The Hexagon PPM CADWorx Structure Editor views, edits, and creates catalog data for steel libraries loaded with CADWorx Structure. The Structure Editor also imports legacy data, libraries, and Excel data tables.
Your project administrator needs to review and update the catalog (.scat) and project (.sprj) file in the Structure Editor before modeling begins.
Catalog File
Contains the materials, and data tables information for steel members in CADWorx Structure. This is a .scat file, located in [Product Folder]\Structure\Library, and can only be accessed through the Structure Editor. The catalog file works in conjunction with the project (.sprj) file to allow CADWorx Structure to build models.
The areas highlighted in red are referenced throughout this manual. Windows, such as the Catalog Data, are referenced by the window name. Please take a moment to get familiar with the interface.
The View tab is explained in Catalog View Tab.
Project File
Contains the libraries for CADWorx Structure. This is a .sprj file, located in [Product Folder]\Structure\Library, and can only be accessed through the Structure Editor. You can update these libraries by changing the base catalog attached to the project. You can also update the individual components using the Edit Component dialog box. CADWorx Structure uses the project file data when creating a model.
