Prior to importing design data from PDMS, a catalog with corresponding objects, parts, and specifications must exist in Smart 3D. For a successful import, ensure that the Smart 3D catalog meets the following criteria outlined.

Equipment Model Data

  • The Smart 3D catalog must contain the same applicable equipment shapes and nozzles that are used in the PDMS project.

  • To import catalog equipment using a mapping file, the same PDMS item must also be present in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • To import nozzles, all applicable nozzle data must exist in the Smart 3D catalog prior to import and must match the nozzle data that exists in the PDMS project.

  • You must provide mapping information for any new shape. The shape in PDMS must match the shape in Smart 3D.

Piping Model Data

  • All of the applicable piping specifications in the PDMS project must also exist in the Smart 3D catalog

  • All of the components used in the PDMS catalog must match those in the Smart 3D catalog. Component properties and dimensional data must also match between the two catalogs.

  • All applicable end preparations must be set up in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • All of the piping PCOMP or INST, with or without design parameters, in the PDMS catalog must be mapped to the specialties, instruments, and on-the-fly specialties and instruments in the Smart 3D catalog. Their dimensional data must match that of the components in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • All gaskets and welds with exact thickness must be set up and available in the Smart 3D catalog.

HVAC Model Data

  • All of the applicable HVAC specifications in the PDMS catalog must also exist in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • All of the components that are used in the HVAC specification must be present in the Smart 3D catalog and must match those in the PDMS catalog. Component properties and dimensional data must also match between the two catalogs.

Structure Model Data

  • To import the material property on a structure object, each applicable material in the PDMS catalog must be mapped to the appropriate material in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • To import PDMS members properly, you must provide mapping between PDMS member cross-sections and Smart 3D cross-sections.

  • To import PDMS members properly, you must map PDMS cardinal points to Smart 3D cardinal points.

  • To import PDMS walls properly, you must map PDMS wall SPRE and MATR to Smart 3D wall composition and cross-sections. You must also map the PDMS justification line (JUSL) to Smart 3D cardinal points.

Hangers and Support Model Data

To transfer hangers and supports by mapping, Hanger element, SCLAMP, and PCLAMP in PDMS must be mapped to corresponding Smart 3D support components. The PDMS catalog should be exactly the same as the Smart 3D catalog. Otherwise, mismatches in the geometry and orientation of the transferred support components can occur.

Electrical Model Data

  • All of the applicable cable tray specifications in the PDMS project must also exist in the Smart 3D catalog.

  • All of the components used in the PDMS catalog must match those in the Smart 3D catalog. Component properties and dimensional data must also match between the two catalogs.
