What is E3D? – Some Term and Conventions

E3D is subdivided into convenient functional parts. These are referred to throughout this guide by the following terms: • Modules are subdivisions of E3D which you use to carry out specific types of operation. • Disciplines are discipline related user interfaces in the E3D Model Module. • Applications are supplementary add-ons used in conjunction with E3D Modules and Disciplines.

Login information – Usernames, Teams and MDB’s

T

In order to start up E3D you need a Username and MDB. Usernames are assigned to specific Teams in Admin, in these Teams are specific databases allocated where you have write access as member of that Team. A MDB is a collection of Databases, defined in Admin, that you can see in Model and on some of these Databases, specified as Design DB’s, you HAVE write access. In example below there are 2 MDB’s: /Area-A and /Area-B Both MDB’s can see the same catalogue DB’s but /Area-A cannot see the Piping, Mechanical and Structural DB’s from /Area-B and vice versa. The first part of the DB name is the Team it belongs to; AP/AP belongs to Team /AP When user BPA, belonging to Team /BP, uses MDB /Area-A, he can see all what’s defined in this MDB, however has no write access to any of the Design DB’s.

E3D Model – Hierarchy

T

A typical Model hierarchy starts at Model WORLd, underneath are SITEs which contain ZONEs, which contain the individual design objects such as Piping, Equipment and Structures Model WORL* SITE AP ZONE AP1-1 PIPE P1005-1A BRAN P1005-1A/B1 GASK 1 FLAN 1 ELBO 1 PIPE P1006-1A BRAN P1006-1A/B1 BRAN P1006-1A/B2 SITE AM ZONE AM1-1 EQUI V-30 CILY 1 DISH 1 SUBE V-30/SKIRT CILY 1 BOX 1 25

Looking from bottom level up, you can see that each element is owned by the “tree” holder above. Sites and Zones are only names and don’t own any graphical information, they can be considered being a folder and sub folder however with a position and orientation.

E3D Model – Working in a multi write environment

T

Design databases in E3D are Multi write, which means that every one (per discipline) is accessing the same DB and writing to it. In order to see what other designers have done you need a regular update of the 3D data that you are working with. If you perform a GETWORK, then all the DB’s that you see will update instantly to the latest SAVEWORK actions on all databases present in the MDB you logged in with. In order for others to see what you have done you need to perform a SAVEWORK on regular basis. SAVEWORK and GETWORK can be found on the top left corner of the E3D main frame 35

E3D Model – Working in a multi office environment

T

With E3D we have the capability to work from multiple offices in the same 3D model with the use of AVEVA Global. In such cases we have a HUB location and (a) Satellite location(s) and AVEVA Global takes care of the connection and synchronisation between Parent (HUB) and Childs (Satellites). The synchronisation takes place automatically and/or via manual execution by E3D Support…

E3D Model – A Controlled workflow

JD

T

Since the introduction of 3D modelling, the 3D model is becoming more and more a central source of information next to the Data Management tools. Since we extract all sorts of information and deliverables from the 3D model and often work with multiple offices on one project, it is essential that everything happens in a very consistent and organized way. Jacobs has developed a set of tools, JE-Applications, specific for each discipline that will help the Designers execute in a controlled environment. We go more into details of that in the discipline related follow up sessions. One of the foundations of a controlled environment is the organisation of the 3D model. The Jacobs E3D model is therefore divided into several discipline related Databases (SITE’s), each containing several Work Packages (ZONE’s) These SITE’s and ZONE’s can be seen as geographical parts of the plant, however any other criteria can be used to specific project requirements to define SITE’s and ZONE’s 38

E3D Model – Model organization - Disciplines

JD

T

Here we look at a example of a Model Database organisation where each discipline has his own Database to work in, indicated here as well are the users where they should have write access… (refer to beginning of this session also where we discussed Usernames, Teams and MDB’s) In a multi office environment extra sets of databases will be created, however the first character of the DB and SITE will be different: /AP = office 1 /BP = office 2 /DP = office 3 Representing 3 Piping DB’s over 3 locations 39

E3D Model – Model organization – Work Packages

JD

T

Once the criteria for the project breakdown structure has been defined, so called Work Packages (ZONE’s) will be created which represents the breakdown structure in the Model Hierarchy, in this example it will be a geographical breakdown of the plant, the name of the ZONE’s prefixed with the location and discipline it belongs to… Each discipline DB contains a identical Work Package definition…

E3D Model – Positioning and Orientations

T

As mentioned earlier in this session (Hierarchy); SITE’s and ZONE’s can be considered being storage folders, however with a POSition and ORIentation. SITE’s and ZONE’s do not have any geometrical information from themselves and therefore they are invisible as such in the 3D graphical View. In order give a better understanding of their behaviour and to visualize them, in this session SITE’s will be represented as a green filled rectangle and ZONE’s as a red filled rectangle Everything that has a POSition/ORIentation has a Origin point and unless specified otherwise the POSition by default will be E 0mm, N 0mm, U 0mm and ORIentation will be Y is N and Z is U (Y axis is pointing North, Z axis is pointing Up)

Z= U

Querying POS/ORI’s of elements always takes place relative to their OWNers (unless specified otherwise: indicated as With Respect To (WRT) ) 42

Y= N

E (X)

E3D Model – Positioning and Orientations

T

A brief overview of the elements containing a Position and Orientation and whether they contain own geometrical information: Element

Pos/Ori

- SITE Yes - ZONE Yes - PIPE No - BRANch No (1) - BRAN mem (ELBOw, CAP, …) Yes - EQUIpment Yes - SUBEquipment Yes - EQUI/SUBE mem Primitives (BOX, CYLI,…) Yes - STRUcture Yes - SUBStructure Yes - SUBS mem Yes - FRaMeWork No - SuBFRamework No - FRMW/SBFR mem (SeCTioNs, PANEls, ..) Yes

Geometry No No No Yes (2) Yes No No Yes No No Yes No No Yes

(1) A Branch does have a start and end position and a start and end direction (2) A Branch shows up as a wired line in the 3D graphical view when start point and endpoint are not in line with each other, if they are then the representation of a TUBE is shown. 43

The current Orientation is shown WRT /* ( = WORLd ) These values can be manually edited to orientate the EQUIpment to any desired ORI WRT any desired element.

E3D Model – Positioning and Orientations

T

E

Another quick method to query and/or change positions and orientations is using the Command Window by typing one of the following syntaxes: Q POS (This is always With Respect To the owning element) Q POS IN WORL or Q POS WRT /* (Both give the same result) Q POS WRT /V-809 (Position relatively to a given name) Q ORI (This is always With Respect To the owning element) Q ORI IN WORL or Q ORI WRT /* (Both give the same result) If you double click on the result in the Command Window, that line will be copied and lets you edit the values to which the Current Element respond accordingly. For more advanced methods to query/change positions and orientations refer to the AVEVA Help View 49

E3D Model – Measure Underneath the Home Tab > Measure group, we have 3 types of measurements: - Distance - Angle - Position (Query)

E3D Model – Measure Distance (Ppoint > Graph.)

T

E

For the 1st measuring point, object snap is set to Any. By left mouse click on a object, P-Points of that object will lit up. While holding the left mouse button pressed, move over to the P-Point you want to use for the 1st measuring point and release as soon as the cursor snaps… Result…

…for the 2nd measuring point the object snap can be changed, here to Graphics for example, proceed as in step 1, now choose a graphical line… 53

E3D Model – Measure Angle With Angle measurement you need 3 points in the following order: -

Root of Angle First point Second point

1st point

54

E

Select Element & Snap

For the First point select ELBO

Keep in mind that the end result is exactly based on the 3D location of these 3 points.

2nd point

T

For the Root of angle select ELBO For the Second point select ELBO

Root

The Angle measurement relies on 3 points with their own 3D locations. The result is exactly from these 3 points, there is no locking of coordinates (!!)

E3D Model – Query Attributes

T

Each element in E3D, whether that is a complete Pipe/Structure/Equipment or individual members of these objects have Attributes. There are 3 types: - Standard Attributes, like Position, Description, Function, … - Pseudo Attributes, these are attributes relating to the properties of the object: Catref, Db refno, Owning Dbname, … - User Defined Attributes, (UDA’s) these are attributes that have been added to the object as extra (for the use with JE-Apps for example) All these attributes can be queried, and in case of the Standard and User Defined Attributes, can be edited. In the Command Window they can be queried by making the element to be queried CE and by typing Q ATT. This will list all Standard attributes and UDA’s… In the Command Window these can be edited (text between quotes) Another more advanced way is by calling up the Attribute form… 55

E3D Model – Query Attributes Right mouse click on object in Explorer and select Attributes…

… the Attribute form opens up in which the white value fields are editable by double click them… …right click in Attribute form opens up a settings menu… 56

E

E3D Model – Hierarchy

T

This session ends here… You have now learned: -

to login E3D with a user name and password… what E3D stands for and where it fits within the work process basic knowledge of the E3D user interface Add/Remove objects to the E3D graphical view Search for objects based on name E3D Hierarchy and Model organisation To understand Positioning and Orientation With Respect To… make measurements Query/manipulate attributes

The next session(s) will be specifically related to your working discipline
