Utilities

A set of utilities helps the support designer to be productive. These include sophisticated copy and move operations, with automatic adjustment of supporting elements to allow for changes in relative pipe positions. For example, a sloping line can be supported by designing the first support, then copying it at desired intervals. Necessary changes in elevation (and thus parameterized dimensions) are accommodated automatically. In addition, a graphical coloured maximum span indication can be shown, based on span tables stored in the catalogue.
