AS/NZS 1100.501:2002

Sets out requirements and recommendations for structural engineering drawings to obtain common practice for the representation of structures and components, including reinforced and prestressed concrete, structural steel, timber and masonry. The methods form a basis for more detailed rules for specific applications. It adds to the requirements of AS1100.101, Technical drawing, Part101: General principles.

This Standard sets out requirements and recommendation for structural engineering drawing practice and is complementary to AS 1100.101. This Standard deals with the presentation of information.The types of structures intended to be dealt with by this Standard are generally those covered by structural design and construction Standards and codes, particularly the following:AS1720 Timber Structures Code2327 Composite structures2327.1 Part 1: Simply supported beams3600 Concrete structures3700 Masonry structures3990 Mechanical equipment—Steelwork4100 Steel structuresAS/NZS1148 Timber—Nomenclature—Australian, New Zealand and imported species1664 Aluminium structures4600 Steel structuresNZS3101 Concrete Structures Standard3404 Steel Structures Standard3603 Timber Structures Standard4230 Code of practice for the design of masonry structures AUSTROADS Bridge Design CodeNOTE: For cold-formed steel structures, stainless steel structures and aluminium structures, the pictorial representation is similar to general structural steelwork drafting.
