- 1. 3D Plant Design Management System
- 2. 3D Plant Design Management System Introduction It is a computer-aided design which is used in the Process and Power generation industries for detail engineering. It reduces the engineering and construction cost. It shortens design, construction and commissioning schedules. It improves operating efficiency, safety, environmental impact and regulatory compliance and all quality factors. The deployment of 3D Plant Design Management systems may be seen as differentiating firms that seek to leverage computer technology for competitive advantage from firms with more traditional engineering approaches. Now-a-days 3D Plant design technology becoming as a cornerstone of plant lifecycle information management.

- 4. Conceptual Design / Proposal phase : Process and power generation project costs are sensitive to conceptual design decisions. Plant design software facilitates the economic analysis of design alternatives before project costs are committed. For example, 3D modeling enables design engineers to perform cost/benefit analysis for alternate plot plans. Accuracy and consistency of the documentation for conceptual design tasks, including process design and simulation, plant layout, cost estimation, process control specification and equipment specification are critical determinants of project cost. Computer-aided conceptual design in general, and 3D design modeling in particular, can enable design intent to be communicated more efficiently and accurately among engineering personnel, which improves both quality and timeliness of project design. Additionally firms can report a favorable reception by senior management to animated 3D walkthroughs and photo realistic slide presentations at client companies.

- 5. Engineering and detail design phase: For engineering and detail design of process and power generation facilitates, 3D technology promises the following benefits. Improved quality through data integrity. Consistency and standardization of design. Constructability analysis. Elimination of expensive plastic models. Design and design segment re-use on future projects. Input from operations at the design phase. Automated interference checking. Input data for engineering analysis and simulation. Improved overall efficiency through automation of production of engineering drawings and reports. Better project control and coordination.

- 6. Engineering and detail design phase: The integration of piping specifications and code requirements as well as ANSI and DIN standards in a consistent database allows engineers to avoid costly mistakes by trapping errors and out-of-specification design. A related benefit is that 3D models can be automatically exported to analysis applications to test the designs for mechanical stress, hydraulic analysis, thermal stress and other factors, which can both improve design quality and reduce project cost. Interference checking between disciplines such as piping, equipments, HVAC, structural steel and electrical. 3D Plant design system provides the automated production of engineering drawings and reports.

- 7. Construction phase: Plant construction costs, including construction labor, equipment and materials for typical process and power generation projects represents approximately 80% to 90% of a total project costs. Construction-phase benefits of using 3D plant design technology include, compressed construction schedules reduction in field rework labor due to improved interference detection higher-quality documentation for job sequencing and craft work more reliable and clearer status reporting and verification improved costing schedules reduces fabrication cost and bulk material cost up.

- 8. Construction phase: Rework can be reduced to as little as 2% of total construction labor when 3D plant design modeling is utilized during the construction phase. 3-Dimensional plant design databases can be used to generate bill of material (BOM) and material take-offs (MTO) automatically, which can lead to more accurate procurement, reduced bulk Material surpluses, and consequently improved project cash flow. Live links from engineering schematics and the 3D model to component catalogs can also enable more intelligent procurement scheduling. Plant life cycle management Benefits of 3D Plant Design System
- 9. Operations and Maintenance phase: Operations and Maintenance phase benefits of using 3D plant design technology include, optimization of maintenance schedule improved safety management streamlined component and drawing research for operations troubleshooting provides enhanced training and minimize facility turnaround and outage time. Visualization of the work space enables intelligent maintenance planning, a benefit more easily achieved with a 3D model than with 2D drawings and physical models.

- 15. Comparative strengths of PDMS PDMS provides database integration between P&ID and piping design. This provides design reference for routing pipe and eliminates errors. ‘Piping Designer’ is a specification-driven task. The piping job specification is accessed during the placement of each component or pipe. It avoids mistakes by trapping errors and out-of-specification design. Implied material items like gaskets, bolts and welds are placed automatically. They are invisible graphically and listed in the bill of materials. Non physical data such as branch calculations or gasket separation, wall thickness calculations are hard corded in the software itself. The Piping Assembly Language (PAL) enables to define the parameter necessary to place a piping assembly (group of components) automatically in the model. PDMS generates stress neutral file for third party software’s like CAESAR. PDMS allows to extract isometrics from a 3D plant model. The ISODraft software is designed to be flexible because drawing practices vary from one company to another. In addition to isometric drawings it generates ISOGEN MTO neutral file, Parts list (Bill of Materials) and Cut pipe report.
