It is strongly recommended that the register be
prepared at the beginning of the working drawing
programme, immediately the approximate list of
required drawings has been identified. Its sequence of
entries, therefore, will be similar to that of the
hypothetical list of drawings and schedules given in
Tables V and VI; that is to say, it will be divided into
general arrangement, assembly, component and
schedule categories, and a single sheet will be given to


each CI/SfB element used. In consequence, there will
be a relatively large number of sheets in the register,
but the advantage will be that the bones of the drawing
structure are laid out for all to see, in strict numerical
sequence, and that if subsequently the need for a
fresh drawing is identified (and the initial identification
is unlikely to be accurate to within 5 per cent) then it
may be entered without disruption either of the
drawing numbering sequence or of the register’s own
page order.

Within this framework the make-up of the individual
register sheet may vary, but the information it should
