Why to create a 3D-Model ? - Just create ONE 3D-model and use it in SEVERAL tasks • Drawings (Lay Out, Sections,…) • Calculations (quantity, process calculations,…) • Isometric-drawings (prefabrication, pipe racks, bending machines,..) • Visual reports (maintenance, project meetings,…) • etc… - Stretch your imagination !!!

- + It takes about same time to create a 3D-model than 2D-drawing - - Administrating 3D-Software is more difficult than in 2D-Designing

Why 3D-Design ? - Improve the quality of engineering and cut down the error rate... • E.g. collision control, specifications - ...with less time • E.g. Less documents are needed, Design Tools... - Distributed design (Several designers can build one 3D-model) - Etc…

What are differences between 2D and 3D-design -

Creating Model Model as Database Documents are identical Material data in the Model Dimensions in the Model

-

Creating Documents All data in the Documents Documents independent Materials in material documents Dimensions in some documents

Modeling

Production of Documents

One modification in the model. Easy to control

Modification to many documents. Laborious to control 7

CREATE WORKSPACE IN PROJECT Navigate to the project

Create Workspace

Workspace will be created with the Windows Login name. Arrow after workspace name indicates link to the workspace location, in this example C:\CadPro\Training

Configure OpenGL Visual

- Requires OpenGL support from hardware - Double buffer YES always on • With value NO works slowly and poorly - HW accelerated YES always if possible, if not, try with lower resolution of screen. - Buffers at least, what ”Search Visual” gives • Higher values can be tested (max. 32) - If message of incorrect values appears, remove ”Test” marks and click ”Search Visual”. Then you get suitable values for your hardware. 2

VISUALIZER / OpenGL CONFIGURATION => Options => User Settings => Visualization => Configure OpenGL Visualizer •Create as on-demand basis creates a shaded object when the object is first time used by views. •Check memory limit before creating. Limits usage of physical memory of shaded views. Use limits if you have problems with shaded views or with walkaround. Use smaller value than you have physical memory (CPU) installed into computer "Default Transparency" allows you to define the transparency value used with objects marked as transparent but that are using opaque surface material. An opaque surface material has the alpha component (fourth) set to 1.0 in its colors. To make these objects transparent the visualizer temporarily replaces this alpha value with value (1 - transparency/100). Occlusion Test, Visibility of a Point To determine if some point P is visible, we shoot a ray from the cyclopean origin O (on and near the fish's mouth) to P (see Fig. ). First, if and the angle between the ray and the fish's x-axis is less than 150 degrees then P is within the view volume. Second, to examine if P is occluded, we test if the ray intersects other objects (fishes or static obstacles) in the fish's view volume.

NAVIGATION - Navigating means moving your cursor in 3D-model - Navigating is done by moving mouse, arrow buttons or by navigating commands - It is possible use several navigate commands sequentially before accepting the cursor location 1.st navigation to object vertex point

2.nd navigation 250mm to x direction

7

3.rd navigation 150mm to 135° direction and now cursor location is OK so navigation is accepted

Define pipelines - Pipes are routed according Systems. First when routing a Pipe, you pick up the right system then you choose the right pipeline from this system.

- Give pipelines name and choose specification(s) for it. Add required attribute information.

Specifications - Piping Specification or Pipe Class is rule, which defines what type of pipes, flanges, bends, branches, valves, etc. are allowed to use. - Meaning of this is, that when routing a pipe, after you picked right system and pipeline, you automatically have right type of piping parts and standard components in use. - Specifications are managed by NC-PIPING administrators

Using eBrowser Navigation Hold down the left mouse button to move around in the model. You can walk forward or backwards by moving the mouse cursor up or down, respectively. Turn by moving the mouse cursor left or right. It is possible to move forward or backward and turn at the same time. The cursor's distance from the center of the browser window controls the speed of movement. There are two special modes: panning and turning. Panning Moving the mouse cursor has different effects when the Shift button is being hold down. In this mode, the viewer moves in the direction of the mouse cursor. This means that you can only move in the plane that is perpendicular to the view direction. Turning The modes described above do not allow you to look up or down. To do that, you must hold down the Ctrl (Control) key. In this mode, the viewer turns in the direction of the mouse cursor.

TIPS & TRICKS - Use associative annotations - Define 2D startup files so, that there is no need to change defaults. If need to use e.g. several text sizes then fix text size in the symbol definition. - Object data and coordinates are easily available, never write this kind of information manually - Automatic annotations sometimes handy e.g. equipment and valve positions, pipe end fills and insulation symbols - Do not draw frame lines or module lines manually

ASSOCIATIVE ANNOTATIONS - Changing settings can be done from drawings menu:

- If annotations are placed as ”associate”, they remain so, even if you disable associatively. Change setting will affect only in new annotations. - Be careful with imported items (e.g. from AutoCAD) if associative annotations are used.

REVISION CONTROL – TO BE REMEMBERED - Cut pipe/duct, Insert Flange Set, Insert into line • object is divided to two pieces • one end is modified another one is new object - “Status colors” are status colors related to previous revision as long as “Save Revision” is used - Status colors are not fixed – nearest color from the active color palette is used. Recommended to define required colors to the shared color palette. - Possibility to combine query based settings with static set, but in this case static set must be re-defined for each revision

PLOTTING AND EXPORTING PLANT MODELER DRAWING BEFORE THE FIRST DRAWING HAS EVEN BEEN STARTED, SHEETS, DRAWING HEADER ATTRIBUTES, LINETATTRIBUTESTYLES AND LAYERS & LAYERSTYLES MUST HAVE BEEN CREATED BY SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR. A designer must have been provided information about which one of the configuration files should be used with which type of document. 1. Start Up-files. These will give the default values for Annotations, which color, which dxf-layer, line-thickness, etc. Has great effect on how the annotations will appear on paper or in exported dxf or dwg. When start annotating, be sure to pick correct startup-file. 2. Line Attribute Styles. These files will set the 2d properties for 3d-objects. Which type of line and with which Line thickness will different 3d-objects be drawn to paper or exported document. 3d objects can be divided to have different Line-properties according what ever properties they have in model, database, etc. Before plotting choose the correct Line Attribute Style for views in drawing. 3. Layers & layer styles. In Layer style is defined which 3d-object in dwg goes to which layer when dwg is exported to dxf/dwg. Before that must all needed layers been defined by system administrator. Layer styles are defined inside Line attribute styles, so designer doesn’t have to choose layer style, it should be correct when correct Line Attribute Style is chosen. 1
