Diameter Table (DTAB).
The BLIS (bolt list) element is the administrative element which owns SBOL (single bolt) elements.
Each SBOLT has the following attributes
NST
A pointer to a length array
BITEM
Additional bolt items to be used while calculating the bolt length
BITL

The LTAB (length table) element is the administrative element which owns DTAB (diameter table)
elements.
Each DTAB element has a BLEN (bolt length array) attribute containing all available lengths of bolts for a
given diameter and material specification. This data is used by ISODRAFT for calculating bolt length
requirements. When ISODRAFT calculates that a bolted connection requires a bolt length, it scans the
BLEN array for a length which is equal to or greater than the calculated length. The length found is output
in the material list.

Model Management
10.1
Management of Holds
During the execution of the Engineering during EMC, ODC or Detailed Design due to non availability of the
required information, some components/ lines are kept under HOLD. In order to know the exact number of
items under HOLD, it is advised to take a list of HOLD from the model. This shall be achieved only when
the HOLD has been marked in the model.
A user defined attribute has been created, as explained in section 8 and its sub sections, which shall be
filled as “HOLD” during EMC, ODC and the Detailed Engineering to mark the item which is HOLD.
10.2
Spec and Catalogue
The Standard PDMS project based on the Standard Shell DEPs shall be created and maintained by AIC.
Once a Project Initiation request has been raised, the AIC will create the Project specific PDMS project in
discussion with the Project and Engineering Management team with the standard spec and catalogue.
Any change in the spec or in the catalogue made during the FEEDshall be done by the Engineering
Design System Administrator for PDMS assigned for the project. The Engineering Design System
Administrator assigned on the project shall maintain a log of changes made in the spec and catalogue and
shall submit the same to AIC once the project in FEED has completed.
During EMC, ODC or Detailed Engineering, Company will provide the Global PDMS setup to the
Contractor with Standard Spec and Catalogues. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to review the
dimensional data and update if Contractor finds any discrepancy by copying the Standard Catalogue data
into the Project Specific Database. It is responsibility of the Contractor to ensure the accuracy of the
dimensional data.At the end of the project Contractor shall submit the log of changes made in the
Catalogues.
10.3

For checking clashes for the above ground modelled items, clashes for Civil/ Structural discipline shall be
checked against Piping, Equipment which includes Mechanical equipment, Electrical, C&A, Telecom and
HVAC equipments, HVAC, Cable tray work for Electrical, Instrumentation and Telecom disciplines.
However, checking clashes for the underground Civil works becomes more tricky and shall be done
carefully during the Detailed Engineering by the CONTRACTOR. For checking these clashes, Civil
discipline shall check clashes within itself to check clashes between the concrete work like foundation,
trenches, pits, storm water drain channels , underground piping, underground cables etc.
10.3.2
Frequency of Clash Checking
Clash checking shall be carried out at regular interval based on the PBS. Apart from the periodic clash
checking designer shall use the online clash checking utility on a daily basis.
Apart from this periodic clash checking, a formal clash checking before following milestones shall be done




Before 30% Model Review
Before 60% Model Review
Before 90% Model Review
Before issue of IFC deliverables from each L3 PBS area or Sub PBS area.
The clash checking report with Zero clashes shall be maintained/ submitted.
10.3.3
Approval of Clashes
Once the clash checking has been completed, the clash report shall be distributed to designers for the
resolution of clashes. It is responsibility of the Engineering Design System Administrator to ensure that the
clash report send for the resolution is error free and list out all types of clashes.
Designer shall review the following types of clashes and then shall write the comment in the Clash report.
Types of Clashes



Soft vs Soft
Soft vs Hard
Hard vs Hard
Designer can put only three types of comments



Clash Resolved
To be transferred to another discipline
To be approved
Once the designer marks his/ her comments, then the Engineering Design System Administrator shall
review the clashes for which the comment “To be approved” is marked and once he/ she is satisfied then
only he/ she shall approve that clash. During this if he finds that some clashes shall once again be
reviewed, and thenhe / sheshall co-ordinate with the designers for possible resolution.
During the approval of clashes, it is mandatory to review all the Soft clashes and no routine shall be written
to approve these clashes automatically. The purpose of reviewing the false clash is to ensure the safety
distance requirements are met as at most of the places it is not possible to model the separation volumes.

Plant Breakdown Structure (PBS)
The most important aspect while developing the 3D model is to define the model area based on Plant
Breakdown Structure in discussion with the Project/ Engineering Management, Project Planning and
Engineering Leads. The Plant Breakdown Structure helps in breaking the model areas into smaller volume,
which is good from the data management point of view. Entire project team uses single terminology from
Planning to Engineering to Logistics to Construction and later on in Operations and Maintenance.
The Model area break as per the PBS helps in scheduling the output as per the Project Planning in way
that is more effective and it gives opportunity to priorities the output for different requirements of
Procurement, Construction and Commissioning.This is very helpful in case of EP & C projects.
During the Detailed Engineering, the Plant Breakdown Structure shall be discussed and agreed with
Construction. CONTRACTOR shall further develop the PBS developed during FEED and shall agree with
the COMPANY.
While setting up the PDMS model, four level Plant Breakdown structure shall be followed for breaking the
model areas which shall enable the model to provide information to Project Management as per the Project
Planning as per Project WBS.
Routing of Cables will not follow the Plant Breakdown Structure of the model.
13.1
Levels of Plant Breakdown Structure
Four levels of PBS for the management of model are




13.1.1
Level -1 PBS.
Level -2 PBS
Level -3 PBS
Sub PBS
Level-1 PBS
Level -1 PBS shall be the First level of WBS defined for the Enterprise Project Structure and shall match
with WBS defined under SAP.
13.1.2
Level-2 PBS
Level -2 PBS refers to the Level-4 of the Project Level WBS (GU-484) under Enterprise Project Structure
and shall be agreed with the Project Management & Planning Team at the beginning of the Project.
13.1.3
Level-3 PBS
Level -3 WBS is the Geographical WBS, which shall define the Model area split and shall be based on the
plot plan. During FEED modeling will take place at this level only.
13.1.4
Sub PBS
Sub PBS is the lowest level of PBS defined for the project and subsequent modeling work and shall be
based on Level 4 & 5 of the WBS as defined in GU-484 section 6.3. At this level,3D modelingshall be
performed during the EMC, ODC and Detailed Design, based on the concept of Construction Work pack.
The model developed during the FEED based the Level-3 PBS, shall be further broken into smaller model
bases where modeling will take place based on Construction Work Pack Concept. This will become the
basis for the Tracking the Project Progress, MTO, Drawings, Isometrics etc. from the model and the 3D
Model Progress in sync with Project Progress.
13.2
Sample Plant Breakdown Structure
The sample Plant Breakdown Structure for breaking the model area shall be as defined as shown below

Model Progress Measurement
All elements of the PDMS model shall be reported against for completion status using the definitions
below. This is mandatory. The status attribute will be extracted into a PDMS progress reporting database
for input into the overall project status reporting by the project controls group.
Each progress status step must be input and separated by a comma when the PDMS Administrator or
designer reaches the designated completion. If a particular progress step is not applicable for any reason
and requires advancement to a further stage, then ‘x’ is to be input in lieu to ensure accurate progress
percentage accrual.
During the EMC, ODC or Detailed Design phase, Contractor shall propose the Model Progress
Measurement, whichshall be reviewed and approved by Company.
