Hangers and Supports : Hangers & Supports Configurations and Data Tables : Hanger Configuration Specifications
•
Template Configurations which have a fixed length and can be used to determine the positions of support steel when creating a steelwork template
•
Tube Configurations which have variable length which can be applied to tube type hangers.
•
Component Configurations which have variable or fixed length which can be applied to component type hangers.
STEX = <value>
where <value> represents the number of stanchions expected in the final configuration and must be a non-negative integer or the letter ‘N’ to indicate any number, but it can have the following modifiers:
> There must be greater than zero before configuration
= The number before configuration must be the same as the number specified
STEX = <value>
where <value> represents the number of cross-members expected in the final configuration and must be a non-negative integer or the letter ‘N’ to indicate any number, but it can have the following modifiers:
> There must be greater than zero before configuration
= The number before configuration must be the same as the number specified
DESCR = <member type>_<member number>
where <member type> is XM or ST and <member number> is the number of the stanchion/cross-member being described
STEX = <start connection info> <end connection info>
where <start connection info> takes the form
S:<member at start>/<joint position>/<Attached or Owner>:<clearance code>
and <end connection info> takes the form
E:<member at end>/<joint position>/<joint ownership>:<clearance code>
<member at start> is a support member identifier of the start connection
<member at end> is a support member identifier of the end connection
<value>
<joint position> can take one of the following values:
<joint ownership> is either of:
<clearance code> refers to the minimum clearance between the nearest pipe and the respective end as defined in the clearance data table:
STEX = <parameter>/<descriptor> <parameter>/<descriptor> ...
where <parameter> is a single-character text string in the range A‑I and <descriptor> can refer to any of the following:
