ZEROLENGTHSKEWS

Function:

Allows the user to connect a vertical Branch to a falling line.

When modelling falling lines containing Butt Weld Tees or Olets, the user can position a zero-length variable-angle bend at the offline p-point of each Tee or Olet.

Description:

If falling lines containing Butt Weld Tees or Olets are modelled with zero-length variable-angle bends at the offline p-point of each Tee or Olet, the user can connect a vertical Branch. The ZEROLENGTHSKEWS command suppresses dimensioning skewboxes for Butt Weld Tees or Olets in falling lines if zero-length bends have been included in the model.

Bends at Tees or Olets will only be considered as zero-length if they are less than 0.5mm long. Bends with dimensions greater than this will be detailed as normal components.

Examples:

ZEROlengthskews ON

Output skewboxes at vertical connections to falling lines.

ZEROlengthskews OFF

Suppress skewboxes at vertical connections to falling lines.
