Geometry and Reliability Definitions

Geometry Definitions

Geometry Description
Symbolic Geometry displaying the existence of a system or element - may simply be 2D linework, a symbol, or a massing volume.
Generic Geometry identifiable as a placeholder representing the rough shape and object’s general magnitude.
Detailed Elements Geometric extents and shapes necessary to ensure that later modeled components will fit around and within the space available, integrated with major nearby or attached elements.
Fabrication Components Geometry with sufficient detail to directly fabricate and install from.

Reliability Definitions

Reliability Description
Preliminary Details and information about geometry, properties, and function are preliminary. All assumptions made from the geometry will require additional verification.
Proposed Details and information about geometry, properties, and function have been considered but not coordinated. Shape, size, location, orientation, quantity, functionality, and behavior can be derived from the model; however, they may be subject to refinement.
Coordinated Details and information about geometry, properties, and function are properly defined and coordinated with other disciplines. Shape, size, location, orientation, quantity, and detail can be directly measured from the model for construction.
As-Built Verified/validated elements and components measured/represented to Level Of Accuracy (LOA 10 through 50).
