For a curved panel, whose name ends in S, only those developed plates will be listed, whose names also end in S. The resulting output data will be sorted with respect to the following concepts in the order given below:
-
The list identification number (see below). A new page will be produced when this number changes.
-
The building block number (cf <no1> above).
-
The group number (cf <no2> above).
-
The position number.
This means that plates originating from panels with identical block and group numbers will be listed together.
When the block or group numbers change, the following items will be listed:
The brackets belonging to the panel with the preceding block and group numbers. The brackets are listed in the order they are stored in the panel object.
The layout of the output list is explained below.
For an example see Example.

The rows 5 to 10 will be printed at the top of each new page.
|
<yard> |
Yard name. Maximum 45 characters. Can be controlled via a logical name SB_YARD. |
|
<subject> |
DATA FOR ORDERING OF PLATES |
|
<lno> |
An identification number of the list. If record type 10 has been given, <lno> will be the list identification given in that record. Otherwise, the number is a combination of the building block number, the number of the panel in the block and a running number. |
Example:

Figure 2:1. Identification number via panel name.
|
The running number will start at 01 as soon as any of the digits in the identification concept changes. |
|
|
<sl> |
Ship letters, two characters. The characters will be fetched from the string defined by the logical name SB_HREF. If this is not defined, the letters will be the first two characters of a panel. |
|
<date> |
Processing date. |
|
<page> |
Page number. |
|
rows 8 and 9 form the headlines for <data row, plates> and will be explained below in connection with these data rows. |
|
|
ORDER |
intended for annotations by the user. |
|
BL |
Number of the building block (taken from the name of the panel, cf. input). |
|
GR |
The group number of the panel within the |
|
NO |
building block (taken from the name of the panel, cf. input). |
|
PANEL NAME |
The name of the panel whose plates are calculated. Until the first record of type 10 has been given, the block and group number will be printed, otherwise the panel name. |
|
POS |
The position number of the plate (taken from the plate attribute in the panel object). If the name of the panel ends in S, P or SP, this ending will follow immediately after the position number. |
|
PLATE |
The name of the plate attribute within the panel resulting in the plate detail. Note: The name of the detail will be composed of BL NO, GR NO and PLATE NO or of PANEL NAME and PLATE NO. |
|
QUAL |
Quality code for the plate material. |
|
TREAT |
Code for treatment. |
|
NUM |
Number of the denoted detail to be ordered.
|
|
LE |
The length of the least circumscribed rectangle (inclusive manufacturing excess, defined when generating the panel) added with standard manufacturing excess 15 mm at both ends (= 30 mm). Cf. Weight and Scrap Percentage. |
|
BR |
The same for the breadth of the least circumscribed rectangle. |
|
TH |
The thickness of the plate. |
|
EXCESS |
The manufacturing excess defined in the generation of the panel and in the direction of the length and the breadth of the least circumscribed rectangle respectively. Cf. Excess Along Length and Breadth. LE, BR, TH, EXCESS LE, EXCESS BR are all given in millimeters. |
|
WEIGHT |
The weight of the detail without manufacturing excess. Cf. Weight and Scrap Percentage. The density is supposed to be 7860 kg/m3. |
|
SCRAP |
The scrap percentage. Cf. Weight and Scrap Percentage. |
|
COMMENT |
For developed plates possible remarks are: 3 EDGES, 5 EDGES |
|
<headline, brackets> has the concepts QUAL, NUM and TH common with the headline in data row 8 (cf. above). The meaning will be explained below in connection with |
|
|
<data row, brackets> which contains information about the brackets belonging to the panel(s), the details of which are listed before the brackets. |
|
|
BRACKETS: |
The designation of the brackets. |
|
NO |
The number of the bracket in the panel. If there are several identical standard brackets, they will all be listed on one line and NO is not given. |
|
QUAL |
Cf <data row, details> above. For standard brackets NUM will contain the number of the denoted bracket in the panel. This figure will be multiplied by two for a panel not ending in S, P or SP. |
|
PLATE |
The name of the bracket as a detail in the plate data bank. Not given for standard brackets. |
