Pipe Penetration
On a typical project, it is necessary for designers to create holes in panel elements, for example: deck plates, gratings, floors. Due to implications on design integrity and cost, the hole creation process needs to be controlled and managed.
The Equipment Designer is not able to create holes in floor plates or wall panels as these items are created by another design discipline (Structural Department). These design items are held in another database for which the Equipment Designer has only read access.
A method of requesting, approving or rejecting a hole between disciplines is required; this is known as Hole Management.
The Equipment Designer locates and sizes the hole and then makes a request for the hole to be created by the other discipline.
