Where is this leading to? The actual physical construction
of a psub or the full conceptual development of a psub down to
working drawings, details, materials list...etc., short of building it?
The drafting alone are seperate processes, ie., electrical,
hydraulics, hvac/piping, propulsion...etc. that must be all
coordinated and tied into a construction document. I assume
the standard will be metric. What standard symbols and notations
will we use? I assume an international standard here, too?
If we use a CAD package then it would behoove us to agree to
use the same one and a layering and labelling scheme to
follow.
