Six rows of bolts are allowed for pipe clamp. Each row consists of different offset distance from the pipe centerline and a different quantity of bolts in the row.
Bolts can be of different configurations and spacing in the row. All of the bolts are drawn with the same size, Pin1Diameter x Pin1Length.
Row 1 is the connection bolt for clamps and generally used in Rod hangers.
-
For Rod hanger pipe clamps, the quantity of bolts in row 1 cannot be zero.
-
The left-most bolt in row 1 is the connection bolt where the port is located.
-
Rows 1 and 2 are the connection bolts for Riser clamps used in Rod hangers.
-
For Riser clamps used in Rod hangers, the quantities of bolts in row 1 and 2 cannot be zero.
The following properties are similar for all Bolt rows 1 through 6.
IJUAOffset1::Offset1
Specifies the offset of each bolt row from the pipe centerline.
-
These offsets are always positive. Rows 1, 3 and 5 are always "above" the pipe centerline and Rows 2, 4, and 6 are always "below" the pipe centerline. Do not specify negative offset values.
-
Bolt rows 2, 4, and 6 cannot be used when Angle1 is set to 360-degrees.
-
Bolts are not shown on the clamp body when Multi1Qty is set to zero.
-
If Bolt row 1 contains more than one bolt, the port is located on the left-most bolt, as shown in the drawing with points that are highlighted in red.
IJUAhsMulti1::Multi1Qty
Specifies the quantity of bolts. Bolts are not shown on the pipe clamp body when Multi1Qty is set to zero. Valid cases are shown below.
IJUAhsMulti1::Multi1LocateBy
Specifies the location of the bolts. Each bolt can be located in two ways.
1 - Relative to center of the group
2 - Relative to edge.
The exact meaning depends on the quantity of bolts. This value can be 0 (nothing), 1 (center), or 2 (Edge).
Valid cases are shown below.
IJUAhsMulti1::Multi1Location
Specifies the distance for the exact location of the bolts, depending on Multi1LocateBy and Multi1Qty. This value can be either a distance to the edge, or a center-to-center spacing. Valid cases are shown below.
