Preliminary Drawings

PRELIMINARY DRAWINGS are the initial plans for projects prepared by the designer or architects and engineers (A/E) firm during the early planning or promotional stage of the building development. They provide a means of communication between the designer and the user (customer). These drawings are NOT intended to be used for construction, but they are used for exploring design concepts, material selection, preliminary cost estimates, approval by the customer, and a basis for the preparation of finished working drawings.

You will notice that most of the design work incorporated into the preliminary drawings at the 35-percent stage of completion contain, as a minimum, the following information: site plans, architectural floor plans, elevations, building sections, preliminary finish schedule and furniture layouts, interior and exterior mechanical and electrical data, and civil and structural details. All of the preliminary project drawings scheduled for use by the SEABEEs are reviewed by the COMCBPAC or COMCBLANT, as appropriate, for construction methods or procedures, whereas preliminary contract drawings are reviewed by ROICC.

Final Drawings

FINAL DRAWINGS are 100 percent complete, signed by the contracting officer, and used forbidding purposes. This set of plans becomes official contract drawings once the contract is awarded. Final drawings are often revised to show changes made by a scope change or by a change order with the concurrence of both the contractor and contracting officer. At this stage of completion, no further functional input may be introduced into the final drawings because of time constraints. In general, final drawings, together with project specifications, cost estimates, and all of the calculations, comprise the final stages of design requirements.

Red-lined Drawings

These are the official contract drawings that you will mark up during construction to show as-built conditions. RED-LINED DRAWINGS are marked in color "red" to indicate either a minor design change or a field adjustment.

As-built Drawings

These are the original contract drawings (or sepia copies) that you will change to show the AS-BUILT conditions from the red-lined drawings. Upon completion of facilities, the construction contractor or the military construction force (NMCB) is required to provide the ROICC with as-built drawings indicating construction deviations from the contract drawings. All of the as-built marked-up prints must reflect exact as-built conditions and show all features of the project as constructed. After completion of the project, as-built marked-up prints are transmitted by the ROICC to the engineering field division (EFD).

Record Drawings

The original contract drawings, corrected according to the marked prints, provide a permanent record of as-built conditions upon completion of the instruction work on a project. The original RECORD DRAWINGS may be retained in the custody of the EFD or they may be transferred to stations with public works.

CONCEPTUAL DEFINITIVE DESIGNS

These are prepared designs or drawings defining various functional, engineering, and logistical requirements for structures and facilities needed on a repetitive basis. These drawings are intended to provide a uniform basis for planning and design. CONCEPTUAL DESIGNS commonly used in the Navy include both definitive and standard designs.
