  5. Part 1) ProStructuresSS7 Drawing Production Theory • Structural steel Design drawings (general arrangements), steel placing drawings, Shop drawings (AISC shown – similar world-wide): • Concrete Design drawings and rebar placing drawings (CRSI shown – similar world-wide): “Reinforcing bar placing drawings… provide the details and placing instructions so that the ironworkers can set the reinforcing bars into place in the formwork”.

  6. Part 1) ProStructuresSS7 Drawing Production Theory • Some structural software products use the same workflow for structural steel drawingsand concrete drawings: • Structural steel fabrication drawings are a combination of design drawings, single part drawings + placing drawings. • Concrete drawing production: • Design drawings convey design intent of concrete and rebar • Rebar typically fabricated from bar schedules and/or bar tags • Rebar placing drawings are for placing rebar and often re-use the design drawings • Bentley’s Rebar2PC project (2013-2014): Driver: Concrete Drawing Production • Need to display, label, dimension concrete shapes like a user wants to. • Need to display, label, dimension rebar like a user wants to.

  7. Part 1) ProStructuresSS7 Drawing Production Theory • Structural steel: DetailCenter • Concrete: Dynamic Views and Hypermodeling

  8. Part 1) ProStructuresSS7 Drawing Production Theory • Beginning with (Power) ProStructures SS7: Dynamic Views are the recommended best-practice method for producing drawings for concrete and rebar drawings. • DetailCenter remains the recommended best practice to produce steel fabrication drawings (and remains an option for concrete drawing production as well). Note: for precast concrete panels and other similar concrete objects, DetailCentermay be the best option.

  9. Part 1) ProStructures SS7 Drawing Production Theory • ProConcrete SS7 provides two methods of displaying 3D rebar in drawings: • 1) 2D views of the 3D rebar without any symbolization (drawing on left below) • 2) 2D symbolic graphics (drawing on right below) Drawing with 2D symbolic rebar shown Drawing with 3D rebar shown

  11. Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow Definition of “Dynamic Views”: (source: MicroStation Help file): Dynamic Views is a general name that encompasses several related technologies which share a common goal of making model analysis and documentation more interactive and intuitive. Gone are the days when designs were just static [snapshot] views. They are replaced by the ability to create live, intelligent sections of a design composition that update automatically (through the use of detailing symbols with fields and links) as the design evolves.

  12. Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow (Terms) Dynamic Views: Terms and Definitions Design Drawing Sheet Model Annotation

  13. Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow (Terms) Dynamic Views: Terms and Definitions Design Model: The 3D BIM model (.dgn) Drawing Model: A 2D model container in which a Dynamic View is stored. Sheet Model: A 2D or 3D model container that typically includes a referenced sheet border. Design Drawing Sheet Model Annotation

  14. Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow (Terms) Dynamic Views: Terms and Definitions Design Model: Drawing Model: Sheet Model: Design Drawing Sheet Model Annotation

  15. Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow (Terms) Dynamic Views: Terms and Definitions Design Annotation: 3D labels, model annotation Drawing Annotation: Labels, dimensions, notes, callouts appropriate for a drawing (includes 2D symbolic rebar labels and dimensions) Sheet Annotation: Only the notes, labels, callouts appropriate for a sheet (general notes, sheet name) Design Drawing Sheet Model Annotation

Part 2) Dynamic Views Workflow (Terms) Dynamic Views: Terms and Definitions Design Annotation: 3D labels, model annotation Drawing Annotation: Labels, dimensions, notes, callouts appropriate for a drawing (includes 2D symbolic rebar labels and dimensions) Sheet Annotation: Only the notes, labels, callouts appropriate for a sheet (general notes, sheet name) Design Drawing Sheet Model Annotation

  18. ProConcrete Workflow (Modeling) 3D DGN File • All Rebar in ProConcrete must belong to a concrete object - either a ProConcrete parametric object or a promoted solid. • In the SS7 release, the 3D Rebar and the concrete object must be placed in the same DGN file. • Rebar may protrude outside the extents of it’s owner concrete (including entirely outside), and may extend over multiple other concrete objects. • Concrete and Rebar objects both have their own levels( ) colors, line weights, etc. Parent Child (both reside in same DGN file)

  19. Dynamic Views Workflow (ProConcrete) 3D DGN File • All Drawing models with 2D symbolic rebar must be saved to the 3D DGN file containing the concrete and rebar. Leave this turned OFF if you want 2D symbolic rebar in DV’s.

  20. Dynamic Views Workflow (ProConcrete) 3D DGN File • Drawing models with no 2D symbolic rebar (3D only*) may be sent to another file OK to use Drawing Model DGN File * see speaker notes
