SECTION 1
PDS Ortho Draw Overview

This User's Guide explains in detail on how to create the optimal drawing in the shortest amount of
time, the preceding work that must be carried out to create the desired drawing, and on the logic
involved in how the PDS Ortho Draw creates the drawing.
The beginning of each chapter starts off with the introduction of the content explained in the
chapter and the chapter proceeds with a detailed explanation of the topic.
The explanation of each process focuses on the business practice perspective, which allows the
user to easily get used to PDS Ortho Draw by simply following the process. This also makes it
easy to be applied to real projects.
Who This User's Guide is For

This User Guide is meant for users who wish to create the drawings out of models that have been
modeled with the use of PDS®.
This guide is written from the user’s perspective, so with the basic knowledge on certain parts of
PDS®’s Design Data and Drawing Manager, an optimal drawing can be made just with the use of
this User Guide.
If an overall knowledge of PDS® including its Modeling function is acquired, then it could
serve to help solving problems presented during drawing creation arising from modeling errors.
Online Documentation
All related documents are provided in PDF(Portable Document Format) File.

Condition Tab (Piping Option Dialog Box)

Sets conditions so that the necessary Model out of the Reference File can be selected. Criteria are
of the same method as the Criteria used in Label Format, the And condition can be set for the
same Row, and if a Row is added, then the OR condition is formulated.
The condition written in the Criteria is the file name of the Reference File excluding the expansion.
In Criteria, signs such as ‘*’, ‘?’ and ‘!’ are used.
‘*’ : It does not figure the letters in the direction of the symbol regardless of the number.
‘?’ : It does not figure the letters identical to the number.
‘!’ : It figures the conditions inversely.
If the same condition as the picture above is given, then it will become (*PIPE* & ??EQUI*) |
(*HVAC*). Thus if ‘EQUI’ is present on the third character of the file name, or if the file name
includes ‘PIPE’ or ‘HVAC’, then it means that they do not meet the conditions.

Option
Piping Model Rule

If all reference files are allowed, for instance like ‘*’, then all files for piping also will be allowed in
Drawing Manager. If the user does not input any value, then no file for piping will not be applied in
Drawing Manager.
Equipment Model Rule

If all Reference Files are allowed to set the Criteria as ‘*’, then all files made by the Drawing
Manager for Equipment Use are permitted, and if no value is written, then all files made by the
Drawing Manager for Equipment use will not be permitted.
Equipment Model Rule includes the Generic Equipment and Ref. Equipment Model Rule. The
thing to watch out for here is that there is a ranking. One Model only has one Model Rule applied,
thus if the same Criteria is applied on two Model Rules, then the corresponding drawing will be
recognized as a Generic Equipment.

Option
If the Criteria is set as ‘*’ for Generic Equipment, then all drawings will not be applied in the Ref.
Equipment, so cautions must be taken.
Support Model Rule

Piping Support Designer in PDS - The Piping Drawing’s Support can be modeled into 3 types. If
it is modeled in PDS, then the data is saved in pdtable_80. Thus the Model Rule is applied in the
same manner as Pipe Model Rule, and in this case, changes cannot be made.
Whether to display this Support on the drawing can be set with the use of ‘Use Piping Support
Designer in PDS’ checkbox. If used, then the Data Column to be displayed on the Drawing can be
set from the Column Name beneath. When setting it as Key-in, it is possible for the user to
manually enter is, but the exact Column must be set to display the data, so accuracy is required.

Option
It is possible to combine columns if Advanced is selected.
FrameWorks+ - FrameWorks Plus Support Model Rule and Structure Model Rule will be applied
with priority order.

Option
In other words, the drawing applied to FrameWorks Plus Support Model Rule will not be applied to
Structure Model Rule.
Attribute Name - Sets attribute to group supports among attribute names in the Support Model
that was modeled with FrameWorks+.

Option
Pelican Forge - Sets a model that was modeled with Pelican Forge.
Column Name for Support - Sets a column name of the data to be displayed in Support in the
drawing.

Option
Structure Model Rule

Structure Model Rule use the same Discipline as FrameWorks Plus Support Model Rule, thus
priority order is applied. Since FrameWorks Plus Support is prioritized, the FrameWorks Plus
Support Model Rule must be blocked or the drawing name to be applied on the Structure Model
Rule must be set in such a way so that that it is not be the same as the FrameWorks Plus Support
Model Rule in order to properly apply the Structure Model Rule.
Structure Platform Rule - In the model that structure model rule was applied, set platform to be
displayed on the drawing. Apply the FrameWork+ member’s name after comparing it with the
criteria entered by the user.
Type - The user can select WALL or SLAB as attribute type in FrameWorks Plus.
If the user selects ‘ALL’, both of SLAB and WALL will be selected.
Criteria - Sets it as only the attribute name set by the user Attribute can be selected.
It is applied as criteria of the model rule is applied.

Option
Label Tab (Piping Option Dialog Box)

Label Definition

which was brought from the Grid Model generated with FrameWorks+. The user must be cautious
to attach not only the Grid Model as reference file, but also Propagated Model and Sparse Model.
The user can get the optimal results when he combines two models since Sparse model is used to
call for data while Propagated model is used to create a drawing in PDS Ortho Drawings.
There are three options such as All, Grid Intersection, and Grid Intersection + Column Position in
column.
If the user selects All, all Grid lines in the data will be displayed on the drawing. If the user selects
Grid Intersection, only crossed-over grids will be displayed. If the user selects Grid Intersection +
Column Position, then the grids with a column at the intersection will be displayed

Option, Equipment, Instrument and Seat, Support, and Structure are applied in the property order
even though the same model rule is applied to all of them.
Equipment > Instrument
Seat > Support > Structure
For example, the drawing must be input as structure to display grid information. If it is applied to
the seat model rule, you cannot get the needed information. Thus, you must understand features
of the model rule and apply the priority order in an appropriate way to create a desired drawing.

Option
Equipment Model Rule
It is a setting for the equipment model.

If the user inputs ‘*’ in Criteria in all reference files, all attached files for equipment will be allowed
while no attached file will be applied in Drawing Manager if the user does not input any value.
In Electrical Drawing, the priority order is applied to Equipment Model Rule and Instrument Model
Rule. Since only one model rule is applied to one model, the model will be identified as Equipment
if one criteria is applied to two model rules. If the criteria is set as ‘*’ in Equipment, the drawing is
not applied to Instrument Model Rule.

Option
Structure Model Rule

Structure Model Rule use the same Discipline as FrameWorks Plus Support Model Rule, thus
priority order is applied. Since FrameWorks Plus Support is prioritized, the FrameWorks Plus
Support Model Rule must be blocked or the drawing name to be applied on the Structure Model
Rule must be set in such a way so that that it is not be the same as the FrameWorks Plus Support
Model Rule in order to properly apply the Structure Model Rule.
Structure Platform Rule - In the model that structure model rule was applied, set platform to be
displayed on the drawing. Apply the FrameWork+ member’s name after comparing it with the
criteria entered by the user.
Type - The user can select WALL or SLAB as attribute type in FrameWorks Plus.
If the user selects ‘ALL’, both of SLAB and WALL will be selected.
