Table 1

Definition of levels of development (LOD) in a building design process [12, 13].

LevelBrief descriptionDefinition

LOD 100Conceptual designVague information consisting of nongeometric data or line work, areas, volumes, zones, and so forth

LOD 200Schematic designGeneric elements shown in three dimensions

LOD 300Detailed designSpecific elements with object geometry (dimensions, capacities, and connections)

LOD 400ConstructionShop drawing/fabrication

LOD 500As-built (actual)The project as it has been constructed. The model and associated data is suitable for maintenance and operations of the facility
