Overview[edit]

load PDF Whilst we consider preparing our own set of STEP LID drawings, we are providing a quick reference list to drawing files from other Ontario and/or Canada-based sources.

If you want help in finding example details for an LID design, please email the Wiki Guide email account or use the comment box below.

You know that typical drawings are no substitute for properly configured design!
