Component naming convention

 
Parents
  • Hi wolf,

    I adopted a simpler approach on naming conventions which is specifically based on the client piping specs standards. We coded the piping specs to a one (1) letter code and combined it with component type...see below:

    Code A = 1143B Carbon Steel ANSI Class 150
    Component Type = PIPE, EL45, EL90...etc
    Size = 25, 40, 50....etc

    therefore:

    Catref Name = A-PIPE-25  (code+component type+size)
    Detail = A-PIPE-SDTE
    Matx= A-PIPE-SMTE

    The above format provides clearly shows component identification, easy to understand and requires few keyins to point the files. Everything is similar/standard except for the pipe coding.

    Regards,
    Ferdinand
