ISO 13567

{{Short description|International standard}}

ISO 13567 is an international computer-aided design (CAD) layer standard.

Standard parts

The standard is divided into three parts:

;ISO 13567-1{{colon}}2017{{cite web|url=https://www.iso.org/standard/70181.html|title=ISO 13567-1:2017|publisher=International Organization for Standardization|access-date=2017-10-11}}

:Technical product documentation — Organization and naming of layers for CAD — Part 1: Overview and principles

;ISO 13567-2{{colon}}2017{{cite web|url=https://www.iso.org/standard/70182.html|title=ISO 13567-2:2017|publisher=International Organization for Standardization|access-date=2017-10-11}}

:Technical product documentation — Organization and naming of layers for CAD — Part 2: Concepts, format and codes used in construction documentation

;ISO/TR 13567-3{{colon}}1999 (withdrawn September 2015){{cite web|url=https://www.iso.org/standard/31415.html|title=ISO/TR 13567-3:1999|publisher=International Organization for Standardization|access-date=2017-10-11}}

:Technical product documentation — Organization and naming of layers for CAD — Part 3: Application of ISO 13567-1 and ISO 13567-2

Standard has been developed by Technical Committee TC 10 (Technical product documentation) Subcommittee SC 8 (Construction documentation); Refer. ICS: 01.110; 35.240.10.

=Special characters=

- (hyphenation)Used for all possible values of a specific character position. For no further subdivision use the hyphen character BE_EN_ISO_13567-2:2017 5.2 Coding Conventions

_ (underscore) Where a field is not being used or a decision has not been made

Applications

=Resulting length=

In practice, application of ISO 13567 fields can lead to short names (only mandatory fields), or much longer names (use of some or all optional fields in complex projects).
