z Easy configuration
AVEVA E3D can be quickly configured to suit
specific company or project requirements in
areas including:

- data structures
- access rights
- design status controls
- consistency checking rules
- report and drawing formats.

Configurations can be applied at project level,

enabling compliance with different clients’
requirements on individual concurrent projects.
Designers can review and respond to comments and other feedback coming from AVEVA E3D
Company or project-specific procedures and Insight™ users at the construction site
workflows can be readily customised and
robustly enforced.

A built-in macro language, PML, together with

a .NET API, provide almost unlimited flexibility
in creating custom functionalities to increase
efficiency and build valuable proprietary
expertise.

z Marine capabilities
AVEVA E3D is able to work alongside AVEVA
Marine™ on projects, making a fully clashable
and drawable hull model available to AVEVA E3D
users. Inside AVEVA E3D’s DRAW module it is
also possible to create Hull Symbolic Views. This
means that AVEVA E3D is an ideal partner for any
marine project.

z Integration of laser scan data into the design

Hull data in the 3D view
environment
This powerful enabling technology offers dramatic
efficiency gains on both greenfield and brownfield
projects. When designing modifications to existing
assets, new designs can be accurately aligned to
tie-in points, and clashes between the new and
existing construction eliminated.

Laser scans of individual fabrications, modules

or the current status of the as-built site, can
be rapidly imported for verification against the
design model. Non-compliances can be resolved
to protect the project schedule, and the design
model can be progressively updated to accurately
reflect the true as-built construction.

This offers significant benefits. To the project, by

aligning new design to the as-built at every stage;
and to the client, by providing a reliable design
model for the asset’s life-cycle management.

capability creates a direct connection to the centralised
Digital Asset repository (if available). When an object is
selected in AVEVA E3D, the Context panel dynamically
updates a list of available content relevant to the selection,
such as datasheets, vendor documentation, purchase
orders, planning charts and calculation sheets. This content
can then be opened, in context to the selected object, via
a new embedded universal viewer, ensuring decisions are
made on the basis of all available information.

Drawings can be automatically generated from the 3D model

z Optimum use of design automation and rules
AVEVA E3D features extensive capabilities for design
automation through the configuration of rules. These
rules respect engineering boundaries and access rights.
They provide the productivity advantages of rule-based
design automation while ensuring that design authority for
changes remains with the relevant responsible disciplines.
If a non-compliant design feature is created, the system
highlights and explains the non-compliance until it is
corrected. It permits a designer to create a provisional,
non-compliant feature as an interim step in the process of
refining a compliant overall design. An additional benefit of
this approach is that less experienced designers can rapidly Automatically-produced pipe support drawing
increase their skills by ‘learning while doing’.

Automatic routing of pipes and cable trays in accordance

with preconfigured rules is a popular feature in 3D design
solutions, but rarely creates an optimum design by
itself. AVEVA E3D enables a designer to switch between
automatic routing to save time on simple or repetitive
work, and intuitive manual adjustment tools to refine the
routes for a high-quality overall design.

Similarly, rules can be configured for the creation of stairs,

ladders and handrails in accordance with project standards,
while designers are provided with tools to quickly and
easily incorporate these standards-compliant structures
into the overall design. Automatic change highlighting

z Automatic cable routing

This standard feature enables instrumentation and/or
electrical cables to be automatically routed into cable
trays in accordance with preconfigured rules defining such
parameters as tray fill levels, route selection and signal/
power cable separation.

Cable definitions can be obtained from AVEVA Electrical

and AVEVA Instrumentation where used, or imported via
Microsoft Excel™ from third-party systems. Accurate cable
lengths, including any excess allowances, can be returned
in the same ways for the creation of BoMs and drumming.
Integrated engineering – compare and update between P&ID and 3D model
z Unrivalled design reuse
AVEVA E3D enables extensive sharing and reuse of data
between projects as standard. Engineering standards,
catalogues and even reference designs can be shared
between projects. This not only saves the cost and time of
unnecessary duplication, it eliminates many opportunities
for error, maximises the value of proprietary design
expertise and enables more efficient repeat projects.

z Efficient management of subcontract work packages

Subcontracting work is common practice, but requires
the ability to manage the interface with the subcontractor
and to validate their work before accepting it. AVEVA
E3D provides a unique Extract functionality that enables
a subcontractor to work independently, developing
a package of design without impact on the master
project model. Following approval of the work, it can be
automatically incorporated into the project model.

z Object-centric data management
Unlike file-based design systems, AVEVA’s
are database-driven. As designers work,
they are actually creating an object-centric
description of the entire project. Each
object, such as a valve, pump or pipe, has
associated with it an extensive quantity of
attribute and association data. The project
database so created represents a digital
asset of almost incalculable value. It not only
supports the access rights, change control,
status management, workflows and so on
required for efficient project execution, but
can also be shared with ERM, ERP and MIS
systems for efficient business management,
and can be used to populate a client’s

AVEVA E3D ultimately creates value both for

its direct users and for their clients, creating
significant competitive advantage.

z Project and discipline management tools

Configurable status reporting can be used
not only by designers in their day-to-day
work, but also by project and departmental
managers for monitoring progress and
forecasting workloads, and by discipline
managers to enforce adherence to
workflows and change control.
