CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS AGENDA  INTRODUCTION  BASIC NOTIONS  CDD FEATURES  DEMONSTRATION  QUESTIONS / ANSWERS

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS INTRODUCTION 1 SOME GENERAL ISSUES  Are made at CERN and in worldwide design offices  Must be stored and easily accessible  Must be managed according to various schemes

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS INTRODUCTION 2 WHAT IS CDD ?  Oracle based application  Stores plot files & drawing meta-information  Supports various CAD tools  Different drawing numbering systems  Different management rules  In production since may 1996  More than registered drawings CDD  CERN Drawing Directory Drawing management tool

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS INTRODUCTION 3 INTERFACE & FILES  A limited interface exists using Oracle Forms  Main interface is  HPGL format used for drawing plot files

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS NUMBERING SCHEMES BASIC NOTIONS 1 Drawings are numbered following conventions  Drawing system notion  CDD supports several drawing systems :  EST/LHC : 12 charLHCXDEMA0001  LHC Exp : 12 charATLXELMX0001  SL-PO : 12 charLHCEBD__2000  ST-CV : 12 charLHCW  ST-CE : 16 charLHC-BIS  Old SPS & LEP systems are still available

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS ACCESS MANAGEMENT BASIC NOTIONS 2 Drawing access (registration, update, control) must be managed  Drawing subject notion  Example (EST/LHC drawing system) : + EquipmentProject = Subject L HC X D E MA L HCX D E MA Group a User a.1 User a.2 User a.3 Group b User b.1 User b.2 ACCESSNO ACCESS Subject access is granted by groups of users and managed by system administrators note

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS DRAWING NUMBER DRAWING NUMBER BASIC NOTIONS 3 Each drawing must have a unique and public number  CDD provides the drawing number  Example (EST/LHC numbering scheme) : Subject + Sequence Number L HCX D E MA LHCXDEMA0001

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS DRAWING REVISION DRAWING REVISION BASIC NOTIONS 4 The evolution of a drawing must be managed and controlled  CDD handles drawing versions  Each version has got a revision index  The history of the drawing is kept

CERN Drawing Directory - CDD - CERN EST/ISS QUALITY CONTROL QUALITY CONTROL BASIC NOTIONS 5 Each version must be controlled before being archived  Various control rules are implemented : + Approval process only one signature (designer allowed) design office responsible (but the designer) project engineer Lowest levelHighest level Rules are managed by system administrators note
