Catalogue Data

Elements that have a Specification Reference (SPREF) also have a Component Reference (CMPREF). The Component Weight can be set here. The setting is usually numeric such as 10 for the weight of a pipe valve. However the component can also be an expression such as (RPRO TWEI) which allows for more user control. Component wet weights can also be set in this way.

For Centre of Gravity (Dry and Wet) it is possible to create a Ppoint with a Purpose attribute of COFG (or WCOG) that is used as the Centre of Gravity position. Otherwise P0 is considered to be the CofG.
