AVEVA E3D allows you to create structural elements according to the following hierarchy model: Section and plates FRMW GENSEC 1,PANE1,SCTN2,GWALL,FLOOR,SCREED Walls and floors CFLOOR CSCREE CWALL FLOOR SCREED STWALLHANDRA STRFLT RLADDR
SECTIONS
Section Storage
The elements created via the Section discipline can be prioritized in two ways: In automatic via Grid Storage In manual via Manual StorageGrid Storage Structure: The sections will be automatically prioritized in a structure that will be created in relation to The associated "Grid" Storage Area (Frmw or Sbfr): Sections will be automatically prioritized in a framework or SubFRamework that will be created in relation to the associated "Grid" The elements created via the Section discipline can be prioritized in two ways: In automatic via Grid Storage In manual via Manual Storage Manual storage Structure: The sections will beStored in a Structure that will have been created manually by the user Storage Area (Frmw or Sbfr): The sections will be stored in a Framework or Sub-framework that has been Created manually by the user The Lock allows you to lock orNot the framework or Sub-Framework
SECTIONS
Specification
Specific menu: Selection of the classDefault selection of materials Selection of the justification Selection of the specification Selection of the type Selection of the profile Use of the current profile by default Profiles: Defined by 2 points and a specification modifiable at any time, the profiles have specific attachment points and Plines that are the edges of the profiles.
SECTIONS
Fitting
Allows you to create an assembly element (fitting). It can be used to represent any element that is attached to the structure but is not an integral part of it.Create > Fitting Step 1: Click to identify the section where the fitting will be placed Step 2: Select the specification and fitting Step 3: Graphically indicate the Pline where the fitting will be positioned Step 4: Move the fitting to the positionN desired on the previously selected pline
Modification of a profile
Bracing gaps
Once the bracing has been created, it is possible to adjust the interval (Gaps) between the bracing and a reference element.Modify after Gaps Step 1 - Selection of the GENSEC composing the bracing (Yellow elements) Step 2 - Selection of the reference elements ( Cyan Elements) Step 3 - Modification of the Gap Gap: Distance between reference element and an element of the bracing The diDifferent bracing configurations: Diagonal Bracing Knee Bracing Cross Bracing Diamond Bracing K Bracing • Extend: Allows you to change the length of a Gensec in relation to a plan or panel. • Mitre Ends: Allows you to make a cut of the extremesIrons so that they are parallel to the bisector angle. • Daughter: Allows you to merge two irons to create a circular section • Merge: Allows you to make iron melts • Split: Allows you to make iron cuts in relation to an element• Splice: Allows you to make iron cuts compared to a plan • Fitting: Allows you to modify fitting specifications
Nodes and connections
Type of Knots
The creation of perm nodesAnd the connection of the elements between them. The installation of these connections makes it possible to quickly modify a frame, model the fasteners between irons and use some Design features. -Node for fixing with the GC (ENDATUM > FIXING)-Node for fixing metal frame / profile (JLDATU > PLDATU > FIXING)
Nodes and connections
Type of Knots
• Fixing knot with the GC Selection of the End DATUM tool then selection of the END of a structural iron• Metal frame fixing knot profile Use the Connect tool then select the main iron, then the secondary section(s) to connect, then Esc then Complete the action
Nodes and connections
Representation of joints
Once the connections have been made, it is possible to show the type of fixation/preparation of the profiles by defining a specification at the Joint (Fixing). After selecting modify -> Joint 1-SelectR its section (always the main section). 2-Click on its joint 3-Press enter 4-Select the attached type 5-Make "Apply"
Nodes and connections
Subordinate Node and Dominant Node
By default, the connection nodes between irons are subordinate, i.e. the direction of the connected iron has priority On the position of the connection node. By making a dominant node, its position takes precedence over the direction of the connected iron, so when youRestores the connections, the irons are adapted in length and direction.

CREATION OF A PLAN BOOK
DRAWING (Plan notebook)
It is strongly recommended to generate the plan books (DRWG) and folios (SHEE) according to a model predefined by the E3D system administrator. This allows the creation of homogeneous plans, and standardized by profession, here are some examples:It is possible to create a plan book without using a predefined template from the Create Explicitly Drawing menu under the TOOLS tab. In this case, the user must configure the plan book. This method is therefore not recommended.

DRESSING OF PLANS
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
AVEVA E3D Draw, uses two types of elements to differentiate elements in different layers, these two types of layers, called LAYER and Visual LAYER (VLAYER), oHave very distinct properties.
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
LAYER
LAYER-type elements are native to PDMS and not E3D. Allowing you to order 2D elements in aVIEW, they appear in the following form in the hierarchy: Each of these LAYERs has a PURPOSE attribute that allows you to define the function of each of them; for example, the PURPOSE attribute filled in DIMA, allows you to Define a quotation layer (DImensionning), a LAYER whose PURPOSE is entered in LABA, allows you to define an element tracking layer (Labelling) and A LAYER whose PURPOSE is entered at NOTA, allows you to define a layer of annotations (2D Draughting) For more informationNs see ADMIN > System Defaults > Layer Purpose Definitions... in Administrator session LAYERs are defined under the hierarchy of a VIEW and are totally linked to it (position of the elements, dimensions, scale,...)
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
Visual LAYER
Elements of type VISUAL LAYER, belong to and are linked to the SHEET. Members of a VISUAL LAYER SET, they allow you to "group" the dressing of plans by category, and to define a formattingCommon to all the elements attached to this Home Layer The creation of a VISUAL LAYER is carried out from HOME > Visual Layer
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
Visual STYLE
Visual Styles are 2D representation styles that define colors, fonts, text height, line styles, etc., for each type of 2D element. These styles are accessible from ANNOTATE > Active Visual Style. Each Visual Style is predefined by the administrator, ensuring consistent graphical standards across all project plans. Note: The chosen style determines the properties of newly created elements, while modifying an element is done through the Properties window.
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
2D and Visual LAYER elements
Each 2D element (drawing or annotation) can be assigned to a Visual LAYER. The assignment of an element to a Visual LAYER, allowsTo define its color, its line type as well as its display configuration and Of printing. When created, 2D elements are associated with the active Visual LAYER of the Active Properties window. Selection of the work area Selection of the Visual LAYERSelection of the type of line Color selection Assignment of the Visual LAYER and Properties to one or more 2D element(s) Identification of the Visual LAYER and Properties of a 2D element
Layers (Layer & Visual Layer)
Creation
The quotation tools under ANNOTATE > Annotate, allow the realization of quotations under the Chained and Orthogonal Chained tools There are several types of quotations: - Orthogonal (orthogonal) - Aligned (aligned) Chained Orthogonal QuotationChained Aligned Quotation Orthogonal Quotation with Quotation Base on the left Orthogonal quotation with quotation base on the right Aligned Quotation with Quotation Base at the first point Offbeat Quotation with Quotation Base on the left Offbeat Quotation with Quotation Base on the rightOffbeat Quotation with Quotation Base at the first point The quotation can also be generated from 2D Space > Right click > Annotate > Orthogonal Chained
Quotations
Creation
The pointsTs of quotation are automatically generated when selecting a 2D or 3D object, attachments to 3D elements (cotation Associative) are indicated by a blue highlight. The cursor allows you to select several types of attachment: - Challenge pointNor by geographical coordinates (DPOI) Coordinates X Y Coordinates - Point associated with MODEL elements (DPPT) In the image opposite: Attachment to Ppoint 2 of the flange In this case, the element to which the quotation is attached appears in blue highlighted.- Point defined by the end, middle point, intersection, ... of a segment (DPOI) In the image opposite: Attachment to the midpoint of the segment
Quotations
Change
The modiFication of the points of a rib is carried out in 2D. The reallocation of existing points is carried out by selecting them with a left click and validating the New position by another left click. The modification of the textual information is carried out pAr a double click on the displayed text
Label
Label
The identification of MODEL elements is carried out by the creation of Label. These 2D elements attached to the 3D elements, can be under theIn the form of framed texts, or be formatted according to a predefined template by the system administrator.
Label
Type of Labels
General Label These Labels are simple benchmarks to set up entirely.Symbolic Label These Labels are benchmarks according to a model predefined by the system administrator
Label
Modification of a label (FORMAT - LABEL Tools menu)
Visual Style ModifyVisual style operator, this option allows you to change the Style of the selected General Labels and Symbolic Labels (According to the predefined models). Text Text modifier, this option allows you to change the formatting of the text part of the General Labels selected.Leader Reminder line modifier, this option allows you to modify the formatting of the Reminder line of the General Labels and Symbolic Labels selected. Frame Framing modifier, this option allows you to modify the formatting ofThe framework of the selected General Labels. Gaps Manager of the cache elements of the Lines leaders.
Label
Modification of a general label
General Labels During the seleCtion of the Label, it is possible to modify graphically, its position, orientation, attachment, as well as the setting in Form of the text. The formatting of the Leader Line and the Frame are managed from the FORMAT menu (LABELS TOOLS).The formatting of the text is most commonly carried out by a Double click on the General Label, giving access to the Text Editor
Label
Modification of a Smart Texts label
Smart textsGeneral Labels as well as Simple Texts (TEXP - Text Primitive), can use information from databases. Principle of intelligent texts #: key character for the search for an attribute (C2:5): Taking into account the attribute from character 2 to character 5(P1:3): Taking into account parts 1 to 3 of the attribute (name parts are delimited by the "/") Ex: Label on an elbow whose PIPE is named /BAT-001/PIPE/50-ERA-001 The code #PIPE(P3:3)(C2:) will give: 50-ERA-001 The code #PIPE(P3:)(C2:3) will give: 50The (C2:) allows you to eliminate the / at the beginning of the name; in the absence of an end character, the character string ends at the end of the name These intelligent texts can also be assigned to the projection text of the quotations (e.g. #SPREF(P2:)(C2:))To retrieve the specification of a profile On a rating between two beams or poles.
Label
Modification of a Symbolic Labels label
When selecting the Label, it is possibleBle to modify graphically, its position, orientation, attachment, as well as the scale of the associated symbol ( Template Reference - TMRF) The formatting of the callback line (Leader Line), is managed from the FORMAT menu (LABELS TOOLS). The betIn the form of the text cannot be modified on Symbolic Labels (managed by the system administrator)
Label
Symbols
Symbols accessible from ANNOTATE > Symbols are created asSymbolic Labels, referring to a 2D drawing model, alone Their position, orientation and size is modifiable. These elements do not have a callback line, but are attached to ELEMENTS of MODEL, and will be automatically replaced during theUpdate of a view for which the MODEL elements have been moved.
Label
Verification of links
When updating a view, it may happen that some elements of the habilLage are linked to model elements that no longer exist. These elements are then no longer visible, or no longer informed. The Clean Up Annotation tool allows you to remove all annotation elements that are no longer linked to 3D elements. ActivationOf the Model Ref Check allows a real-time visualization of the links of the elements Dressing: In green: the dressing elements in connection with the model In red: the dressing elements unrelated to the model
Label
2D drawing
From the DRAW Menu, a 2D interface is accessible to launch queries on the positioning and dimensions of the elements of the 2D space. This menu also allows the 2D drawing plot in the es2D pace to reproduce installation details not present in MODEL. It is also possible thanks to these tools to add 2D dressing to the plans in order to make fully finalized documents under DRAW. Measure Verification of dimensionsWe have 2D and 3D elements in 2D space Querying 3D element information (position, name, etc.) Draw 2D drawing Construct Construction line tools Modify Tools for editing 2D elements Multiple Copy (Array) This tool allows a copyR move to an array, i.e. the multiple copy of an element or a selection of elements with a step Defined.
Revision Control
Revision Control
AVEVA E3D integrates a tool ofE management of revisions, with which it is possible to compare revisions with each other. When creating the revision by clicking on, the system generates a Snapshot of the Sheet. For each revision, it is possible to fill in all the parametersIdentification of the people who have worked or verified the plan. For each revision, a REVI element is created and stored under the SHEET in the Draw Explorer. Depending on the configuration of the cartridge used, the information of the REVI can automaticallyFill in the cartridge revision table.

Sub-Equipment
A Sub-equipment (SUBE), is a sub-assembly of equipment. It is a graphic group whose display can be managed Regardless of the equipment. It is most often used to dissociate several partiesAre of the same equipment (e.g. a motor, feet, a chassis, etc.)
Sub-Equipment
Change the origin of an Equipment / Sub-Equipment
ID Point: Placement of the oriGine to a P-point designated on the screen (it is possible to create a temporary primitive to place the origin of the equipment or sub-equipment. Explicit...: Displacement of the origin in one or more direction(s) In both cases a confirmation messageAtion/cancellation will be proposed to you (Return to the original origin YES: Cancellation NO: Confirmation of the action)
Sub-Equipment
Standard equipment
The eqStandard equipment are equipment created using a configurable template. They can be modified after their creation. Note: The Modify Properties window allows you to fill in the configurable dimensions of Standard equipment. We find there atUssi a "Plotfile" plan, which informs the dimensions Configurable.
Level of representation
Level of representation
Each primitive of theThe model is defined by a level of representation. It allows you to define the level of detail To which the primitive corresponds. There are several levels of representation: •Level 0-3: Summary representation. •Level 4-6: Detailed representation. •NiCalf 7-10: Very detailed representation. •Level 9-10: Representation of the volumes of obstructions and reservations. The definition of the level of representation of an equipment primitive is carried out when it is created.
Level of obstruction
Level of obstruction
Each primitive of the model is defined by a level of obstruction. There are three levels of obstruction •Level 0: Clash none.Primitives are not taken into account in the Clasher •Level 1: Clash soft. Possibility to choose whether primitives are taken into account or not in the Clasher •Level 2: Hard clash. Primitives are always taken into account in the ClasherTo limit the calculation times of the Clasher it is advisable to create the primitives of an EQUI with an obstruction level 0 (image 1), and to create An obstruction level 2 primitive (image 2), which encompasses the total volume of the pump.
Creation of an association
Creation of an association
Rules for the association between equipment can be defined by the user. These rules allow a verification of the positioning of equipment.These rules are defined by a positioning constraint between 2 elements. At the end of the design, the user can check the state of these rules in order to validate the positioning of the elements. Associations are managed in a specific hierarchyThat, Available from the Associate Browser window
Verification of associations
Verification of associations
The rules of association can be consulted from the Association Manager.It allows you to check the status of the existing rules (Passed / Failed), and the criteria for them: -Type of association -Distance A summary table of the elements constituting the association is also presented.
Their functions
Their functions
Attachments are created in the same way as a piping component. They are used for various applications. We will detail the main ones. The different types of ATTA are defined by setting the ATTY attribute. • ATTY Unset: Default type. It is used to mark the position of a support on the piping in the isometric. • ATTY CCCC: Allows you to add a note with a leader line on the isometric. The attachment will also be dimensioned (referred to as a dimensioned comment). • ATTY CCNN: Allows you to add a note with a leader line on the isometric. In this case, the attachment will not be dimensioned (referred to as an undimensioned comment). • ATTY Flow: Adds an arrow to indicate the direction of fluid flow on the isometric. • ATTY XXXX: Splits the piping line. This option is used if you want to break your isometric to make it easier to read. • ATTY SSSS: Defines the point from which an isometric should be divided on the next sheet. The same considerations apply as for an ATTY SSSS. • ATTY INPP: Defines the beginning and end points of insulation on an isometric. If you want to add a comment to the attachment (in the case of CCCC or CCNN), you need to fill in the Stext attribute of the attachment.

What is laser application?
What is the laser reading?
Recent developments in computer techniques and tools have made theLasergrammetry (recorded by 3D laser scanner) essential for the realization of TQC models (as built), the industrial installation survey for revamping studies... The advantages of this technology are multiple: time saving, pCircumcision, minimization of the risk of exposure in dangerous environments, 3D modeling... A laser scanner scans the surrounding space and collects millions of points thanks to its laser beam. A device can generate up to 1 million points per secondOf (each point being a measure in space, in 3D). A cloud of points can thus be generated in a few minutes and represent the environment accurately recorded. In order to obtain a complete model, it is necessary to make several stations ofE survey and compile all the point clouds obtained.
Preparation of the point cloud
Preparation of the point cloud
Before it can be operated under AVEVA E3D,The data extracted from the 3D laser scanners must be compiled by the AVEVA LFM Server software.
Import of the point cloud
Import of the point cloud
You have to be admIllustrator of the E3D2 project to import a point cloud The import of a point cloud is done from the ADMIN tab > LASER ACCESS > CREATE LASER MODEL Following the import, an XGEOM element is then created in the AVEVA E3D2 databases, it is visible in the Model Explorer.In the same way as any element of AVEVA E3D2, the point cloud can be displayed in the 3D view.
BubbleView

You have to be administeredAtor of the E3D2 project to import a point cloud The import of a point cloud is done from the ADMIN > LASER ACCESS > CREATE LASER MODEL tab Following the import, an XGEOM element is then created in the AVEVA E3D2 databases, it is visible in the Model Explorer.In the same way as any element of AVEVA E3D2, the point cloud can be displayed in the 3D view. From the Available Bubble views window or by graphically identifying a reading station via the Pick option, it is possible to switchThe 3D window in "Bubble View" mode The simultaneous display of a cloud of Points and 3D elements can allow A verification of the consistency of the 3D model and laser model. From this mode of viewing, The user can change stations from RelReference eve in order to move In the 3D model. The icon allows you to leave the "Bubble View" mode.
HyperBubble
HyperBubble
The HyperBubble tool allowsTo the user to work in an environment such as built fully immersed. The user is able to walk away from the scanner's position, move freely around the point cloud data in any direction. The HyperBubble is not available by default with the point cloud. To be able to use it, it must be created with the "LFM Server" software Once the HyperBubble is activated in Model (View > Laser > HyperBubble), use the "Walk Mode" or "Fly MOde" to navigate the point cloud. Walk Mode: Navigate the model as if you were walking in the model. Use the "Space" key on the keyboard to refocus the Fly Mode view: Navigate the model as in a flight simulator. CUse the "F2" key on the keyboard to show/hide the internal E3D windows (Model Explorer, Property grid etc...)
Density of points
Display Option
By dEfault, point clouds are represented with a low point density so as not to overload the software with data. From the Display Options tool, it is possible to define a volume and act on the density of the point cloud inside it.The volume must be defined via the "CE Volume" or "Pick Volume" options. Once the volume has been created, it is possible to modify it by double clicking graphically on the volume and using the graphic modification handles. The Display Re optionSet: Allows you to hide the volume The Edge Mode option: Allows you to optimize the edges of the reading to increase visibility (Passage in grayscale) The Low density option: Allows you to hide areas of the point cloud where the density is low
Density of points
Area
Thanks to an AREA, it is possible to define a volume and act on the density of the point cloud inside it. The volume may be more complex (Circular, pyramidal etc...) that a volume made with the Display Mode option and it will be saved in a project database via an Area Definition. 1 - Creation of an Area WORLD at the same level as a SITE in the Model Explorer ( GENERAL > AREA > WOLRD ) 2 - Creation of aArea SET ( GENERAL > AREA > SET ) 3 - Creation of an Area DEFINITION ( GENERAL > AREA > DEFINITION ) 4 - In the DEFINITION area, model primitives to define the limits of the volume to increase the density of points
Demolition
Demolition
In AVEVA E3D, it is possible to demolish a part of a point cloud. 1 - Create a Demolition WORLD at the same level as a SITE in the Model Explorer (GENERAL > LASER DEMOLITION > WORLD) 2 - Create a Demolition SET (GENERAL > LASER DEMOLITION > SET) 3 - Create a Demolition PACKAGE (GENERAL > LASER DEMOLITION > PACKAGE) 4 - In the Demolition PACKAGE, model primitives to define the boundaries of the volume of the area to be demolished in the point cloud. 5 - Once the volume is defined, click on "READY" then "DEMOLITION" to demolish the desired area in the point cloud. To redisplay the demolished area, click again on "DEMOLITION". The BROWER option allows displaying a secondary hierarchy listing all the demolished elements in the point cloud of the project.
Measuring tool
Measuring tool
The use of the measurement tool requires a graphic selection. The Positioning dialog boxControl allows you to configure the type of hook on the elements of the graphic view. To take measurements in relation to a point cloud, you must select the type of hook "LASER data" By default, the measurement is broken down into 3 axial dimensions (East, North and Up).The results are displayed in the Measure window and in the graphic view. It is possible to obtain only a horizontal dimension and a vertical dimension by activating the Perpendicular to option. The Show linear dimension option allows the display of direct measurement in the graphic view.The Unit Type drop-down menu allows you to select the unit in which the result is to be presented.
Piping
Piping
When creating a pipe and defining theHEAD and TAIL, it is possible to automatically retrieve a position and a diameter. Select the Pick branch in laser data option, then click on a pipe in the laser reading to retrieve the position and diameter of the pipe. This optIon is valid for the HEAD and TAIL Useful options: Nudge option allows you to move the head or tail along the axis of the pipe Option Opposite Direction allows you to reverse the direction of the head or tail
Clasher
Clasher
The clasher tool can be used to check the clashes between the new modeling made in MODEL and the point cloud. To check the clashes with the point cloud, you must add the XGEOM inS the list of elements of obstructions.
Laser in Draw
Display of the point cloud
E3D 2 allows the insertion of a point cloud into a 2D plan in the DRAW To insert aPoint cloud in DRAW, you must add the XGEOM of the point cloud in the drawlist of the view. Once the XGEOM is in the drawlist, a "Laser Volume Representation Set" (LAVOST) must be created via the Display tool. This element of Representation will be assOcié to Area definition (AREADE) or demolition Package (DEMOPA). First, DRAW checks if the view is linked to a "laser volume representation set", if this Is not the case, a window opens to create a new laser volume representation.A laser volume representation is stored in the Library of the sheet and can be used by several Views. Once the laser volume representation is created, it must be linked to it one or more Area Definition or/and one or Several demolition package
Laser in Draw
Quotation and dressing of the plan
After inserting a point cloud in a view it is possible to create quotations and annotations in relation to this point cloud. For this he fAut adjust the graphic hooking on Laser, in order to select laser points.

MODELING OF PIPING LINES
The basics
This module allows you to create all the piping elements.
MODELING OF PIPING LINES
The branches
The Branches have two functions: 1. Define the start and finish points of a section of piping (Head/Tail) 2. Contain Head/Tail piping components:They define a position, direction and start or end diameter of the Piping. AVEVA E3D allows you to connect these points to elements such as tees, Nozzles, other branches, etc... and automatically retrieve the information NecessaryComponents: They define the passage of the piping, their order must remain the sense of the fluid! Thus, if two components are aligned, correctly oriented, and Of the same diameter, AVEVA E3D will automatically generate the tube between these 2 components
