This part of BS8541 gives recommendations for defining format and content for library objects to support project briefing, design, tendering, construction and management of built assets.

NOTE1 A library object is intended for re-use within project teams and across organizations. This improves accuracy and buildability of designs, and improves the handover of information to the procurement chain and to the owner/operator.

It is intended for all professionals and service providers using generic and product specific data.

NOTE2 This group includes product manufacturers, architects, engineers, contractors, owner occupiers, maintainers and commissioners.

It gives recommendations for defining library template objects, generic objects and product objects in data-driven library and design processes.

Where the adoption of data-driven design is partial or incomplete, this British Standard gives recommendations for best practice. Where a particular project is formally committed to integrated working, this British Standard may be adopted as a requirement.
