Art/Literary - Architecture / Book on design in architecture | | Italian term or phrase: capitolato figurato a oggetti | This is the immediate context:
"Il capitolato deve essere componente inscindibile di un'unica fase progettuale (rappresentata dall'insieme di particolari esecutivi e costruttivi che definiscono in ogni parte l'oggetto da costruire mediante il disegno di tutti i componenti) e deve assumere la veste di un **capitolato figurato a oggetti** (6). Quest'ultimo, indicato con l'acronimo **CFO**, rappresenta la risposta più evoluta per la definizione di tutte le opere, senza che possa verificarsi il pericolo di false interpretazioni. E' opportuno che gli stessi disegni riportino, per ciascun elemento tecnologico, l'indicazione della codifica di capitolato e che questa stessa compaia nelle voci di computo metrico, là dove ogni quantità è indicata locale per locale, secondo un criterio di univoca individuazione."
6) Cfr. Antonio Canalini, “Il Libro del capitolato”, Flaccovio, Palermo, 2003.
Does this have an equivalent in English or is it home grown in Italy (unique to Italy) and waiting for a translator to coin a term for it in English? |

it's just a try to "coin" the term Jim.
Il capitolato si ottiene direttamente dai disegni.

Thank you indeed Jim.
It's great to have the author's explanation 'cause the "coined" italian term was "meaningless". |

| Grading comment Thank you Grace. I talked to the Author's assistant. He said "figurato" just meant "disegnato" so I went for "drawn object specification". It just means a drawing to accompany a written spec in a building contract.
