform
Drawing System (UDS) developed by the Construction
Specifiers Institute.
The National CAD Standard was developed in the U.S. but is
not U.S. specific. In fact, there are many non-U.S. users
of the STS. The techniques, organizational methods, tools
and objects used are applicable to any ArchiCAD user
anywhere in the world whether a novice or experienced user.
The STS only needs too save you at least one hour in the
preocess of streamlining your CAD process and it will pay
for itself.
When your models and documents are based upon industry
standards you have the advantage over your competitors.
Your electronic data is consistent, compatible and easily
interpreted by your consultants, clients, contractors and
city or state plan reviewers. Likewise with your printed
documents.
Get Standardized! If your existing CAD standards
were invented in-house or were assembled piecemeal from
outside sources, if you are not implementing CAD standards
in your office, or if you desire greater compatibility with
less problematic document exchanges you need the
STS!
