Figure 2-4. Design Documents Development

This figure is a graphical representation of concepts described in the surrounding text in this section.
This figure illustrates the relationship between the system description document and the design analysis, as described in the Monitored Geologic Repository Project Description Document (Curry 2001). There is a somewhat parallel development of these two activities, with Section 1 of the System Description Document dictating design requirements to the design analysis. Once the design analysis is completed, the results are rolled into Section 2 of the System Description Document as a design description and requirements compliance section. At the end of the process, the System Description Document contains a complete set of design information for its system. SDD = System Description Document.
