The Component Specification Reference Attribute

All Piping Components (including ducting, cable trays and pipe hangers) obtain their geometries from the Catalogue through a Specification. The SPREF (Specification Reference) attribute of these items refers to a Specification Component in a chosen Project Specification that obtains its physical dimensions from the Catalogue. If the SPREF is not set, a Valve, for example, is merely a hierarchical element and has no geometry.


Example:
SPREF /SPEC208/EL50BW	The current element is specified by the chosen Specification Component.

Note:

This attribute is usually inserted automatically as a direct result of the CHOOSE (or SELECT) command. It can, however, be set directly to the name of the required Specification Component.
