Ducting Tab (see ) / Electrical Tab / Piping Tab / Structural Tab >
Select equipment part class objects from the Catalog database, and position those objects in the model.
The software's designed equipment component modeling capabilities allow you to build an equipment definition by combining basic shapes, ports (nozzle, foundation, electrical, and so forth) and properties defined in the reference data. Designed equipment objects can be built entirely out of primitive geometric shapes, designed equipment components, or an existing equipment component part can be placed from the catalog to enhance the designed equipment object.
After you place the design equipment, you can position it precisely relative to other parts, structural features in the model, or grid systems. You can also define additional positioning relationships.
The design equipment definition in the Catalog consists of the part class information for the equipment and a set of descriptive properties. The model geometry contains only the coordinate system. You can then modify the base design equipment definition by adding equipment components, shapes, and nozzles.
-
You can show or hide nozzles independently of the parent equipment.
-
You can apply styles to nozzles in the same way as any other object.
