Production Information

Many architects seem unaware that the industry 'bible' - Production Information : a code of procedure for the construction industry - is available free from the Construction Project Information Committee website at
[this link] as well as in hard copy (available from the RIBA Bookshop).

Sections considered of particular importance include:

• 2.2 Attributes of good quality production drawings - see [this link] - includes information on: drawing types and their content; annotation of drawings; sheet sizes and scales; drawing numbers and titles.
• 4.1 Structuring for ease of use -see [this link] - more information on the annotation of drawings is provided in [Section 4.1.5], particularly the preparation of a Specification Reference List as shown in Figure 4.6. We recommend that this list should be compiled from, and exactly match, the clause numbers/titles of the relevant specification (e.g. NBS) clauses - this is not made entirely clear on the CPI webpage.
