Support/Hanger Dimensions

Support positions can be dimensioned in one of two ways, overall or string. The default is string, and this can be changed using the SUPPORTS command.

Support information may be omitted completely from the isometrics.

By default, support/hanger dimensions are positioned with a standout of 6mm and overall dimensions are positioned with a standout of 16mm on the same side of the pipe as string dimensions (see the Support, string and overall dimensions image in Dimensioning and the Dimensioning line standout distances (default standout distances) image in Bend Radii).

The user can use the DIMENSIONS HANGERS command to position support/hanger dimensions at one standout on the opposite side from string dimensions (see the Dimensioning line standout distances (default standout distances) image in Bend Radii)).
