Richard BealeThank you cj.abhijit and Jop. This confirms for me what I was thinking. It’s been many years since I worked on a project with a site plan, and I wasn’t turning up much with a Google search. Specifically, the conversation I had was surrounding as-builting the plot plans in existing facilities. I am of the belief that we should be maintaining up to date plot plans, whereas others believe an up to date site drawing is sufficient. The site drawing that they’re referring to is actually a survey drawing that shows roads, buildings, tankage, etc., and other features such as camps, but does not include equipment tag numbers, nor any equipment inside the buildings.
My argument is that nobody refers to a survey drawing for new project development, and everybody revises the existing plot plan. Currently we have multiple CAD files of the original plot plan, each reflecting a different project and I’m pushing to have them combined into one updated drawing.
