Create new drums will create new drums in case the operation fills up all existi

ng drums and still cables are left to be assigned, otherwise, these cables will
be left untouched waiting for new drums to be created manually
Delete empty drums in case the auto assignment shuffles results in empty drums,
they will be deleted
Select all reference cables will handle all the cables of all types in the proje
ct, otherwise, only for the selected type of cable
Select all pulling areas will perform the operation for all pulling areas, other
wise, only for the selected one.
The algorithm works as follows:
Based on the defined cable set ( all reference cables, include assigned cables),
the system will organize them in an descending actual length order, from the lo
ngest cable down to the shortest, per cable type and per pulling area set, as de
fined in the check boxes options.
The system will also set the same order to the existing drums of the same refere
nce cable, starting from the drum that has the longest free cable available, to
the shortest ( free cable on drum would mean the maximum cable on drum figure
to
tal cable assigned to the drum, including spare).

SMARTPLANT LAYOUT
SmartPlant Layout is a new solution for preliminary 3D plant layout, including pr
oposal development, early design estimates, and plant layout optimization from I
ntergraph. Based on the next-generation 3D design solution, Intergraph Smart 3D, S
martPlant Layout is a standalone product extending the SmartPlant Enterprise sui
te through the addition of tools for automatic pipe routing, layout case managem
ent, and cost estimation.

SmartPlant Layout enables preliminary designs to be reused by carrying forward i


nitial layouts into detailed design without additional remodeling
saving time an
d improving design quality. Because SmartPlant Layout is built on Smart 3D archi
tecture, software administrative burden is significantly diminished in compariso
n to using standalone early design software.
STREAMLINING PRELIMINARY DESIGN
SmartPlant Layout significantly streamlines the preliminary layout design proces
s. The interface is simple to learn and use all application commands are availab
le in a single, consistent environment. We have optimized the resulting plant la
yout workflow to ensure you achieve high-quality layout options with minimal des
ign modifications by the designer.
You can initially define the location of major equipment, pipe racks, and other
important space reservation zones used by the integrated pipe autorouter, such a
s attraction, avoidance, and obstruction areas (see Figure 1). Supporting this s
tage, you can define and apply rules that monitor and enforce your design standa
rds to ensure consistency, including layout of pipes inside pipe rack volumes, a
nd minimum nozzle standout distances.
Following initial zone definition, pipe runs are either directly input by the us
er, imported from an externally created line-list spreadsheet, or derived from P
&IDs (see Figure 2). The integrated SmartPlant Layout pipe autorouter then calcu
lates and displays the lowest possible cost pipe routes for a given plant layout
and applied rules.
Case management enables the display and comparison of
results from various layouts. At any point in the preliminary design process, yo
u can generate preliminary layout drawings and review models. Similarly, SmartPl
ant Layout s advanced reporting capabilities help you create a wide variety of sta
ndard and user-defined reports, including summary bulk materials quantities for
cost estimation purposes.

INTERFACE WITH DETAILED DESIGN
All of the equipment, pipe racks, piping, and other plant objects created as par
t of the preliminary design process in SmartPlant Layout are intelligent, Smart
3D objects. SmartPlant Layout customers already using Smart 3D for detailed desi
gn enjoy the benefits of eliminating up to 90 percent of the remodeling normally
required when transitioning from
preliminary design applications and formats to detailed design.
By using SmartPlant Layout in conjunction with Smart 3D, the preliminary design
simply evolves into a more comprehensive, detailed design.
ADMINISTRATIVE SAVINGS
SmartPlant Layout supports the industry s leading commercial databases, Oracle and
Microsoft SQL Server, enabling it to be deployed in full compliance with your co
rporate database standards. Since SmartPlant Layout is based on Smart 3D technol
ogy, customers who use both products today realize significant savings through e
limination of administration overhead, reference data management, and training b
urdens.
SmartPlant Layout is an integral part of the SmartPlant Enterprise. The SmartPla
nt Enterprise suite enables you to create, capture, and maintain engineering inf
ormation and knowledge throughout a plant s life cycle, from design and build thro
ugh operations and maintenance. Enjoy improvements in operational excellence and
