Axial and Lateral Offset
The Axial lateral offset Excel sheet contains information for the support axial and lateral offsets. The sheet specifies the port names related to the parts that can be rotated when the axial or lateral offset is applied. The offset is used to move the Top sub-assembly around the pipe at the port, as defined in the axial lateral offset sheet. An empty sheet indicates that both axial and lateral offsets are permitted. You can add certain parts and port names with constraints, such as only axial offset, only lateral offset, or none.
Axial and Lateral Offset Sheet Design
AxLatData.xls is the axial and lateral offset workbook and includes the following columns:
Name - Specifies a unique name for the offset.
PartClassName - Specifies the catalog part class name.
PortName1 - Specifies the first port name of the part class.
PortName2 - Specifies the second port name of the catalog part class.
Axial - Specifies whether the axial offset is allowed. 0 = Not Allowed and 1 = Allowed.
Lateral - Specifies whether the lateral offset is allowed. 0 = Not Allowed and 1 = Allowed.
Example of Axial and Lateral offsets
Each rod hanger has two ports for the axial and lateral offsets. To specify a constraint on the rod hanger, add two port data rows to define the axial and lateral settings in the AxLatData.xls Excel workbook.
The following graphic illustrates axial and lateral offsets with extra ports.
