CADWorx Spec Editor User's Guide Intergraph CADWorx Catalog and Specification Editor Keywords Keywords can be used in specification descriptions that allow information to be automatically inserted during placement of a component. Keywords can be used anywhere within the Tag, ‘Short Description, and Long Description fields. Keywords can also be used in the Index Code data file. Keywords are: + MAIN "RED SPEC = MAINTHK + REDTHK + LENGTH + BORE + MAINACT + REDACT + TAG + MAINDEC + REDDEC + MAINACTDEC. + REDACTDEC PIPETHK PIPETHKRED LINENUM ‘SPECINFONOMINALRATING + SPECINFOTEMPERATURE + SPECINFOPRESSURE + SPECINFOFLANGEFACE + SPECINFOPIPINGMATERIAL + SPECINFOFORGINGMATERIAL + SPECINFOFITTINGMATERIAL + SPECINFOGASKETMATERIAL + SPECINFOSTUDMATERIAL + SPECINFOBOLTMATERIAL + CWDBCODE ‘The keywords (BORE), {PIPETHK} and {PIPETHKRED} are calculated from the pipe data fle in the specification instead of the component's data file. For example, for a 4°x1" reducer, {PIPETHK) would get the values from the 4” pipe data file as listed in the specification, {PIPETHKRED} would get values from the 1” pipe data fle. A 4"x1" reducer with {MAINTHK} or {REDTHK} would get the keyword values from the reducer data file as listed in the specification Olet data files do not have any thickness values listed. Olet (MAINTHK} or {REDTHA} values are always read from the appropriate pipe data file. The {BORE} keyword is a calculation of the inside diameter of the main pipe size. Itis calculated using the following formula: {BORE} = [ (Pipe Outside Diameter of Main Size) - (2"Pipe Wall Thickness of Main Size) ] ‘Some ways in which keywords can be used are below: CADWorx Spec Editor User's Guide 9 Intergraph CADWorx Catalog and Specification Editor PIPE, (MAIN) {MAINTHK)" API-SL GR.B DSAW, PSL2 FLANGE, {MAIN} ANSI 150 RFWN {8ORE}" BORE ASTM A105, ASME B16.5 NIPPLE, PIPE {MAIN} x {LENGTH} XS ASTM A106 GR.B WELDOLET, {MAIN} (MAINTHK)" x {RED} (REDTHK}" ASTM A105, ASME B31.8 NALVE, PLUG {MAIN} ANS! 150 WE API 6D TWT {PIPETHK) API-SL GR B PIPE REG Le + GASKET, INSULATING KIT {MAIN} ANSI 600, RF, 8=(BORE}, PIKOTEK VCS WITH ZINC PLATED WASHERS, GRE INSULATING WASHERS AND SLEEVES + BOLT, STUD {MAIN} x LENGTH} ALLOY STEEL ASTM A193 CL 2A GR B7 W/2 HEX NUTS ASTM A194 CL 2B GR 2H (FOR {MAINDEC}" 150# FLG.)

Enhanced weight calculation calculates the weights of components based on the AutoCAD solid geometry, calculated by (the hollow enhanced solid volume multiplied by the component density). A manufactured component may have a larger wall thickness then the schedule requires. To make the enhanced weight calculation more accurate, SCHENCWT can be set to a larger wall thickness schedule. The Enhanced weight calculation is used anytime the WEIGHT column is 0.0 in a data table. The component drawing mode (2D Double line, 2D Single line, 3D Solid, or 3D Enhanced) does not have any effect on the weight calculation, The weight calculation is run in background using a temporary 3D enhanced AutoCAD solid when uusing 2 Double line, 2D Single line, or 3D Solid drawing mode, Weights of the following components are based on the AutoCAD Solid geometry when the WEIGHT column is 0.0 in the component data table: PIPE ‘SCH thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry ELBOWS _ [SCH thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry OLLETS [SCH thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry TEES ‘SCHENCWT thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry CAPS. ‘SCHENCWT thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry CROSSES |SCHENCWT thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry LATERALS [SCHENCWT thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry REDUCERS | SCHENCWT thickness value used to create AutoCAD solid geometry FLANGES | [Enhanced Data Table Values used to create AutoCAD solid geometry Weights of the following components are always based on the Data Table WEIGHT column: COUPLINGS GASKETS BOLTS 74 CADWorx Spec Editor User's Guide Appendix Property Descriptions WELDS SANITARY SPEC_BLIND BLEED_RING EXPANSION JOINTS ‘STRAINERS UNIONS USER_SHAPES VALVES Y_SHAPE PTN - Part Number - Value assigned to specific schedules Thickness Tables Properties ‘Table Name - Specifies the name of the table selected.

ETS controls the end type display. ETS Description In the 2012 legacy program, flanged components such as 45FL, 90FL, CONFL, ECCFL, PIPFL, TEFL, and YFL use the FLGS vatiable to control cisplaying of endtype at the ends. This variable is a bitwise flag (0, 1, 2...) and depends on the numbered connections of the component, as shown in the graphic below. oO 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 In the 2013 NG system, the data tables also have an ETS variable (Endtype bitwise flag) to control display endtypes. This is similar to the legacy FLGS variable, as shown in the graphic below. O 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 When importing, the FLGS variable is converted to the ETS variable, Otherwise a default value is set that depends on the number connection of components. For example: the value is 1 for CAPS and 15 for CROSSES. ‘Special components are used for flanged pipes. PIPFL is a special endtype component, and PIPFL2 is a flanged component. In 2D single mode, the components have different shapes. CADWorx Spec Editor User's Guide 78 Appendix Property Descriptions ‘The ETS of PIPFL is a design value of 100, 101, 102, or 103, such as ETS = 103, The design of PIPFL2_is ETS with a value of 0, 1, 2, or 3, such as ETS = 3 Caps ‘Specifies the caps properties.
