Create Room Design Application Door or Window Penetration in Structural Steel

A door or window penetration is requested by selecting Managed Hole on the Select Opening window.

You must select a steel panel to penetrate with a hole matching the hole requirements of the door or window.

The steel panel selected must be parallel to the plane of the door or window for the hole to be projected onto the steel panel. The door or window catalogue component selected must contain a penetration requirement profile which is configured by the catalogue designer. This is an extrusion or negative extrusion in the catalogue definition of the door or window that has purpose HPGE. This shape defines the boundary of the hole that is required in structural steel.

When a suitable steel panel has been selected the system asks the user to confirm the selection before creating an entry in the Hole Management system.

An opening in the wall for a door or window is not controlled by the Hole Management system since the door and the wall both belong to the Room Design application.
