Drawing Facilities

PDMS generates drawings by using live links to the design data to ensure that new drawings always reflect the current state of the progressing design model. As the design progresses, up-to-date industry standard engineering drawings, to international standards, can be created on demand.

The Hangers & Supports application for use with Draft provides fully automatic production of annotated and dimensioned fabrication drawings for hangers and supports, incorporating location plans, full material take-off, and support schedules. A range of user customization options are available, with basic drawing layout being controlled by a user-defined backing sheet. Only minimal user post-processing (such as tidying label positions) is required to complete a drawing.

Drawings may be created in either batch or interactive mode.
