After the initial Catalog database is created, you can use the Catalog task to define additional piping specifications and part data interactively in the Catalog task instead of defining your piping reference data in workbooks and then bulkloading the workbooks to the Catalog database.

If you have Intergraph Smart Materials, you can create piping specifications in Smart Materials, export them to Microsoft Excel workbooks, and then bulkload them into your catalog. See Intergraph Smart Materials Help.

Understanding how the piping reference data works is essential to effective use of the software. For example, when you route pipe, nearly everything you see on a Properties Dialog comes from reference data. While you route pipe, you are also constrained by piping specification rules in reference data. In addition, you need to read and understand the concepts and procedures about Select Lists.

Piping Workbooks

The piping reference data is defined in multiple Microsoft Excel workbooks so that you can bulkload only what you need. The software delivers these workbooks to the [Product Folder]\CatalogData\Bulkload\Datafiles folder. The complete list of available piping specifications delivered with the software is in Appendix: Delivered Pipe Specifications.

The following piping reference data workbooks are delivered in [Product Folder]\CatalogData\Bulkload\Datafiles folder:

Piping Specification.xls
Piping Catalog.xls
Piping Specialty Data.xls
Piping.xls
Instrument Data.xls
On-the-fly Instruments.xls
On-the-fly Piping Specialties.xls
Ten_Specs_CatalogData.xls
Ten_Specs_SpecificationData.xls

Additional piping reference data workbooks are available on the Customer Support web site.

Because bulkloading all of these specifications would create a very large catalog, a subset of ten specifications is used to create the catalogdb.dat file that is delivered with the software. This subset of ten specifications is delivered in the Ten_Specs_SpecificationData.xls and Ten_Specs_CatalogData.xls workbooks and is listed below.
