NBS Level of Detail Illustrations

Ss_55_15 to Ss_65_80 – Storage tanks to Air conditioning
This guide contains Level of Detail (LOD) illustrations for selected classifications from Ss_55_15 to Ss_65_80 of the Uniclass system. These were originally
published as a project delivery for the Innovate UK funded BIM Toolkit project and were developed by NBS, BDP and Mott MacDonald for reference on Level
2 BIM projects.
For guidance on the use of these LOD illustrations please see the following pages on the NBS website:
