PWGSC National CADD Standard
5.0 Annex A - CADD Layers
Civil Engineering, Site Design and Landscape Architecture
Table Summary
The Standard Layer List below lists the most-used layer names for the Civil Engineering, Site Design and Landscape Architecture discipline defined under the PWGSC Layering Standard. New layer names can always be created using the field abbreviations and extensions listed in Annex B Layer Field Descriptions. The French abbreviations are listed just as a reference and should only be used on drawings annotated in French.
