Data input and output sequence for the design and analysis of water supply systems
The design and analysis of a water supply system can be carried out in the program using the following input and output sequence:
- Creation of a new job (from "File", "New").
- (Optional) Link to BIMserver.center and import of topographic data from the BIM model.
- Configuration of general data of the system (in the wizard for the creation of a new job or in "General data", "Edit general data of the job"), including the definition of materials and terrains.
- Defining loadcases and combinations (from "General data", "Edit loadcases", and from "General data", "Edit combinations").
- (Optional) Import of DXF-DWG/DWF templates or images (from "Edit templates").
- Entering nodes (from "Nodes", "New").
- Entering spans between nodes (from "Sections", "New").
- (Optional) Entering other elements in the system (from "Elements", "New").
- Analysis and/or design of the system (from "Analysis", "Analysis/Design").
- Review of the compliance status of the checks carried out (from the "Next combination/Select combination/Previous combination" options) and of the analysis results (from "Nodes", "Information", and "Sections", "Information").
- Printing reports and drawings of the job (from "File", "Reports/Drawings").
- (Optional) Exporting to BIMserver.center (from "BIMserver.center", "Share").
