Multi-Discipline Supports User Guide
Using the MDS Application : End the Creation of a Support
End the Creation of a Support
When the user has finished the support, click OK.
The application then performs a series of integrity checks to make sure that the support is completed. If any errors are found OK is deactivated and the support is not completed until the user has rectified the errors. The checks performed are as follows:
Displays a message
•
If the packing distance is greater than 2mm but not greater than allowable packing distance.
•
If the support is a special, a message is issued to the user to create the structural steelwork.
•
If no warning or errors are found.
Displays a warning message
•
If the maximum length of steelwork is not to be exceeded. In the design template database each member can be given a maximum length that it may not exceed.
Displays an error message
•
If the Application Default maximum packing distance has been exceeded.
•
If any of the support attachments overlap the crossbar. A maximum overlap value is set on the MDS Application Defaults window (see View the Application Defaults).
•
If any of the dimensions associated with the support ancillaries, for example shoes, exceed the values defined in the MDS Ancillary Defaults window (refer to MDS Administrator Guide).
•
If any reference used within the MDS application, for example bedplate reference, no longer exists.
