Are you reading this Guide because you are part of a project team working with GSA? You may have been asked to review design drawings and provide input to ensure your agency gets the space that meets the needs and fulfills all the requirements provided to GSA at the beginning of either the lease process or your future move to or in Federal space. If this sounds familiar, or if you currently find yourself involved in a space alteration project, this Guide will help make the review process more understandable and easier to navigate. The Guide will acquaint you with the look and layout of Design Intent Drawings (DID). You'll find a Glossary of Terms at the end to help you with all the new terminology you may hear during the meetings and workshops. You can find what you need by using the PDF reader ‘find’ function, or you can fully read through the Guide to understand the overall process. Either way, using this reference ensures your voice will be heard during the drawing review process. In addition, the Guide contains two DID Checklists (Level 1 and Level 2) that you may download and print to help you keep track of all the reviewed information in an orderly manner and make notes for items that need further review and clarification. Background In the summer of 2014, GSA conducted a lessons learned meeting with two of our client agencies to find out what went well, did not go well, and in what areas GSA might improve upon in subsequent projects. One concern centered on the review of DID submittals by agency personnel. Many did not fully understand what needed to be reviewed. Often, their primary work functions fell outside of facilities management, space planning, or architecture/engineering disciplines and they felt like they were trying to understand a new language with visuals like hieroglyphics. To address this concern, GSA convened a diverse, cross-regional team to prepare a guide that project teams could use to help review basic and detailed DIDs. This document resulted from the team’s effort. For those with DID experience, some aspects of the Guide may be simplistic, but for others it will provide the first steps toward learning and understanding a new language, with examples and guidance to demystify common details found in DIDs (which may carry-over into architectural or engineering drawings). GSA will post this Guide on our regional and national website, creating a collaborative environment for comments, clarifications and improvements, to refine the Guide and make it a useful tool for our clients as they review Design Intent Drawings. Design Intent Drawing Review Guide | 1 Purpose and Benefits This Guide serves several purposes. Altering or acquiring space is a multi-step process, whether reconfiguring existing space, or acquiring new space. This Guide offers a comprehensive checklist or ‘road map’ to aid both tenant agencies and GSA personnel that review Design Intent Drawing sets during the space design phase of a project. The document: • Uses graphic examples and descriptive narratives to identify and describe key elements of a DID set, so the end-user may review DIDs and ensure the documents accurately reflect tenant requirements. • Defines, describes, and explains the content included in DIDs for leased and federal space alterations. • Provides a common language and expectation for the review process and outcome of a formal DID review, and establishes a checkpoint for missing items in a DID set. • Defines the differences between Level 1 and Level 2 DIDs by setting parameters for projects with different complexity levels, by illustrating what should or should not be included in each type of DID set. • Provides a list of the most commonly referenced codes and standards applicable to developing DIDs, and their respective website links. • Provides a Glossary of Terms that relate to Design Intent Drawings. The Guide will be useful for GSA customer agencies and GSA personnel whose experience, mission or normal course of work does not include reading design and construction drawings. Additionally, those familiar with the DID process may also benefit from the checklist's consistent format. Regions may determine which level of DID review is most appropriate for projects. How to Use this Guide During a DID review, this Guide should always be used in conjunction with the tenant agency’s design/construction requirements document (e.g. a Program of Requirements or Agency Specific Requirements).The Guide has been organized into Chapters so information may be easily located. Throughout the Guide, words or phrases shown in blue bold typeface signify additional information (e.g. definition, examples) may be found elsewhere in the Guide. Click on the bold word or phrase to take you directly to the additional information. The Guide begins by breaking down the Elements of content for both Level 1 and Level 2 DID sets using written descriptions with graphic examples of each drawing sheet and/or cross-references to an example elsewhere in the Guide. Element descriptions are lettered in bold type and indicated on the drawing sheet example(s) below the descriptions. Click on the link below each example for an enlarged view of the sheet. The designation of “Level 1” and “Level 2” for the two differing levels of content within DIDs has been established for the communication objective of this DID Review Guide, and are not an industry and/or governmental standard. Design Intent Drawing Review Guide | 2 DID Checklists for both Level 1 and Level 2 drawing sets are also provided to complement this information. GSA highly recommends reviewers fully read through the Guide before using the DID Checklists. Many references made on the Checklists are more fully explained in the Elements of a Design Intent Drawing Set section. Supplemental examples, schedules, and other helpful drawing references are also provided in the Guide, including an extensive DID Glossary of Terms. Design Intent Drawing Review Guide | 3 Note: while some Elements are commonly found in both Level 1 and Level 2 DID sets, there may be some differences in Element content between the two Levels. Content differences are noted within each Element description, if applicable, with graphic examples for both Levels then provided, where appropriate. For example, Cover Sheets for a Level 1 and a Level 2 DID set contain the same information, so one graphic example is provided to represent both Levels. Construction/Partition Plans for Level 1 and Level 2 , however, have a few differences, so graphic examples are provided for each one. Elements of Design Intent Drawing Set Introduction Design Intent Drawings (DID) serve as a critical means to communicate a tenant agency’s space requirements for constructing and assembling interior spaces, cabinetry/millwork, the placement of furniture and other details throughout the space. They are produced after a final floor plan layout (usually a Block Plan; sometimes a Test Fit) is approved by the tenant agency, but prior to the Construction Documents (CD) development phase (see a project Typical Space Alteration Process overview in Supplemental Examples and Schedules section of this Guide). DIDs are drawn-to-scale and, although there is no one way to produce them. DIDs do follow established GSA and architectural/design industry graphic standards and conventions, both in how drawing sets are constructed, and the content they provide. The information in DIDs expresses the foundation of design criteria that will be further developed and engineered during the CD phase. As referenced in this Guide, an ‘Element’ refers to design information organized and presented on an individual drawing sheet in uploads/Ingenierie_Lourd/ did-review-guide-final.pdf
