Full title and description

ISO 10303-504:2000 — Industrial automation systems and integration — Product data representation and exchange — Part 504: Application interpreted construct: Draughting annotation. This part defines an Application Interpreted Construct (AIC) for draughting annotation within the STEP (ISO 10303) family; the 2000 edition has been withdrawn and later revised by ISO 10303-504:2011.

Abstract

Specifies integrated resource constructs to represent draughting annotations (text and symbology) applied to drawing sheets, drawing views, individual annotation pieces, or draughting shape models for communicating product and drawing interpretation information. The 2000 edition defined these constructs as an AIC; a revised, shorter edition was published in 2011.

Scope

Defines the scope and content of an Application Interpreted Construct (AIC) that provides constructs and rules for draughting annotation within STEP-based data exchange. The scope covers how to use existing ISO 10303 integrated resources (geometry, representation and presentation resources) to supply text, symbol definition and placement for drawings and annotated models so that annotation semantics and presentation can be exchanged between systems.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition of draughting annotation constructs (annotation_occurrence, annotation_symbol, annotation_symbol_occurrence, annotation_text_occurrence, composite_text variants, text_literal variants, symbol_representation and mapping constructs).
• Use and reuse of integrated resources from ISO 10303 parts (geometry, representation and presentation schemas) rather than creating independent entity sets.
• Rules for applying text and symbology to drawing sheets, views, annotation pieces and draughting shape models so semantics and presentation map consistently between exchanging systems.
• Constraints and interfaces to ensure the AIC can be implemented within broader STEP Application Protocols (APs) and AP modules.

Key schema elements and the relationships to ISO 10303 integrated resources are provided in the AIC schema and supporting notes (see Annexes in the standard for schema diagrams and references).

Typical use and users

Used by CAD and PLM vendors, implementers of STEP Application Protocols, system integrators, technical drawing and drafting automation specialists, and organizations needing neutral exchange of drawing annotation semantics and presentation (for example engineering offices, manufacturers and archiving bodies). It is typically implemented as part of STEP-based data exchange workflows or AP implementations that require annotated drawings to be portable and machine-interpretable.

Related standards

Closely related to other ISO 10303 parts used by the AIC, notably ISO 10303-41 (measure schema), ISO 10303-42 (geometry schema), ISO 10303-43 (representation schema), ISO 10303-46 (presentation resources) and ISO 10303-101 (draughting element schema). The Part 504 AIC is part of the STEP family (ISO 10303) and was updated by ISO 10303-504:2011. See other AICs and AP modules in the 500–599 and 100–299 ranges for broader interoperability.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 10303-504:2000 is a part of the STEP family that defined an Application Interpreted Construct for draughting annotation (text and symbology) in product data exchange; the 2000 edition has been withdrawn and superseded by a 2011 edition.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the schema-level constructs and usage rules needed to represent drawing annotation (placement, text, symbols and related presentation) using existing ISO 10303 integrated resources so that annotations can be exchanged and interpreted by different systems.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: CAD and PLM software developers, implementers of STEP Application Protocols and modules, system integrators, and organizations that require neutral, machine-interpretable exchange of annotated drawings.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The 2000 edition is withdrawn. It was revised and reissued as ISO 10303-504:2011 (published) — the 2011 edition is the active/revised version of Part 504.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes. Part 504 is an AIC within the ISO 10303 (STEP) family. AICs and AP modules are organized in ranges within ISO 10303 (parts 500–599 are AICs; related APs and modules are in other ranges).

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Draughting annotation, AIC, STEP, annotation_symbol, annotation_text_occurrence, composite_text, symbol_representation, drawing view annotation.
