Zusammenfassung:	A semiconductor integrated circuit and a pattern lay-outing method for the same are disclosed, which can suppress bending or partial drop-out of a dummy pattern even when a mechanical stress acts on the dummy pattern in CMP. The semiconductor integrated circuit includes predetermined functional areas and a dummy pattern formed in a space area. The space area is positioned between predetermined functional areas. The dummy pattern includes a first metal portion formed in the shape of a frame and defining an outer edge of the dummy pattern, a second metal portion positioned on an inner periphery side of the first metal portion and formed so as to be continuous with the first metal portion, and a plurality of non-forming areas positioned in an area where the second metal portion is not formed on the inner periphery side of the first metal portion.
