Using 3D software you can model all the piping, equipment, civil/structural, electrical, instrumentation, HVAC &
safety components involved in the project.
The actual plant which is going to be constructed at site is developed at the design contractor engineering office
using a 3D software.
3D model helps the design contractor to conduct timely review sessions with the client team to check if the design
work is carried out fulfilling the below aspect as per project specification.

3D model facilitates to carry out clash checks for the different discipline involved in the project.
3.
3D model has the facility to extract material take-off for all disciplines form the model which can be utilised for
procurement.
4.
3D model is used to produce Equipment layout, Piping Layout & Support layout drawings which will be issued to site for
construction.
5.
With 3D model you can extract isomeric for piping lines which are issued to site for construction, GRE or Lined pipe
vendor for his design & stress analysis.
6.
Drawing for individual support for piping, trays & ducts can be extracted for the model.
7.
Also from some 3D software, model file for stress critical lines can be generated which can be directly imported in
CAESAR II software to carry out the stress analysis for those particular lines.
To create 3D model, there are different softwares available. Below listed are some popular ones:
