Applies To Product(s): OpenPlant Isometrics Manager Version(s): 08.11.09.458 Environment: Windows 7 64 bit Area: Settings/Attributes Subarea: N\A Original Author: Kestutis Mitkus, Bentley Technical Support Group In OpenPlant Isometrics Manager, user requirement is to get Total Weight in Bill of Materials using AutoPLANT Modeler. Background In OpenPlant Isometrics Manager, using AutoPLANT Modeler, it has different properties total weights & dry weights in comparison to OpenPlant Modeler. AutoPLANT modeler WEIGHT_DRY property uses weight per unit as a constant and WEIGHT_TOT for total weight calculation, while OpenPlant modeler DRY_WEIGHT property used for total weight calculation and WEIGHT for weight per unit as a constant. In this case, when ISO generated through AutoPLANT, correct total weight value displayed in OPIM WEIGHT property. This can be achieved through modifying report.def file under style folder present under each project and by modifying OpenPlant_3D.01.04.ecschema from user, AutoPLANT projects directory. Steps to Accomplish Launch Bentley Project Administrator and click “Create/Modify” button in Isometrics Settings. From Advanced node, click on ‘Open Report definition’ file. In report definition file, write Total Report to apply for Shop material as shown in below image. Save report definition file and generate isometrics. The right way to count the weight of a pipe with elbow would be: Pipe WEIGHT (333,416) + Elbows DRY_WEIGHT (22,727). In AutoPlant WEIGHT_DRY mapped with DRY_WEIGHT is a weight per unit constant and WEIGHT_TOT mapped with WEIGHT is calculated total weight value. In OPIM elbows have only DRY_WEIGHT property, which could be the same as WEIGHT. In this case, elbows need additional WEIGHT property mapped with WEIGHT_DRY from AutoPlant. Below are the steps to fix this issue. In Class Editor, open ‘OpenPlant_3D.01.04.ecschema’ from projects directory. See Path below: …..%PROJECTROOT%\Config\OpenPlant\schemas Select on PIPE_ELBOW class Properties tab. Copy, paste and rename the DRY_WEIGHT property like in pictures below. Go back to the DRY_WEIGHT property, override it and change “Autoplant 3D” custom attribute value to WEIGHT_TOT Save all changes and generate isometrics to verify results See Also Comments or Corrections?
