1. SCOPE
This document is an appendix to the document XXXXXXX GENERAL PROCEDURE FOR
PREPARATION OF 3D CAD MODELS AND DELIVERABLES PRODUCTION and outlines the
detailed PDMS Modelling, CAD, and Engineering Database configuration for the detail design of the
project.
2. PURPOSE
The purpose of this document is to ensure that all contracting companies involved in the production
of engineering data and deliverables from CAD and Database systems maintain a consistency of
approach, with regard to scope, procedures, reference data, design reviews and final handover.
This document should be used as a reference to the more detailed project procedures which will be
issued by the involved CONTRACTOR/S.

3.1 GENERAL
CAD Computer Aided Design
3D Plant Design System. An integrated, database driven, 3D modelling tool used for
the physical plant layout of equipment, piping, civil and steel structures, electrical
Vantage PDMS cable trays, HVAC, pipe support, instrument and associated plant facilities. The
software includes clash detection, administration, reporting and document production
facilities to generate 2D drawings and isogen sketches for pipes
Multiple Databases, a group of Databases used to configure the privileges of the
MDB
users
UDA Attributes User Definable Attributes, extra PDMS Attributes available for customization
PDMS option that allows to share the project execution through Internet for
Vantage PDMS Global
concurrent engineering between COMPANY and CONTRACTOR/S
VANTAGE Plant A plant engineering application for the development of the engineering features of
Engineering (VPE) a plant in an engineering database and linked P&IDs.
Provides users with a highly effective visualisation tool and stunning realism for model

walk-troughs. Data could be sourced from PDS or PDMS
MTO Material Take Off; i.e. piping bulks.
BOM Bill of Material.
GAs General Arrangement Drawings.
CAD Co-ordinator On-project focal point for CAD related issues.
CAD Support Off project CAD support.
Engineer or Designer, from any discipline background, who uses CAD or Engineering
User Database Software on a regular basis. User in this document means a qualified
Engineer or Designer trained in the use of the design tool.
The MAIN CONTRACTOR will be responsible for creating a multi-discipline 3D PDMS model that is
to be used for the Engineering input of the entire project. All naming of the PDMS Elements is to be
in accordance with the Project Procedure. The MAIN CONTRACTOR will also be responsible for
providing CONTRACTORS with the work breakdown structure as needed for sub-dividing the PDMS
Project into MDB’s and hierarchical element of each Db/Discipline.
The PDMS -Project will be distributed to each CONTRACTOR at the first stage through the PDMS
Project Directories, at the next stages for daily synchronization, through directly access to PDMS
Global Hub Location.
- Catalogue Db’s for each Engineering Discipline: Process, Piping, Equipment, Electrical,
Instruments, Civil / Structural, HVAC, Support
- Properties Db’s for Piping Component Weight
- Lexicon Db’s for UDA attributes
- Draft Db’s for Drawing Backing Sheet and 2D Symbol Libraries
Note. The versions of the software will be confirmed at contract award and at final handover of data.
