CADISON Pipe Support Modeler

CADISON® Pipe Support Modeler Pipe Support Modeler assists the user to create and edit the secondary supports in an easy and intelligent manner. Assistant Secondary Support features enable the user to create multiple and different types of supports from predefined supports. A user-friendly GUI provides flexibility by allowing the user to create variations in predefined type of supports during the data entry stage for e.g. offset, orientation and industry validations. Supports created using ‘Create Support’ wizard are both constructible and erectable.

? Introduced new CADISON object type for secondary

support assembly. ? Seamlessly integrated into 3D Designer workflow, can be

used for Cable trays and Ducting supports as well. ? Use of MATPIPE catalog for structural profiles. ? Auto linking to standard supports helps in ease of

indication in isometric drawings.

Profile Orientation Inbuilt intelligence in profile orientation options provides flexibility to create multiple types of supports by changing the orientation of horizontal and vertical members. It also validates the combination of profile orientation based on the support & profile type selected in the GUI.

? Eliminate need of using X-ref AutoCAD drawings & manual

work in tracking, linking to standard supports. ? Multiply productivity with save and load configuration feature to replicate supports, edit feature to modify existing support. ? Customized reporting and tagging feature can be used on secondary supports in CADISON® Project module. ? Can select different profiles for horizontal, vertical members. Can select orientation to suite requirement. ? Option to create support with or without base plate, user can select the base plate from available catalogs in MATPIPE. ? Intelligent design validation in GUI avoids creation of irregular / invalid supports. Support Types The user can select type of support from various predefined types available. Based on selection of type of support, corresponding illustrative image are displayed on the dialog. This enables user to visualize the support created and enter the required dimensions accurately.

Offset feature enables users to shift horizontal profile to support welding and additional flexibility to position horizontal member to suite various position requirements. An intelligent GUI validates and enables valid orientations of horizontal and vertical profiles as per the selected support & profile type for horizontal, vertical members. Insertion Points Additional insertion points at structure level provide better placement and alignment in 3D environment. These are consistent irrespective of type of profile used as they are implemented at support level and easy to align with pipe/foundation/support surface etc. Edit Secondary Support feature will honor the insertion point selected by user at the time of placement and recreate the structure as per updated parameters to save time in updating the existing structure to revise as per the revised parameters entered in wizard.

Secondary Supports to avoid potential interference with other plant objects ? BOM specific to plant area ? BOM based on type of supports ? BOM based on profile types Edit Secondary Support This feature enables the user to modify the existing support in an easy manner. The edit feature recognizes the support created using create support wizard. It will fetch the parameters entered at the time of creation of support. Edit feature will honor the insertion point selected by user at the time of placement and recreate the structure as per updated parameters. User can also add/remove base plate from existing support. Apart from maintaining backward compatibility, the Edit Secondary Support feature enables the user to select the structure created in previous versions to recreate as per the additional validations incorporated in the latest version. Report Generation ? Report generation feature of CADISON can be used to generate list of supports at project level, in drawings etc. ? BOM of individual support or selected supports with in drawing can be generated. ? All reports can be stored in the CADISON document management with an active revision management system. ? Facility to create reports in background allows generating reports without interrupting design process. ? Supports MS Word, Excel & PDF, generate multilingual reports (English, German). Hookup drawing Hookup drawing feature enables the user to create automatic production drawings of selected type of support/s. The user can create hookup drawing for selected secondary support as well as multiple supports of a specific type. Each type of support has specific drawing template with predefined typical to represent dimensions. There is a provision to revise or replace typical to be displayed in hookup drawing to suite organization needs and increase adaptability for changing requirements of projects. Number of columns and rows in hookup drawing table can be configured in drawing templates. User can rearrange or decide the number of columns of table as per organization needs.
