2.1.25 General Part Element (GPART)
Description:
In the existing PDMS catalogue the only element which completely describes a catalogue
element is a SPCO. This has CATR, MATX, DETA, BLTR and CMPR references to
respectively the geometry, material text, detail text, bolting details and physical properties.
However, much work could be carried out before the Specs have been created such as
conceptual design and Diagrams.
The GPART catalogue element has all the significant attributes of a SPCO but is more
permanent.
It is for use within Specon macros and has the Pseudo attribute PRTXRF which lists the
SPCO’s referencing a GPART.
An SPRE of a piping element references a GPART rather than a SPCO.

4.21 Elements in Piping Component Category
4.21.1 Attachment Point Element (ATTACHMENT)

Piping Component Element
Primary Element
Description:
The ATTACHMENT point has three main applications:
• To allow pipe HANGARS to be connected to a point in the BRANCH
• To indicate a special point on the BRANCH which can be dimensioned, labelled, etc.
• To allow forces, moments, etc. to be applied to the BRANCH during pipe stressing.
The ATTA is created, selected and consistency-checked in the same way as other
Components. However, it is ignored as an in-line fitting by the CONNECT command and is
ignored by the reporting utility when listing tube lengths.

4.23.4 Pipe Element (PIPE)

Primary Element
Description:
The PIPE is an administrative owner of one or more two-ended BRANCHes. Usually a PIPE
will include a principle BRANCH routed between two NOZZLES, with subsidiary
BRANCHes for control loops, bypasses to spare pumps etc. The PIPE contains functional
attributes of three types:
• Those which are used directly from the PIPE element (by modules such as
ISODRAFT) as a collective attribute for all the BRANCHes in the PIPE, e.g. Pipe Spec
(PSPE).
4:203 12.0
• Those which have no direct significance at PIPE level, but which are cascaded
downwards to member BRANCHes (or even Components) where they perform a
particular function, e.g. TEMPERATURE - only used by Branch for insulation, stressing
etc.
• Information attributes that can only be reported on, e.g. BUILT.

4.25.10 Loop Points Element (LOOPTS)

Primitive Element
Description:
A LOOPTS element holds a set of pointers to the individual Point (POIN) elements which
define each vertex of a Polyhedron Loop (POLOOP). These pointers are stored in the
VXREFS attribute of the LOOPTS. The POINs referenced are themselves stored under a
Polygon Point List (POLPTL) element.
The points referenced by VXREFS must be stored under a POLPTL under the relevant
POLYHE or NPOLYH. To preserve the integrity of the primitive, points stored elsewhere will
not be considered.
A POLOOP can hold multiple LOOPTS elements, each LOOPTS being limited to a
maximum of 500 POINs. The order of points round a loop is in member list order of each
LOOPTS in turn.
The INVIS logical array determines the visibility of edges. The points referenced by this
array correspond to those referenced by the VXREFS array. If the INVIS pointer is set to
False for any point (or, by default, is unset), the edge between that point and the preceding
point will be visible; if set to True, the edge will be invisible.

4.25.11 Polygon Element (POGON)

Primitive Element
Description:
This element can belong to a Polyhedron (or Ground Model) and is the definition of a face of

4.25.14 Polyhedron Face Element (POLFACE)

Primitive Element
Description:
An administrative element which holds Polyhedron Loop(POLOOP) members representing
the faces of a Solid Polyhedron (POLYHE) or Negative Polyhedron(NPOLYH). For an
unbroken face, each POLFAC will normally hold one POLOOP only, but a discontinuous
face may be represented by a POLFAC comprising two or more POLOOPs

4.25.15 Polyhedron Loop Element (POLOOP)

Primitive Element
Description:
The POLOOP represents a planar profile which defines all or part of the shape of a
Polyhedron Face (POLFAC). It is defined by a set of edges linking adjacent Point (POIN)
elements, the latter being identified by references held in a Loop Points element (LOOPTS)
owned by the POLOOP.
The order of the vertices (i.e. whether they are sequenced clockwise or anticlockwise) is
significant. The order for a loop representing a positive polyhedron face is the opposite to
that representing a negative polyhedron face. The LMIRR attribute determines whether the
face points are read from start to end of the list, or in reverse. Reversing the order changes
the loop from a positive outer boundary to a negative hole boundary, or vice versa. By
default, points listed anticlockwise correspond to a positive boundary.

4.25.17 Polyhedron Element (POLYHEDRON)

Primitive Element
Description:
This versatile element represents a 3D polyhedral volume in terms of sets of points which
define the vertices, and hence the edges, of the planar faces (POLFACs) enclosing the
volume.
Each POLFAC is defined by one or more planar Polyhedron Loops (POLOOP).Each
POLOOP is defined by a sequence of vertex positions which are identified by means of a
Loop Points element (LOOPTS). The LOOPTS comprises references to sets of Point
(POIN) elements held by administrative Polyhedron Point List (POLPTL) elements. Any
POIN which lies on a common edge between two faces will be referenced more than once
(one reference from the LOOPTS of each POLOOP which shares that POIN).
The intended use of this element is as a means of importing 3D-shape data into DESIGN
from external (non-PDMS) sources, rather than for creating polyhedra directly within
DESIGN. Such data would normally be read into DESIGN via a macro file generated
elsewhere. For this reason, there is no mechanism for creating Solid Polyhedra or their
related elements from the DESIGN applicationware.

A GENSEC can represent any component whose geometry is defined by sweeping a 2D
profile along a linear or curved path (its SPINE element). It has a uniform cross-section
along its length, defined by reference to a Catalogue Profile element. In its simplest form,
where the Spine is defined as a line between two fixed points, the GENSEC can be used as
an alternative to the SCTN element. In its more general form, where the Spine consists of a
sequence of straight and/or curved segments, it can represent curved beams, curved walls,
etc.

as well as primitive shapes, Routing Planes and Penalty Volumes. This enables, say, a rack
to be further divided into beams and columns. (See also Structure Element (STRUCTURE)
for the use of this element in designing Steelwork Structures.)

following actions:
1. Evaluate TMRRUL to find how many repeat elements required.
2. Evaluate TMRXRE to find how many repeat items currently exist.
3. If there are too few repeat elements, use TMRMAS and TMROWN to create and copy
new repeat elements. The REPCOU attribute will be set to the lowest unique value.
4:291 12.0
4. If there are too many then delete the surplus. The REPCOU attribute is used find which
elements to delete, providing the values have not been modified then the elements with
the highest values of REPCOU will be deleted.
5. Execute any rules owned by the repeat elements. Note that any rules which apply to
position and orientation attributes may be overwritten by transforms applied by the
OFFTYP methods described next.
6. Check OFFTYP attribute to see if standard repeats are to be applied. If OFFTYP
equals DELT then apply offsets in East, North and Up with DELTE, DELTN, DELTU.
If OFFTYP equal LINE then move repeat elements a distance OFFDIS in direction
OFFDIR
If OFFTYP equals RADI then rotate repeat items about an axis defined by AXIDIS and
AXIDIR by an angle DELANG with an optional offset in the direction of the axis

Introduction to Attributes
15 Introduction to Attributes
All attributes can be queried and set by the user. However, many are automatically set as a
result of commands. Only the attributes that you would normally set explicitly are described
in full. The ones that are set automatically are of interest because you can report on them.
Note that some attributes are used exclusively by PDMS modules. These are not described
here.
Attributes can be divided into two categories:
1. General attributes occur throughout the database; they are common to most
elements. For example, OWNER (every element in the Design data has an owner),
POS (position), ORI (orientation), BUILT (true or false, indicating whether it has been
constructed on site or not).
2. Special Attributes belong to particular elements or classes of elements and have
specific meanings for those elements; for example, FLOWD (flow direction) in a
Branch.
The special attributes are either self-explanatory or are explained in the context of the
element under which they appear in this chapter.
Note: Some special attributes are only used for drawing control within ISODRAFT or
DRAFT. How the settings of these attributes are applied is described in the
ISODRAFT or DRAFT Reference Manual.
In addition to their standard attributes, elements may have one or more user-defined
attributes (UDAs). These are set and used in the same way as standard attributes, except
that the UDA names are distinguished by being prefixed with a colon (:) character. For
further details, see the LEXICON Reference Manual.
15.1 Attribute Types

The following is a list of attribute types.
Name Attribute
All names start with a slash / and consist of any number of name parts separated by further
slashes. The maximum length is 51 characters. A name part consists of any string of
characters, letters, or digits, with the exception of $ or @. If the STAR command (qv) has
been used, the * character has special significance.
The names given to elements are purely for your convenience and have no meaning in the
system.
Examples: /HX42 /HX42/NOZ1 /16/23/NH4/H21/N4 /AREA3
15:1 12.0
Real Attribute
A real attribute holds a single real number (e.g. 25.5, -0.057, 25683.5, etc.). Real attributes
are generally used to store dimensions (e.g. DIAM, XLEN, etc.).
Integer Attribute
An integer attribute holds a single integer or whole number (e.g. 1, -2, 4000, etc.). Integer
attributes are used in Piping Components to identify connection points (ARRIV, LEAVE); in
Equipment Primitives to identify obstruction levels for clash detection (OBSTR); etc.
Reference Attribute
A reference attribute holds a reference to another element. The attribute holds the internal
system reference number, e.g. =12/106, and not the name of the element. Reference
attributes are used to forge logical links between elements. For example, the SPREF
attribute is used to link a Piping Component element in the Design to a Specification
Component in a Specification. Note that a reference attribute may be restricted to storing the
references of particular types of element (e.g. the SPREF reference of a Piping Component
may only contain the reference to a Specification Component element, i.e. an element of
type SPCOM). The restrictions on individual reference attributes are shown in brackets with
each attribute.
Logical Attribute
A logical attribute is either TRUE or FALSE. An example of its use is the BUILT attribute in a
Pipe which is needed to indicate whether the Pipe has been constructed on site or not.
Word Attribute
A word attribute holds a string of up to four characters. Word attributes are used, for
example, to indicate the direction of flow in a branch (FORW, BACK) etc.
String Attribute
A string attribute holds a string of up to 120 alphanumeric characters (e.g. ’HP STEAM’).
This string must be input between closing single quotes or, optionally, between vertical bars
(useful for entering imperial units, e.g. |4’6|).
Real Array Attribute

A real array attribute holds more than one real number. For example, the position attribute
(POS) consists of three real numbers and represents the X, Y and Z coordinates which
define the position of an element.
Integer Array Attribute

An integer array attribute holds more than one integer. For example, the LEVEL attribute
consists of two integers and is used to control the level range of drawing detail.
Reference Array Attribute

A reference array attribute holds more than one reference to another element. For example,
a connection reference array (CRFA) is used to hold the connection links of a four-way valve
(VFWA) or a CROSS.
15:2 12.0
Noclaim Attribute
If an attribute is set to 'noclaim' it means that the attribute can be modified without having to
claim the element. This reduces contention in specific area such as connecting branches to
equipment where a number of piping engineers can connect their branches to the same
equipment. Note that there would be no warning if two branches were connected to the
same nozzle with the last user to do a savework “winning”.
