Model Equipment

Before modelling a piece of equipment, the correct database elements should already be present in the Model Explorer, for example, a World, Site and Zone should exist. If this is not the case, refer to How Data is Stored for more information.

The Equipment discipline has the functionality to model pieces of equipment using the following methods:

• Using primitives to create one-off pieces of equipment.

• Design Templates use primitives and other elements to create equipment, the templates are generally parameterized (standard or selection table).

• Import models and different file formats using the Mechanical Equipment Interface functionality.
