Design Conventions for Catalogues and Specifications

Hangers and Supports : Hangers & Supports Configurations and Data Tables : Hanger Configuration Specifications
Template Configurations which have a fixed length and can be used to determine the positions of support steel when creating a steelwork template
Tube Configurations which have variable length which can be applied to tube type hangers.
Component Configurations which have variable or fixed length which can be applied to component type hangers.
STEX = <value>
where <value> represents the number of stanchions expected in the final configuration and must be a non-negative integer or the letter ‘N’ to indicate any number, but it can have the following modifiers:
> There must be greater than zero before configuration
= The number before configuration must be the same as the number specified
STEX = <value>
where <value> represents the number of cross-members expected in the final configuration and must be a non-negative integer or the letter ‘N’ to indicate any number, but it can have the following modifiers:
> There must be greater than zero before configuration
= The number before configuration must be the same as the number specified
DESCR = <member type>_<member number>
where <member type> is XM or ST and <member number> is the number of the stanchion/cross-member being described
STEX = <start connection info> <end connection info>
where <start connection info> takes the form
S:<member at start>/<joint position>/<Attached or Owner>:<clearance code>
and <end connection info> takes the form
E:<member at end>/<joint position>/<joint ownership>:<clearance code>
<member at start> is a support member identifier of the start connection
<member at end> is a support member identifier of the end connection
<value>
<joint position> can take one of the following values:
<joint ownership> is either of:
<clearance code> refers to the minimum clearance between the nearest pipe and the respective end as defined in the clearance data table:
STEX = <parameter>/<descriptor> <parameter>/<descriptor> ...
where <parameter> is a single-character text string in the range A‑I and <descriptor> can refer to any of the following:
