Description of the design stage

Development of design documentation is carried out depending on the technical and technological complexity of the facility:

• One-stage (working draft) – for objects of complete overhaul, as well as for objects being constructed on the model and re-used projects.
• Two-stage (project, working documentation) – for objects of the, IV and V categories of complexity and for objects of the III category of complexity based on individual projects.
• Three-stage (pre-design proposal, project, working documentation) - for objects of the I, II categories of complexity, for objects of the III category of complexity based on individual projects, and for objects with insufficient initial list of licenses.
