NCS is a term frequently used by professionals involved in researching and implementing BIM. It stands for the American CAD standard.
This American CAD standard is the only comprehensive and fully developed set of guidelines applied across the design, construction, and facility management industries. Its main goal is to promote the widespread adoption of CAD standards throughout the design, construction, and operational stages of the construction sector. By doing so, it establishes a common language that streamlines design and drafting workflows.
Adopting CAD standards in the United States helps organizations minimize unnecessary expenses related to maintaining internal standards, training new employees, and coordinating teamwork.
Additionally, 2D standards are essential in facilitating the transition to BIM software systems and object-based 3D standards.
