The phrase refers to readily available digital files containing pre-drawn, standardized symbols and layouts representing public restroom elements. These files are compatible with Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software and are intended for cost-free acquisition. An example includes a digital block depicting a toilet, sink, and grab bar arrangement available in .dwg or .dxf format from an online repository.
Accessing these digital resources streamlines the design and planning processes for architects, engineers, and interior designers. Utilizing these pre-designed components reduces drafting time, ensures adherence to accessibility standards, and promotes consistency across projects. Historically, such resources were less accessible, requiring manual creation of each element, resulting in increased project timelines and potential inconsistencies.
