Catalogue Database Structure : Parameters

Parameters define the size, geometry and other characteristics of Components. They are used in setting the attributes of the Pointsets, Geomsets and Datasets to which Component elements refer.

All classes of Component can use component parameters, design parameters and insulation parameters. Structural Components can also use attached and owning design parameters. Component parameters are defined in the Catalogue; the other classes of parameters allow characteristics to be set during the design process.
