Development Authority is introducing a new and enhanced system for the submission of project
drawings.
From 21" February 2016, we request that all registered consultants and contractors submit
project drawings related to Buildings, Fit Out and Infrastructure on CD format to DDA Development

archiving.
Please note that the digital document specifications for CD submission are as follows:
§ Drawings should be Al size, in DWF format, and in black and white/ monochrome, except for
perspectives, shaded area diagrams, and design revisions (for which the proposed changes
need to be highlighted by clouding)
§ Drawings to be arranged sequentially and in separate folders relating to each discipline,
with each folder and its contents following a clear naming structure, as follows:
o Folder naming: 'Arch' for Architecture; 'Struc' for Structural; 'Mech' for
Mechanical; 'Elec' for Electrical; and 'Infra' for Infrastructure.
o Document naming: Discipline, Sheet Number, and Drawing Title
o e.g. 'Arch-l_Setting out plan', 'Struc-l_General arrangement'
o For CD labelling, please refer to our previous Clrcular-164, as per the attached

When the review is completed, DDA will convert the approved drawings to PDF format, apply a
digital stamp and issue without signature in CD format. The CD can then be collected from our
Customer Service desk, which is located on the First Floor, Building 2, Dubai Studio City. For a
