Layout Grid from SOP

The layout of the grid must be defined through the current SOP datum, with the grid lines spaced out from the SOP in both directions.

1. Use the HVAC Layout Grid from SOP window to layout the grid, from the main menu, select Utilities > HVAC Tiles/Grid Layout > Grid from S.O.P.

   

   The user is required to input the grid spacing separations

   Note: The default is 600.

   East/West Grid Spacings	Input the width dimension of the grid spacing separation.
   North/South Grid Spacings	Input the length dimension of the grid spacing separation.
   OK	Select OK to close the window and create the layout grid.
   Cancel	Select Cancel to close the window and discard inputs.

2. You are prompted to Position the SouthWest Grid Extent in the 3D graphical view, then Position the NorthEast Grid Extent. A grid is now shown in the 3D graphical view and in the design explorer.

   

   

   If the identified area is not rectangular, an overall grid is created using abutting rectangles based on setting-out points.

3. Apply tiles to the grid to act as a reference position, see Apply Tiles in Grid.
