Naming of Shell Stiffeners in the Plate/Profile Data Bank

When transferred to the plate and/or profile data bank the stiffener will get a name based on the curved panel name:
<panel_name>/S<sequence_number>[P|S|SP][W|F]
-
<panel_name> is name of the curved panel to which the stiffener belongs
-
/S is always added
-
<sequence_number> is a neutral sequence number assigned to the stiffener when it is added to the curved panel. Assembly Planning uses the same number when referencing a stiffener in a curved panel.
-
P or S will be added if individual parts port-side and starboard should be stored
-
W and F, respectively, are added if built profiles are split into different parts for web and flange.
The portside version of the symmetrical shell stiffener AAL100-S1 that belongs to the panel AA567-8 may get the part name AA567-8/S5PP (if the sequence number 5 was assigned to the stiffener when added to the curved panel).
If the same stiffener is split into web and flange parts their names will be AA567-8/S5PPW and AA567-8/S5PPF, respectively (in analogy with the rules for plane panel profiles).
