1. Responsibilities of CAD–Team

The CAD-Team is responsible for setting up the initial surface model and implementing changes to it if
necessary.

Furthermore, the CAD-Team will ensure that the read-only shared folder (AVDCADTeam) is updated with the
latest files once a week.

The CAD-Team will assist the group in integrating the different components of the aircraft.

Finally the CAD-Team will set up guidelines for modeling, integration and CAD-configuration.

4. Axis System

The axis system established for the V-10 aircraft in CATIA can be seen in Figure 2.

Figure 2: Axis System

The origin of the axis system is located at the nose tip of the aircraft and the centreline of the fuselage as shown in
Figure 2. This axis system has to be used to design and locate the components in CATIA.
5. Dimensions and Scale

The 3D-Model shall be designed to full scale. Dimensions shall be in millimetres.

6. Colour Coding

7. Part Numbering

In order to prevent inconsistencies and data loss in the global assembly, the CATIA files names should never be
changed.

Every designer is responsible for creating their individual parts and at least one assembly. The following naming
conventions shall be used:
7.1 CADPart numbering

“V10-XXXXX-XXX-XXXXXX.CATPart”

XXXXX Individual assigned GDP Task (exact wording according to List)

XXX Iteration starting with 001
XXXXXX Individual Part number – unlimited digits, free to chose numbering/naming

Example: Rib for Outer Fwd Wing in Composite

V10-Fwd_Wing_Outer(C)-001-Rib01.CATPart

7.2 Sub assemblies numbering

“V10-XXXXX-XXX-XXXXXX.CATProduct”

XXXXX Individual assigned GDP Task (exact wording according to List)

XXX Iteration starting with 001
XXXXXX Individual Part number – unlimited digits, free to chose numbering/naming

Example: All Ribs for Outer Fwd Wing in Composite

V10-Fwd_Wing_Outer(C)-001-Rib01.CATProduct

7.3 Top assembly numbering

“V10-XXXXX-XXX.CATProduct”

XXXXX Individual assigned GDP Task (exact wording according to List)

XXX Iteration starting with 001

Example: Top Assembly for Outer Fwd Wing in Composite

V10-Fwd_Wing_Outer(C)-001.CATProduct
