•

PSTREF - reference to a Structural Pointset element.

•

PTREF - reference to a 3D Pointset element.

•

GMREF - reference to a 3D Geomset element.

•

PARAM - the component parameters, a list of values used in the Structural Pointset, 3D Pointset and 3D Geomset to define the Component.

•

GTYPE - a word attribute indicating the generic type of the Joint. Any word value may be used. The following are suggested:

•

CTYA - a word attribute indicating how the Joint is fixed to the attached Section (the Joint’s connection type for the attached Section). Any word value may be used. If the connection type attribute of the attached Section (CTYS or CTYE) has not been set when the Joint is selected in the design process, the attribute will automatically be set to the value of CTYA. The AVEVA E3D™ data consistency checks (refer to Data Consistency Checking) check whether the connection type attributes of the Joint and attached Section match.

•

CTYO - similar to CTYA, but for the Joint’s owning Section (secondary Joints only).

•

DTREF - reference to a Dataset element.
