End Cuts

End cuts of framework profiles are translated into a hull representation when used in production. There are three different scenarios:

• Sniped end cut, generated using the data in attributes Drnstart/Drnend will be handled without a catalogue translation. A standard hull end cut is used representing the sniped end cut. Sniped end cut cannot be combined with other negative geometry. If this is the requested end cut behavior, the end definition should be done as specified below in scenario two or three.

• Second scenario is when framework profiles are modelled with the mapping end cuts in the catalogue, representing the set-up of marine end cuts in hull.

• In this case there is a one-to-one relationship with the end cut used on the framework profile and the corresponding built in end cut used in hull production. The catalogue version of these marine end cuts are available in the MAS project delivered with the AVEVA Marine product. They can be found in /MARINE/MAPPING_ENDCUTS and may need to be customized with the same changes as done for the hull end cut set-up. The example below shows the definition on the outfitting side and the resulting manufacturing output:

  The mapped end cuts are translated when manufacturing information is requested and the resulting input is as defined on the hull side as shown below:

• Third scenario is when the end cuts of framework profiles are defined by using hull user defined end cut. The transfer to hull production is then done using the same user defined end cut used in hull production. Hull user defined end cut requires.

  • Attribute bangle to be zero.

  • User defined end cut negative geometry definition point corresponds to framework profile cross section definition point.

    The example below shows the definition on the outfitting side and the resulting manufacturing output:
