This is an upgrade for the electronic version of the architecture industry's standard reference. The CD-ROM allows fast access to essential standards with searches by word, building system, topic, special interest or traditional index. Drawing and design time can be saved by exporting illustrations directly into the user's CAD programme. About the CD: over 50 per cent of the illustrations are in vector format; there are web links to manufacturers' in formation directly from the AGS CD-ROM; the CD can export plans, reports and presentations to word processing and other software; the CD can print drawings, charts and diagrams for hard copy attachment to proposals, plans or reports.
