Work piece connections represent the connections between the work pieces in a spool. Typically, a work piece connection is a weld.

If there are n work pieces in a spool, there will be n-1 work piece connections.

Basic Syntax:

<WorkPieceConnection ID="WPC1" WorkPiece1="A" WorkPiece2="B" ConnectionType="Set-On-Tee" SKEY="TESO" >
<Weld ID="3" Type="SOB">
<WeldedPart Type="Pipe" ID="B" End="EndConnect1" />
<WeldedPart Type="Pipe" ID="A" End="End1" />
</Weld>
</WorkPieceConnection>

The WorkPieceConnection element can contain any of the following data:

  • Fixed connection attributes:

    • ID specifies the connection between work pieces. For example, the connection between work piece 1_A and 1_B is WP_1_A_to_WP_1_B.

    • WorkPiece_n identifies the work piece, such as WorkPieceA or WorkPieceB

    • Role specifies the role played by a work piece in the connection, such as Main, Branch, or End.

  • Connection information (ConnectPoint), which defines the location of the connection in the work piece coordinate system.

  • Weld information, which defines the weld that connects the two work pieces.
