What's New in PDS Export

The following changes have been made to the PDS Export guide.
Version 2014 R1 (10.1)
 This is a new document for this release.

12 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

SECTION 1

Export to PDS Workflow

You can export the following model data from Smart 3D to Plant Design System (PDS):
 Equipment
 Piping
 HVAC
 Structure
You must have a S3P license key installed on the SmartPlant License Server to use PDS
Export.

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 13

Export to PDS Workflow

Exporting Model Data from Smart 3D

Transferring model data from Smart 3D to PDS involves the following:

Export Settings (on page 21)

Exporting Labels from Smart 3D to PDS (on page 27)
Extract or Update a Hierarchy Mapping File (on page 27)
Edit Hierarchy Mapping Workbook (on page 29)
Generate a PDS Project Configuration File (on page 31)
Export Smart 3D Models (on page 32)

Preparing PDS for Import

To get PDS ready to receive data from Smart 3D, you need to:

Create the PDS Project (on page 33)

Define Matching Reference Data (on page 34)
Define Matching Model Seed Files (on page 34)
Create FrameWorks Plus Subprojects (on page 34)

14 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Export to PDS Workflow

Importing Data into PDS

Create Models from ASCII Files (on page 37)

Import Structural Data into FrameWorks Plus (on page 38)
Reference Equipment Models to Piping Models (on page 40)
Run Piping Model Builder (on page 40)

Points to Consider
Reference Data and Catalog Data
 The catalog data must be the same for both Smart 3D and PDS for the export to yield
correct results. For more information, see Define Matching Reference Data (on page 34).

Piping
 Stock parts in Smart 3D which do not meet the minimum pipe length criteria in PDS, result in
a piping placement error after importing.
 You must resolve all Smart 3D To Do List items before exporting. Unresolved To Do List
items can cause unexpected results in PDS. For example, pipe bends modeled incorrectly in
Smart 3D might result in irrelevant graphics when imported.
 The number of pipelines created in PDS by the export process might be higher than the
number of pipe runs exported from Smart 3D.
 The pipe part symbols and their default orientation should be same in Smart 3D and PDS.
 When you export spectacle blinds to PDS without setting the base part of the spectacle blind
feature to either spectacle blind is in open position or spectacle blind is in closed
position, the software creates an open blind in PDS by default.

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 15

Export to PDS Workflow

 Flex pipe from Smart 3D are exported to PDS as specialty items. To map the Smart 3D
identifier value of this pipe part with PDS Model Code in the
SP3DIdentifierPDSModelCodeMap worksheet, SP3D Identifier value should be defined by
S3D short code value followed by "_FlexPipe".

Dimensional Data Mapping

 For a Smart 3D piping specialty or instrument, you must define or create a corresponding
specialty symbol in PDS. The symbol must be designed so that any dimensional data (DIM1,
DIM2,and so on through DIMn) required to place the piping specialty or instrument in PDS
can be mapped to the attribute data on the Smart 3D specialty object.
 You must map the Smart 3D specialty tag or part number of the piping specialty or
instrument to corresponding PDS commodity names in the
SP3DIdentifierPDSModelCodeMap worksheet in the mapping file.
 Map the tutorial form name for the piping specialty or instrument to the TUT attribute in the
DimensionalDataMapMap worksheet. Map the rest of the dimensions to appropriate
Interface.Attribute values. You must refer to the symbol definitions in both Smart 3D and
PDS to decide which dimension to map to which Interface.Attribute.
 The following figure is an example of dimensional-data mapping for the piping specialty
STRB1 (Basket Strainer) which is mapped to the CSBasketStrainer4 specialty in Smart 3D.

The tutorial form that accepts the dimensional data input for STRB1 is PSA018.fb.
DIM1=Dimension A, which is equal to the CollarThickness attribute available on the
IJUASpecialtyStrainer interface of the CBastketStrainer specialty in Smart 3D.
Similarly ,
DIM2=Dimension B = BasketLength attribute on the IJUASpecialtiyStrainer interface,
DIM3=Dimension C = BasketEndDiameter attribute on the same interface,
DIM4=Dimension D = CollarEndToCenter attribute on the same interface.

16 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Export to PDS Workflow

Interface.Attribute must be surrounded by square braces as shown above.

Taps
 Load the taps' data into the PDS project to ensure that the taps are imported through the
APL file correctly.

Limitations when Exporting from Smart 3D to PDS

The following limitations exist when exporting Smart 3D equipment, equipment nozzles, piping,
and structure model data and then importing that data into PDS.

General
Smart 3D object names with some special characters such as € or § might not transfer as is
because the export functionality uses some of these characters for its syntax. There is chance
that names will not be same both sides.

Equipment
PDS has a 30-character limit for equipment names, so the equipment name in Smart 3D cannot
be longer than 30 characters. If the name of the equipment component is more than 30
characters, it is truncated during the export from Smart 3D.
PDS does not support duplicate names for equipment items. You must assign a unique
name for each equipment in Smart 3D. Duplicate names in Smart 3D, or duplicate names after
truncation, can cause the export process to give incorrect results.

Equipment Nozzle
PDS has a 10-character limit for nozzle names, so the nozzle component name in Smart 3D
cannot be longer than 10 characters. PDS allows for duplicate names for nozzle components, as
long as the nozzle components are assigned to two different equipment items in the same DGN
file. If the nozzle component names are the same, the export process can give incorrect results.

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 17

Export to PDS Workflow

Piping
 PDS has a 20-character limit for piping component/support names, so the piping
component/support name in Smart 3D cannot be longer than 20 characters. If the name of
the piping component/support is more than 20 characters in Smart 3D, it is truncated during
export. Similarly, piping specialty and instruments are limited to 30 characters and will also
be truncated if needed. PDS allows for duplicate names for piping, support components, and
instruments and specialties.
 If an equipment or nozzle name is not defined in Smart 3D, the connection between any pipe
run and that pipe nozzle is lost when the model is exported to PDS. In this situation, the pipe
run starts from the connect point (the East, North, and Elevation coordinates) of the nozzle
port without having any connection.
 PDS does not support modeling of circular piping. Because of this, circular stock parts are
skipped. The software writes an entry in the log file for each circular stock part.
 Do not export pipelines with both imperial and metric specifications to the same APL file.
 Supports that are placed at a location other than the elbow connect points are exported as
connected to the elbow's center.
 Only the specification driven attributes for pipes are transferred to sloped pipe runs.
 To construct pipes on the sloped pipe segments, import the APL file and then enable the
Automated Placement in PDS.
 In Export Smart 3D to PDS application, insulation thickness is valid only when you define the
insulation purpose. Define the insulation purpose in Smart 3D before you export the
insulation data using Export Smart 3D to PDS application.
 You can define insulation in at run level and at the component level in Smart 3D. By default,
the same insulation data is applicable to components. The export process exports only the
insulation data at run level. The component level insulation is ignored. However, in case of
Instruments and Specialties, the component level insulation is considered.
 The Commodity Names sheet in the hierarchy mapping file maps the Smart 3D short code
SP3D Value and PDS commodity names short code PDS Value. To export turn features
such as Elbow, Bend, Miter, and so on, append <_PIPE TURN TYPE> to the SP3D Value.
For example, to export an Elbow with a short code 45 Degree Direction Change, the
SP3D Value is 45 Degree Direction Change_ELBOW.
 The Export to PDS software exports all the S3D piping supports to PDS as logical supports.
 PDS does not support feature breaks on the pipe stock parts. Feature breaks are skipped
and the following message is added to the log file for each feature break:
Feature breakdown is not supported in PDS, hence exporting it as stock part.
 The software exports flex pipes from Smart 3D as specialty items.
 Equipment piping nozzles are exported with connect point information. However, all other
nozzles are exported as dumb graphics. HVAC nozzles are not exported.
 The Smart 3D sequence number attribute on pipe runs is not exported to PDS. This can be
achieved by label mapping.

18 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Export to PDS Workflow

Structure
 FrameWorks Plus has a 24-character limit for all structure components, including beams,
slabs, columns, vertical and horizontal braces, walls, and arc members. If the name of the
structure component in Smart 3D is more than 24 characters, it is truncated during export.
FrameWorks Plus allows for duplicate names for structural components.
 Slabs and solids are limited to 95 vertices (placement defining points).
 Openings are not supported on linear or arc members.
 FrameWorks Plus supports only circular arc members. Arc members that are created by
elliptical arcs are not supported.
 FrameWorks Plus supports only slabs or slab openings that are created by circular, elliptical,
and linear elements.
 Smart 3D does not export assembly connections to the CIS/2 file. Therefore, connection
details and assembly connections are not imported into FrameWorks Plus.

Configure the PDS Export Initialization File

The PDSExportTranslator.ini file controls the export of Smart 3D model data to PDS. You can
modify the default values to suit your specific project requirements.
1. In Windows Explorer, browse to the [Product
Folder]\Smart3D\3DRefData\SharedContent\Data\Translators\S3DPDSExport folder.
2. Open the PDSExportTranslator.ini file, and modify the options as required.
3. Save your changes.

 You can edit this file in Smart 3D using File > Export > PDS Export > Export Settings.
 SharedContent is delivered in the reference data setup.

PDS Export Initialization File Options

The PDSExportTranslator.ini file is divided based on the discipline, such as equipment, piping,
and so on. Each section contains a specific set of default options that are used during export.

GLOBALS
In general .ini options in the global section are applicable to all disciplines. The following options
are used for setting the symbology for aspects of the following disciplines.
 Equipment
 HVAC
 Structure
Type the aspect name using the prefix “ASPECT_”

Exporting Smart 3D HVAC Attributes to PDS

Unlike Equipment and Piping, HVAC does not have equivalent PDS classes to which you can
map the Smart 3D class when you export the attributes. All the attributes of Duct parts and Duct
components (with some limitations) are written directly to a .drv file. While writing attributes to
the .drv file, the software reads the Property mapping file (SP3DPDSExport.xls) to process the
attributes.

CLASS MAP
The Smart 3D classes CPDuctOccur (DUCT) and CPRteDuctComponentOcc
(DUCT_COMPONENTS) are mapped to the virtual class HVACDrv.
HVACClassMap:

ATTRIBUTE MAP:
All the attributes to export to PDS are mapped in attribute mapping sheets, such as the
HVACDuctPartAttrsMap and HVACDuctComponentAtrsMap sheets. PDS attribute columns

24 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Preparing Smart 3D for Export

have HVACDrv.AttributeName. HVACDrv indicates that this is an attribute in the virtual class
HVACDrv.

You must map the corresponding PDS attribute name in the sheets to write the correct PDS
attribute name against the Smart 3D value in the .drv file.
Example:
If Smart 3D has the attribute name IsInsulated. and you want to see the attribute name as
hasInsulation in the .drv file, then you must map the attribute as show below:

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 25

Preparing Smart 3D for Export

The generated .drv file with the DRMS linkage looks as follows:

 Because the HVAC export is not intelligent. The properties of the HVAC components can be
reviewed, but they cannot be revised in PDS.
 Label mapping can also be applied to map any PDS attribute to the corresponding Smart 3D
attribute.
For more information about creating label mapping, see Exporting Labels from Smart 3D to PDS
(on page 27).

26 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Preparing Smart 3D for Export

Exporting Labels from Smart 3D to PDS

Labels let you get the attribute values of direct or related objects in Smart 3D.
Export to PDS supports the mapping of labels so that you can transfer attributes of direct or
related objects to their PDS-equivalent attributes.
The following steps illustrate exporting properties from the related catalog part of Smart 3D to
PDS. You can also use this workflow to export user-defined attributes to PDS.
1. In the Smart 3D Catalog task, create a label that gives a property of the related object.
For more information about creating labels, see Label Editor Command in the Catalog
User's Guide. You can access this document using the Help > Printable Guides command
in the software.
2. Open the specific mapping sheet in the S3DPDSExport.xls workbook.
By default, this workbook is delivered to the [Reference Data
Folder]\SharedContent\Data\Translators\S3DPDSExport folder.
3. Map the SP3D Attribute to the corresponding PDS Attribute by typing the label name in
the SP3D Attribute column.
4. Type TRUE in the Label column.

5. If the Smart 3D attribute is a code list, then you must provide the value in the Value column.
The value must realize the label property and must be in the format
[InterfaceName.AttributeName]. Be sure to add the respective code list sheet hyperlink and
valuedef in the maptype column.

6. Save the workbook.

Extract or Update a Hierarchy Mapping File

 Close the mapping workbook that you need to update before you run Extract/Update
Hierarchy Mapping.
 Define your workspace before exporting.

1. Click File > Export > PDS Export > Export Model.
The Export to PDS dialog box displays.

5. Click Extract/Update Hierarchy Mapping File.
6. Review the log file for any errors or warnings.

Export Structural Hierarchy from Smart 3D to PDS

To export the Smart 3D structural hierarchy to PDS:
1. In the Smart 3D Structure task, create structural objects in the needed hierarchy on the
System tab of the Workspace Explorer.
For more information about creating structure, see the Structure User's Guide.
2. Click File > Export > PDS Export > Export Model.
The Export to PDS dialog box displays.
3. On the Export Hierarchy tab, select the Structure discipline from the Discipline list.
4. In the Hierarchy Mapping File box, type the location of the S3DPDSExport.xls mapping
file, or browse to the location. This workbook is delivered to the [Reference Data
Folder]\SharedContent\Data\Translators\S3DPDSExport folder.
5. Type the location of the log file in the Log File box, or browse to the location.
6. Click Export/Update Hierarchy Mapping File.
The structural hierarchy for members, slabs, and slab openings is exported to the
StructureHierarchy mapping sheet in the S3DPDSExport.xls workbook.
The structural hierarchy for footings, foundations, walls, wall openings, and traffic structural
objects is exported to the StructuralEquipmentHierarchy mapping sheet in the
S3DPDSExport.xls workbook.

 Footings, foundations, walls, and traffic structural objects are exported using a .dgn
equipment file. Other structure is exported using a CIS/2 .stp file.
 You must define design file names in both mapping sheets to create the .dgn files in PDS.
 When generating the PDS project configuration file, you must define the FWP Sub Project
number for structure. In addition, you can customize the Model_Type in the PDS model
creation ASCII configuration file based on this requirement. By default Model_Type is both
and allowable values are propagated and both.

28 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Preparing Smart 3D for Export

Edit Hierarchy Mapping Workbook

Define the following columns in the hierarchy mapping workbook
 Area Name
 Area Description
 Model Name
 Model Description
Defined area names and model names are used to generate a PDS project configuration file.
This file creates the defined areas and models in PDS.
Area Name - Type up to ten characters for the name of the design area to be created or
defined. You can use the underscore (_) character, capital letters (A-Z), lowercase letters (a-z),
and numbers (0-9) in design area names. Design area names must not contain embedded
spaces or other special characters such as, but not limited to, ^&#%$. The name must be
unique across disciplines (for example, Area Name: Piping_A).
If you specify an area name for one system but do not specify the area name for subsequent
systems, then the software uses the same area name for all systems.
Area Description - Type up to 40 characters for this required description of the design area you
are creating. If you do not define a value, the Area Name is used as the default description (for
example, Area Desc: Piping Area A).
Model Name - Type up to ten characters for the name of the design file to create or define. You
can use the underscore (_) character, capital letters (A-Z), lowercase letters (a-z), and numbers
(0-9) in model names. Model names must not contain embedded spaces or other special
characters such as, but not limited to, ^&#%$. The name must be unique across the project (for
example, Model Name: Model_A).
Model Description - Type an optional 40 character description of the model to create. If you do
not define a value, then Model Name is used as the default description (for example, Model
Desc: Model A Description).

 For successful creation of areas and models using Create Model Data From ASCII File in
PDS, we suggest that you use the first three letters of the discipline followed by a number
(for example, for piping, Area Name: Pip1). Specify the model name as the area name
followed by the character 'M' and a number (For example, Model Name: Pip1M1).
 The number of objects column in the hierarchy mapping sheet helps to define the number
of models.
 Cautiously define the models so that the total number of objects that go into each model is
less than or equal to the object limit per model (for equipment -
NumberOfEquipmentsPerModel, for piping - NumberOfPipeLinesPerModel) in the
configuration (.ini) file. For more information, see Configure the PDS Export Initialization File
(on page 23).
MicroStation does not support DGN or SAT files that are more than 32 MB in size. If a SAT
file is larger than 32 MB, split the SAT file into smaller components.
If the number of objects exceeds the objects limit per model in the configuration file,
then the software creates a suitable number of models to accommodate all the objects and
logs the information in the log file.

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 29

Preparing Smart 3D for Export

Example:
If the Hierarchy mapping file specifies that 100 equipment objects should go into eqp1M1,
and the configuration file has NumberOfEquipmentsPerModel defined as 20, then four
design files are created with the names eqp1M1_1, eqp1M1_2, eqp1M1_3, eqp1M1_4.
Additionally, the first twenty objects (sorted by creation date) are exported to eqp1M1, the
next twenty objects to eqp1M1_1, and so on.

Exports or updates a hierarchy for Smart 3D systems to the hierarchy mapping file.
For example, if you want to export Equipment, this command finds the object ID for each system
that contains equipment objects, finds those equipment objects, and exports or updates that
hierarchy to the mapping file.
 A sheet named EquipmentHierarchy in the mapping file is updated with the hierarchy of the
Smart 3D systems for the equipment discipline.
 In the same way, worksheets for each discipline are updated at the time of hierarchy export.
The PipingHierarchy, RaceWaysHierarchy, StructureHierarchy, and HVACHierarchy
sheets are updated for their respective disciplines.
 For piping, the pipeline systems, the OID and number of pipe runs under that system are
exported to the hierarchy mapping file.

Create the PDS Project

Before you can export your data from Smart 3D to PDS, you must create and configure a PDS
receptacle project. Please reference these PDS documents if you need help creating a project:
 Plant Design System (PDS) Project Setup Technical Reference
 Plant Design System (PDS) Express Project Creation
When creating your PDS project, keep these items in mind:
 We recommend that you use metric projects or mixed projects with the metric system of
units as the model units.

Piping
 The software exports insulation thickness data in Nominal Piping Diameter, or NPD, system
of units. Create models for the piping discipline such that the insulation thickness uses the
NPD system of units.
 For instruments and specialties, the dimensional data is exported in metric units.

Equipment
 Insulation thickness is shown in model units.
 Because traffic items (stairs, ladders, and handrails) are exported as equipment to
equipment .dgn files, the same settings must be applied while creating .dgn files to export
traffic items in the structural discipline.
 For equipment nozzles, NPD data is exported per model settings using the NPD
Equivalence rule. This rule must be the same for both Smart 3D and PDS.

Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide 33

Preparing PDS for Import

 The software exports all other data in metric units. We recommend that the physical units on
the PDS project are set to SI units to avoid conflicts between the exported property value
and related unit type.

Define Matching Reference Data

The reference data between Smart 3D and PDS must match. The easiest way to accomplish
this is to use SmartPlant Reference Data (licensed separately) to maintain your reference data.
In doing so, you can export your reference data to both the Smart 3D format and the PDS
format, ensuring that they match.
Examples of reference data issues that you must consider (this is not a complete list):
 Your piping specifications must match between Smart 3D and PDS. Smart 3D and PDS use
different default schemes so you will need to adjust one application's commodity codes to
match the other.
 Structural material and material grades have different names. You will need to add the
material and material grades to the FrameWorks Plus data files before you import structure.
For more information, see CIS2Import.ma (on page 38).
 Structural cross-section names might have different names. You will need to create a
mapping file of cross-section names before you import. For more information, see
CIS2Import.ma (on page 38).

Define Matching Model Seed Files

You need to look at the seed models that you have defined in PDS to verify they meet your
needs. For more information, see Plant Design System (PDS) Project Setup Technical
Reference and Plant Design System (PDS) Project Administrator.

Create FrameWorks Plus Subprojects

You must create any FrameWorks Plus subprojects that you want through PD Shell.
To avoid creating models with incorrect working unit settings, adjust the working unit
settings of FrameWorks Plus seed files after creating the projects, and before creating models.
The first step in using FrameWorks Plus with PDS is to integrate existing FrameWorks Plus
projects into a PDS project or to create a FrameWorks Plus project in the PDS project. If the
FrameWorks Plus project already exists, only database entries are created in the "pd_project-
database" in pdtable_116.
The total path length to the FrameWorks Plus project including the drive letter and the
required \'s is limited to 36 characters.
FrameWorks Project Number - Specifies the FrameWorks Plus project name (the top-level
project directory that appears in the Windows Explorer). This string can contain letters and/or
numbers but no other special characters except the underscore (_) character. Names are limited
to 14 characters.
FrameWorks Project Name - Type a description for the project.

34 Export Smart 3D to PDS User's Guide

 Preparing PDS for Import

FrameWorks File Directory - Type the full path to the directory where you want to store the
project. Make sure you do not duplicate the project name in this path.
For example:
FrameWorks Plus Project Number: fwstr
-AND-
FrameWorks Plus File Directory: c:\pds_proj_dir\project
Will give you:
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\data
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\drw
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\esl
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\frz
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\int
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\mod
c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\rpt
Entering an extra \fwstr on the end of the FrameWorks Plus File Directory name could
complicate the directory structure. If you key in c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr for the directory
name and fwstr for the Number, you will get c:\pds_proj_dir\project\fwstr\fwstr for the final
FrameWorks Plus Subproject directory name.
FrameWorks Network Address - Specifies the computer on which the FrameWorks Plus
project is located. Enter the computer's name.
Force Units - Specifies the force units to use by default for the member loads placed in this
project. The force units are stored in the Standard Note Library List 1640.
Standard Section Table - Specifies the standard section table to use by default for models
created in this project. There are several standard section tables delivered with FrameWorks
Plus. The standard section table location is read from the ..\fwplus\data\config.dat file.
User Section Table - Specifies the user section table to use by default for models created in
this project.

Create Models from ASCII Files

From a command prompt window, you need to create the areas, models, and database tables
using the ASCII file that you created in Generate a PDS Project Configuration File (on page 31).
A new executable called c:\win32app\ingr\pdprojec\bin\pds3dmdls.exe combines the existing
Create Model from ASCII and Create Database Tables commands. This executable does not
require Intergraph Batch Services to run. The executable writes a log file named s3dcrtmdl.log in
the $TEMP directory. The cmdlasci.log and crtmodel.rep log files are also written in the $TEMP
directory.
The Create Model from ASCII command creates the HVAC design file from the PEHVAC
product seedfiles, aecseed.dgn and aecseedm.dgn, depending on the system of units in the
project when creating the models requested by Smart 3D. The command will not create the
HVAC files when run from inside PD Shell.

Import Structural Data into FrameWorks Plus

Smart 3D exports structural designs using two different file formats:
 .cis2 - Exports basic structural elements, such as member systems, slabs, and slab
openings. The software exports the data to a CIS2 file according to the hierarchy mapping in
the StructureHierarchy sheet. You can import this file into FrameWorks Plus with
CIS2Import.ma (on page 38).
 .dgn - Exports other structural object data, such as stairs, ladders, handrails, footings,
foundations, walls, and wall openings. The software exports the data to a DGN file according
to the hierarchy mapping in the StructuralEquipmentHierarchy sheet.

 You can review wall properties in the same way that you view equipment properties.
 To review wall opening properties, set the current level to match the level to which you are
exporting wall openings.

CIS2Import.ma
The ..\FWPlus\bin\CIS2Import.ma application imports a CIS/2 .stp file into FrameWorks Plus.
When you import structural data with a CIS2 file, the structural catalog data must match in the
exporting application and FrameWorks Plus. If the structural data does not exist in FrameWorks
Plus, the FrameWorks Plus creates objects using the model default data as defined in Settings
> Defaults in FrameWorks Plus.

Material
Materials are defined in the ..\fwplus\data\material.dat file. This is a standard ASCII file that you
can edit to add your own custom materials for both members and fireproofing. Be sure to make
a backup copy of the material.dat file before you make your edits. You also need to keep a
backup of the file in case you have to re-load FrameWorks Plus.
Do not edit or re-order the first eight entries in the material.dat file. Use only spaces
between the material index number and the material name. Tabs or other hidden spacing
characters can cause problems for FrameWorks Plus when reading the file.

Material Grade
Steel and concrete grades from Britain, Canada, Eurocodes 2 and 3, French, and U.S.A. as well
as U.S.A fireproofing material grades are delivered. If you plan on using plastic, aluminum,
timber, or custom materials, you need to add the grade information to the
..\fwplus\data\grade.dat file yourself. This is a standard ASCII file. Be sure to make a backup
copy of the grade.dat file before you make your edits. You also need to keep a backup of the file
in case you have to re-load FrameWorks Plus.

 Importing Data into PDS

Use only spaces between entries in the grade.dat file. Tabs or other hidden spacing
characters can cause problems for FrameWorks Plus when reading the grade.dat file. In
addition, do not use spaces in the grade name.
FrameWorks Plus tracks the unit of each grade in the grade.dat file. If you use an English unit
grade in a metric model or a metric unit grade in an English model, FrameWorks Plus
automatically converts the density values to the correct units for the model to ensure correct
MTO reports.
English grades are defined in ksi for f'c, Fy, and Fu and lbs/ft3 for density. Metric grades are
defined in N/mm2 for f'c, Fy, and Fu and kg/m3 for density. You must define custom grades in
these units for FrameWorks Plus to properly convert grade values when needed.

Cross-Sections
The Utilities > Create Mapping File command creates an ASCII mapping file for the model's
active section table and 3rd party application. Many times, FrameWorks Plus and 3rd party
applications use different names for the exact same section. The mapping file solves the naming
conflicts by mapping section names in FrameWorks Plus to section names in the other
applications.
This command creates a mapping file for the model's active section table and 3rd party
software. The mapping file is named after the active 3rd Party Software and the active section
table and is created in the project\int directory with a .fmf extension. For example,
aisc_GTSTRUDL.fmf is the map file for the AISC table to GTSTRUDL section names. You need
to create a mapping file for each section table/application combination you plan to use.
The mapping file created by this command is a template. FrameWorks Plus does
write known-to-be-different section names to the mapping file. However, you are responsible for
verifying, editing, updating, and maintaining the 3rd party application section names in the file.

Mapping File Format

The mapping file is an ASCII formatted file with six columns of information. Each column must
be separated by at least one space or tab character Comment lines should start with an
exclamation point (!). Lines are limited to 132 characters in length. The last line in the file must
contain the word FINISH in the first column.
 Column 1 -- Indicates the section type (channel, angle, and so forth) or contains an
exclamation point if it is a comment line. The section indicators are: 1 - I-section; 2 -
Channels; 3 - Angles; 4 - Tees; 5 - Double Angles; 6 - Double Channels; 7 - Rectangular
Tubes; 8 - Rectangular Solids; 9 - Pipes; 10 - Solid Rounds; 11 - NOT USED; 12 -
Trapezoidal; 13 - Inverted Tees; 14 - Inverted Angles; 15 - Joist; 16 - Half Joists; and 17 -
Arbitrary Sections.
 Column 2 -- Should always contain the letters FWP.
 Column 3 -- Contains the name of the section as it is called in FrameWorks Plus.
 Column 4 -- Should always contain the letters ANL.
 Column 5 -- Contains the name of the section table in the 3rd party application. If the 3rd
party application does not require the section table name, the word DUMMY should be used.
 Column 6 -- Contains the name of the section as it is called in the 3rd party application. It is
your responsibility to edit the section name in this column to match the section name in the
3rd party software.

Hierarchy Translation Maps

Use the hierarchy translation mapping sheets in the S3DPDSExport.xls workbook to generate
PDS hierarchy attributes in the same order as Smart 3D hierarchy properties.
Before importing the S3DPDSExport.xls, you must extract the Smart 3D system
hierarchy. The extracted hierarchy sheets have all Smart 3D systems hierarchy under the
HierarchyHeader, S3DSystemName, OID, and ObjectCount in the same order as in Smart 3D
Workspace Explorer. After extracting Smart 3D hierarchy, you need to specify the area and
model information for PDS objects corresponding to those from Smart 3D. An ASCII file is
generated with the updated hierarchy sheet information when you export. The generated ASCII
file emulates the hierarchy of Smart 3D in PDS when imported.
