January 18, 2013 304.4 Supplemental Description Guidelines ODOT allows users to provide supplemental description information by use of MicroStation’s File Properties. The intent of the supplemental description is to provide additional descriptive information to aid the designer in identifying a particular file. The following properties are available in a MicroStation Design File: Title, Subject, Client, Keywords, and Comments. For ODOT projects, the following properties shall be used for design files submitted to or exchanged with the Department: Title The Title property can be used to specify the file type description. If used, the description shall correspond to the file descriptions for each file type shown in Figure 304-1 File Name Type Codes, prefixed with the Discipline name (see the examples on the following page). Comments The Comments property can be used to provide additional descriptive information to aid the designer in identifying a particular file. Comments are user definable with the following guidelines: For Roadway design files the comment should start with the route name/number, where applicable, using the route name as follows: IR### Interstate route with three digit number, e.g. IR071 for Interstate route 71. US### United State route with three digit number, e.g. US033 for US route 33. SR### State route with three digit number, e.g. SR315 for State route 315. CR### County Road with three digit number, e.g. CR056 for County road 56. RAMP### Ramp with up to three character name/number, e.g. RAMP2S for ramp 2- S. Road name, e.g. Paris for Paris road. Note, directions (N, S, E, W) can be ROADNAME used on projects where plans exist for two different directions of the same roadway, e.g. Paris N for Paris road north. Following the route name/number, the Comment property can contain additional information to help identify the specific sheet of the plan. For Bridge design files, a brief description of the plan sheet contents should be included. 74 ODOT CADD Engineering Standards

Assigning properties in MicroStation. Select File > Properties to access the Properties dialog shown below. Select the Summary tab to assign the Title and Comments properties. 2. ODOT provides a Visual Basic application, ODOT_Files.mvba, to create files using the ODOT file naming conventions detailed in this manual. The program will automatically assign the Title property. A key-in field is provided to enter the comments for each file created by the program. See the ODOT CADD Standards website for more information. ODOT CADD Engineering Standards 75
