Selection Tables
Selection Tables (specifications) are general purpose tables which can be used to control the choice of components available for selection by populating the table with specific GPARTS for use in DESIGN, refer to
Component Parts
for further information. Selection Tables are more commonly used with Equipment and Steelwork disciplines, refer to
Equipment
and
Structures
for further information.
The tables can be populated in the following ways:
•
Selection Criteria - uses a series of questions (column headers (TABHEA and TABHQU)) and answers (entry in table rows (TABITEM)).
•
Attributes Filters - searches the catalogue for GPARTS with matching attributes.
Note:
Selection tables cannot be used in the Piping discipline, refer to
Setting Specification Attributes
