The Occurrence tab displays in a grid the equipment foundation properties that you can edit or that are automatically determined by the software at placement. The property name appears on the left side of the grid and the corresponding property value appears on the right side of the grid. If you selected more than one equipment foundation, and then selected the properties command, only the common properties between the selected equipment foundations display.

When viewing properties for a single equipment foundation, the following properties display. More properties may display depending on what you defined in the reference data. Refer to the Structure Reference Data help for more information on properties.

Category

Select the properties that you want to view for the equipment foundation. Equipment foundation properties are divided into several different categories: Standard, Weight and CG, Fabrication and Construction, and Position and Orientation. You select the category to define values for by using the Category option.

Standard

Name

Displays the name of the equipment foundation. The equipment foundation name is based on the Name Rule selection. If you want to type a new name for the equipment foundation, in the Name Rule box, select User Defined, and then type a name for the equipment foundation in the Name box.

Name Rule

Specify the naming rule that you want to use to name this equipment foundation.

  • Default Name Rule - Names the equipment foundation using the format "<equipment foundation type>-<location>-<index>" where <equipment foundation type> is what you select in the Type box on the ribbon, <location> is the global workshare location ID, and <index> is a unique index number that starts at 0001. For example, BlockEqpFndn-1-0043.

  • Unique Name Rule - Names the equipment foundation using the format "<system>-<equipment foundation type>-<location>-<index>" where <system> is the name of the parent system to which the equipment foundation belongs, <equipment foundation type> is what you select in the Type box on the ribbon, <location> is the global workshare location ID, and <index> is a unique index number that starts at 0001. For example, Structure System-BlockEqpFndn-1-0043.

  • User Defined - Select to specify the footing name yourself in the Name box.

System

Select the system to which the equipment foundation that you are placing belongs.

Block Material

Select a material for the equipment foundation. Materials are defined in the AllCommon.xls workbook or in the Catalog task.

Block Grade

Select a material grade for the equipment foundation. Material grades are defined in the AllCommon.xls workbook or in the Catalog task.

Block Length

Specifies the length of the equipment foundation.

Block Width

Specifies the width of the equipment foundation.

Block Height

Specifies the height of the equipment foundation.

Block Sizing By Rule

Set to True to allow the software to select the equipment foundation to use based on the default foundation defined for the equipment part. Set to False to enter the dimensions of the equipment foundation.

Block Edge Clearance

Specifies the clearance between the equipment and the equipment foundation.

Reporting Requirement

Specifies whether this object is reported.

Reporting Type

Specifies the reporting requirements code for the object. Valid codes are defined in Catalog in the Reporting Type select list.

Volume

Displays the volume of the equipment foundation (length ´ width ´ height).

Surface Area

Specifies the surface area of the equipment foundation (top surface plus the bottom surface plus the side surfaces × length).

Weight and CG

Displays the center-of-gravity and the weight of the selected object. The center-of-gravity locations are displayed relative to the active coordinate system along the X-, Y-, and Z-axes. The weight value that is displayed in the properties dialog is calculated as the material density multiplied by the object's solid volume. Therefore, the material of the object affects the weight value that is displayed here. Check the material assigned to the object if the weight displayed is an improbable value. For the most accurate weight calculation, use the Tools > Run Reports command.

Dry Weight

Specifies the dry weight of the object.

Dry CG X

Specifies the X-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry CG Y

Specifies the Y-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry CG Z

Specifies the Z-axis location of the dry center-of-gravity.

Dry WCG Origin

Specifies the way in which the dry weight center-of-gravity location is defined. The list is defined by the WCGOrigin codelist.

Computed

Indicates that the software calculates the origin location.

Defined

Indicates that you want to manually define the dry weight center-of-gravity location relative to the active coordinate system.

Fabrication and Construction

Fabrication Requirement

Specifies the fabrication requirement for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Fabrication Type select list in Catalog.

Rule Driven

Specifies that a rule drives the value. This is the default option. Click to switch to User Driven .

User Driven

Allows you to select a value. Click to switch to Rule Driven .

Fabrication Type

Specifies the type of fabrication for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Fabrication Type select list in Catalog.

Rule Controlled

Specifies that a rule defined for a parent property controls the value. If Rule Controlled does not display, you can select a value.

Construction Requirement

Specifies the construction requirement for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Construction Requirement select list in Catalog.

Construction Type

Specifies the type of construction for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Construction Type select list in Catalog.

Position and Orientation

East

Displays the distance of the connection point from the active coordinate system origin in the east direction. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.

North

Displays the distance of the connection point from the active coordinate system origin in the north direction. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.

Elevation

Displays the distance of the connection point above or below the active coordinate system origin. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.

Bearing

Displays the bearing angle for the shape. This angle sets the reference on the object to the X-axis of its local coordinate system. The local X-axis is the default axis of primary symmetry for all symbols in the catalog. This option sets the reference in the model to the active coordinate system North axis. The bearing measurement direction is clockwise from the active coordinate system north looking in the negative active coordinate system direction. That is, down from 0 to 360 degrees. You can enter negative bearing angles, but the software will automatically convert them to the positive equivalents. If the pitch is set to +/- 90 degrees, then the bearing measure displays 0 degrees. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.

Pitch

Displays the pitch angle for the shape. This angle sets the reference on the object to the X-axis of its local coordinate system. This option sets the reference in the model to a line that is the intersection of the vertical plane through the X-axis of the local coordinate system and the active coordinate system horizontal plane. The angle is measured in the positive direction from the horizontal plane in the active coordinate system up direction regardless of the current bearing. Pitch angles are limited to between -90 degrees and +90 degrees with 0 indicating horizontal. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.

Roll

Displays the roll angle for the shape. This angle sets the reference on the object to the Y-axis of its local coordinate system. This option sets the reference in the model to a line that is perpendicular to the local coordinate system x axis and in the horizontal plane. Roll angles are measured clockwise from horizontal to the y-axis of the local coordinate system. The roll angle is between 0 and 360 degrees. You can enter negative roll angles, but the software will automatically convert them to the positive equivalents. If the pitch is set to +/- 90 degrees, then the reference in the model is the North axis. You can change this value when the equipment foundation is placed by point, whereas when placed by equipment, it will be set to read only.
