Gusset Support with Doubler Plate

Why don't you copy an existing ancillary (i.e. AT05) and add to it  the required plates etc?

Thanks Corrado.....I have copied AT05 into ancillary AT500...its in MDU/CATA...how do I add it to AT540?

I would keep on working on AT500 and add to it all the other 3D primitives so that becomes a "single support" as you stated in your first post.

Does it make sense for you?

No.

You want ONE ancillary that includes a gusset support + a doubler plate. Don't you?

So you can keep what you already did with AT540 and create (add) other 3D primitives to complete it

Or copy AT05 to let's say AT541 and in there create (add) other 3D primitives that represent the gusset as you did for AT540

..Hi Corrado...the first option (adding geometry to AT540) seems easier. So create more DESPARAs similar to those of AT05 in the dataset of AT540 i.e. /A-AT540-DATA and adjust them?

Yes. I would do that way

Hi Corrado, How is the day?

I added the doubler but it doesn't show up in MODEL...the CATREF is the same but the DTREF have not been integrated.

The doubler isn't hiding in the pipe either. Please help.

Have you created the saddle primitives (i.e. positive cilynder + negative box) ?

This works exactly as defining a new piping component.

Are you skilled in that?

I cannot help you any further.....this is becoming a sort of consultancy job....

I hope you understand

Yes.

That's ok Corrado. Cheers.
