Intergraph Smart 3D 2016
WHAT’S NEW IN INTERGRAPH SMART™3DIntergraph®is consolidating its market-leading, next-generation plant, offshore,and materials handling design solutions, SmartPlant®3D, SmartMarine®3D, andSmartPlant 3D Materials Handling Edition, into a single solution called IntergraphSmart™3D. Smart 3D technology delivers the highest level of productivity of anysolution available today.SINGLE APPLICATIONSmart 3D provides multi-industry capabilities in a single application. Combining thefunctionality for ship/offshore projects and materials handling with those of onshoreplant design, Smart 3D represents the most comprehensive solution for intelligent 3Ddesign. Since all the data is stored in a single database, concurrent engineering in oneor multiple locations is achieved via robust and flexible data replication technology fromMicrosoft®or Oracle. A consistent, workflow-oriented user interface designed to be intuitive and discoverable makes Smart 3D easy to learn, allowing quick ramp-up of eventhe largest projects.PRODUCTIVITY IMPROVEMENTSSmart 3D includes several enhancements aimed at boosting productivity, such as:•Extended Model Data Reuse (MDR) capabilities now support marine structural objects, pipe spec mapping, and drawing reuse.•Improved performance and reduced administrative overhead for global workshare forOracle users via Oracle GoldenGate.•Full integration of Intergraph’s powerful Batch Services technology, includingcentral administration of both local and piped queues.•Spec-driven duct modeling to ensure HVAC and industrial duct systemsare compliant with company practice and applicable engineering standards.•Improved object selection, rotation, and measurement in a 3D modeling environment.•Intuitive, user-definable forms for straightforward modeling of complexpipe support assemblies.•Improved modeling of jacketed piping, including automated discrimination betweencore and jacket pipe runs; support for disconnected jacketing; and automated generation of fabrication/erection isometrics.•More automatic cable routing capabilities, like allowable and avoidance volumes.NEW CAPABILITIES FOR ONSHORE PLANT DESIGNFor companies previously using SmartPlant 3D or other plant design systems, severalpowerful application environments are now available:•Modular design capabilities– Rule-based or interactiveassembly definitions for use in sequencing construction andinstallation operations.•Weight and Center of Gravity– Automated calculation andflexible display/reporting for accurate and comprehensive tracking of mass property information.•Automated Structural Detailing– Rule-based generationof welds, bevels, notching, sniping, and more for both modelingand fabrication.•Structural Manufacturing– Automatic cutting sketches andinterface to external nesting systems.•Hole Management– Managed environment enables rule-based generation of penetrations through all types of structuralobjects with automated detailing, change management, andhandshaking between the initiator and the owner of the objectbeing penetrated.•Additional automatic drawing extraction capabilities–Assembly sequencing and structural fabrication drawings.3D INTEROPERABILITYSmart 3D is the only system to offer interoperability with bothgraphics and data attributes of foreign CAD models, making itideally suited to brownfield and joint-venture projects. This capability allows intelligent connections to externally modeled pipingand equipment, real-time clashing across all authoring tools, viewfiltering, and combined foreign-native orthographic drawings andreports. Through integration with SmartPlant Interop Publisher,Smart 3D extends the number of supported 3D formats, enablingan even richer, centrally-managed 3D ecosystem.DRAWINGS AND REPORTSImprovements to automated generation of project deliverables –including simplified administration and configuration utilities – addvalue to projects more quickly than ever before. Smart 3D nowcomes with a new Isometric Setup tool for even easier configuration of integrated Piping Isometric generation. Isometrics have beenenhanced to better support jacketed piping, including disconnectedsections.A new profile and data drawing template enables users to updatebills of materials to better reflect company standards. Drawing byruleset functionality has been extended to support outfitting/plantobjects, providing an efficient mechanism for automated generationof complete drawings sets. And, the automatic drawing templatesnow offer enhancements for hangers and support.MARINE AND OFFSHORESmart 3D continues to extend its 3D modeling capabilities to meetthe needs of the marine/offshore design and fabrication market.Enhancements include sophisticated plate-splitting and weldgeneration capabilities, advanced member placement, parametricmodeling of topological openings, additional options for structuraldetailing, and greater detection and change management capabilities in the Common Parts Engine.MINING AND MATERIALS HANDLINGResponding to input from a burgeoning user community in the mining sector, Smart 3D now leverages a conveyor belt object class,extending capabilities to model, manage, and generate accurateand detailed deliverables on mining projects in a comprehensiveand efficient manner. Enhancements include:•Seamless integration with SideWinder, Helix, and Beltstat beltdesign applications.•Automated belt certification/correction.•Internal 2D/3D workflow for modeling conveyor components.•Trestle Wizard for parametric modeling of trestles.•Design reuse capabilities via Smart 3D’s MDR command.•Parametric layout, modeling, and detail design of chutes.
