Smart 3D is a design application for a wide range of industries, such as process, power, shipbuilding, bulk-material handling, and bio-pharmaceutical. This data-centric tool provides:

  • Rule-driven 3D modeling

  • Export to and Import from analysis

  • Detailing

  • Preparation of manufacturing and construction deliverables

  • Automatic drawing production

  • Reporting

All of the engineering disciplines work together in a Smart 3D model using a consistent user interface that has been specifically tailored for detailed design. Smart 3D is fully integrated with SmartPlant Enterprise to provide managed electronic access to data created by front end engineering design (FEED) applications such as SmartPlant P&ID, SmartPlant Instrumentation, and SmartPlant Electrical.

The software automatically creates relationships in the model to facilitate design consistency between and across disciplines. You can manually create additional relationships for fabrication, construction planning, and other activities.

Smart 3D does not store your design in flat files. Instead, the design is stored in the model database so that all of the designers on your team have access to what they need whenever they need it. This section provides information to help you work efficiently with multiple designers collaborating in a single model.
