Use the structure translation mapping sheets in the PDMSS3DImportMapping.xls workbook to map PDMS structure attributes to the correct Smart 3D structure properties. Before importing PDMS structure model data to Smart 3D, modify these sheets to ensure that the following criteria are met:
-
All cross-sections and PLine attributes in the PDMS catalog are mapped to the corresponding cross-sections and cardinal points in the Smart 3D model. This is mandatory for the import of members to Smart 3D.
After you complete all of the mapping in the PDMSS3DImportMapping.xls workbook, run PDMS Import Validation to validate the mapping data in the workbook. Resolve any missing entries reported by the validation tool. For more information, see PDMS Import Validation Command.
You can define the Default value in each sheet as the PDMS PLine attribute, mapped to the Smart 3D cardinal point. The software uses the Default value only if JUSL is not defined for the section or is not mapped in the mapping file. If you do not map the Default value to a cardinal point, the software defines the cardinal point as 5-Center.
