It has the following columns: - **Name**: Provides the default or user-created names of the Design Rule. - **Class**: Displays the ACP classification type impacted by the Design Rule. - **Type**: Shows the Design Rule type for which the design rule is applied. - **Scope**: Presents the region of the site where the Design Rule would be applied. - **Action**: Provides the ability to **Edit** or **Delete** the Design Rule. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image(210).png) ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/3db99144-2736-4654-a3ba-1aa2e78ddb2a/Images/Documentation/image-ADFQF78J.png)The displayed Design Rule settings will vary depending on the design rule type being created.

A collection of user-provided data in an ACP project, from which twelve optimal solutions are generated to evaluate and refine various design scenarios. Used to describe any action of bringing any externally-created data (Revit Model, Excel Schedules, etc.) into ACP. Short for the **Augmenta Construction Platform** The process by which ACP evaluates the imported inputs and active design rules to suggest the most optimal raceway routes. A step in the ACP workflow to verify and compare the Model Inputs, Schedule Inputs, and Design Rules for consistency to avoid errors in generating solutions. Used in studies to indicate source-destination pairings and describe the feeder which runs between the two. Its two components are Conduit Schedule and Feeder Schedule. An electrical pathway comprised of all of the parallel conduits running from a source to a destination. Identified by the Run ID in the Conduit Schedule. Any piece of Electrical Equipment or Electrical Fixture from which Conduit originates. Any piece of Electrical Equipment or Electrical Fixture the conduit routes to. A parameter in the Conduit Schedule which defines the specific power system the Raceway is associated with. It may also be used as a Scope to which Clearance and Raceway Height design rules may be applied. A unique identifier representing the Raceway between a specific source and destination defined by the user in the Conduit Schedule. Generally represents major electrical equipment, including power panels, switchgear, and transformers. Controls the size of the blocks (2", 3", 4", 6", or 12") into which ACP divides the Revit model for obstruction analysis. Includes all ACP-enabled electrical elements in the Revit project. Includes all elements within the Revit project which do not serve as electrical sources or destinations, but are instead used for collision avoidance and path planning. The main organizational unit in ACP where user-provided data for studies are imported, stored, and managed, and where routing solutions for the Raceway(s) are generated based on those studies. A designated space within ACP for organizations to store, manage, and work with their projects, files, and settings. Defines a specific configuration of a design rule type, which is applied to its associated Scope Indicates the types of supports that ACP may use when generating the conduit routing solution. ## Related - [Navigating the Studies table](/navigating-the-studies-table.md)
