8.12.7.1 Adding a bolt set group to the pipe spec
Select which bolt set group you are using.
●
If you use the predefined attachment types, you only need the bolt set group "A10 bolted
connection", which already exists in the database.
● If you define new attachment types, create new bolt set groups based on the following
template:
"@30 > M23 > A50 > A10 > A10 > A10 > B40 > A30 Bolted connection"
You add attachment types in the following standard table:
"Standard tables > Y10 > M23 > A20 > Y10M23N00030 Attachment types"
Using an existing bolt set group
1. Open a pipe spec from the "Administrator > Base data > > Pipe specs" menu.
2. Open the "Pipe parts" tab.
3. Navigate to the following node:
"@50 > A10 > A10 > A10 > 1 > B40 > A30 > A10 > A10 Bolted connection"
4. Drag&drop the object onto the "Pipe parts" tab.
Result
The bolt set group is specified in the fastening table as a standard fastening part for the
following attachment types:
● Bolted connection
● Hole for bolted connection
● Wafer type
See also chapter "Fastening table" tab (Page 105).
If two bolted pipe parts are connected during the engineering, a bolt set group is created and
connected to the pipe parts. It is created in the Navigator under one of the connected pipe
parts.
If you calculate the bolts, a bolt set is created on the engineering side under the bolt set group
for each bolt type. See also chapter Auto-Hotspot. A reference to the bolt set used is set in the
"Bolt set" field of the "Connection <1-n>" tab in the properties of the bolted pipe parts.
