Equipment Assembly Model Options

The simplest approach to modelling Equipment is to create an Equipment element in Model and create a collection of primitives and nozzles under the Equipment element. In this case, no Design Template is used. The approach may be suitable for unique Equipment items that are not reused in the same project or in other projects.

In order to model an Equipment item containing Pipe and HVAC connections, and support steelwork, where the Equipment can be selected via an Equipment specification, it is necessary to create an Equipment Template. Refer to Design Template for further information.
