A question posted at the CSI forum recently (http://www.csinet.org/s_csi/sec_forums.asp?CID=11&DID=11&ForumID=6&TopicID=1093asked ) asked for recommendations of adding specifications on actual drawing sheets - I submitted the following response:
When drawings are formatted according the National CAD Standard (and why on earth wouldn't they be?), specifications can be located on sheet type designators 7 or 8 (user defined sheets); an example would be locating the specifications on the G (General) sheets such as G-701, G-702, G-703, etc.
Theoretically, the specs could meet NCS requirements if they were assigned to disciplines within the set - such as some of the following examples:
G-701 General Requirements
C-701 Site Clearing, Grading, Excavation, Fill
S-701 Cast-in-Place Concrete, Structural Steel, Steel Joists, Steel Decking
A-701 Thermal Insulation, Elastomeric Membrane Roofing, Painting and Coating
P-701 Plumbing Piping, Plumbing Fixtures
M-701 HVAC Ducts and Casings, Furnaces
E-701 Conduit, Boxes, Interior Lighting
If there is really a compelling reason to locate specs on the drawings, I would recommend locating all of them on the G sheets (such as G-701) instead of the sheets within the disciplines (C-701, S-701, etc) because they would all be located in the same place.
