Plant and Skid Layout: Tips, Tricks and Tools

Instructor: Lee Smith

CADWorx Plant is the tool used to help design piping systems in the plant designer’s world. As with any tool, knowing how and when to use it is an important part of any good design. Knowledge of piping systems is another important part of good plant design. In this session you will learn good design practices based on industry standards and years of experience. This session is intended for everyone from just starting out to seasoned pros.

ISOGEN Optimization

Instructor: Matt Breeden

ISOGEN is very powerful and this session will demonstrate some of this power. Learn how to use user shapes and SKEY's to get what you want in your drawings. Learn how to use the symbol editor to create custom symbols and assign your own SKEY's to have ISOGEN use them automatically and to develop detail sketches.

ISOGEN Customization

Instructor: John McWilliams

ISOGEN is the tool to produce isometric drawings inside CADWorx. To meet your company standards customizing ISOGEN is a requirement. In this session you will learn how to customize ISOGEN to meet these standards.

ISOGEN Setup

Instructor: Rod Abbott

The final deliverable of any project is drawings. Isometrics are the primary drawings produced and ISOGEN is the tool CADWorx uses to generate these drawings. With the power of ISOGEN comes the complexity of the setup. This session will teach you how to setup ISOGEN using the new iConfig tools added to CADWorx 2011.

Advanced CADWorx P&ID 2011

Instructor: David Wolfe

CADWorx P&ID is a very powerful tool used to generate P&ID's. In this session you will learn how to take advantage of this power by using the database features of CADWorx P&ID. You will also learn how to make existing legacy P&ID's intelligent and how to transfer P&ID drawings and data between projects allowing you to develop standards and reuse CADWorx P&ID drawings on new projects. You will see how to use dynamic blocks in your P&ID's.

Introduction to CADWorx P&ID 2011

Instructor: David Wolfe

Good design starts with a good P&ID. All good designers know how important P&ID's are to the overall project and most have experienced frustration with poor P&ID design. This session will demonstrate CADWorx P&ID and how this integrated design tool can help you with your design projects and eliminate some of these frustrations. You will see how CADWorx P&ID will link your work with CADWorx Plant so the data from a good P&ID can be directly used in your modeling designs.

CADWorx P&ID 2011

Instructor: Robert Riley

Using CADWorx P&ID is the easiest and most efficient way to produce your P&IDs. This session will show how to get the most out of CADWorx P&ID and will let you decide for yourself if this will not help you in your plant design projects.

CADWorx P&ID Tools

Instructor: Gary Mellinger

CADWorx P&ID Pro comes with several tools to help you develop your required drawings more efficiently. In this session you will learn how to use CADWorx Datasheets, CADWorx LOOPS, and CADWorx IP. Each of these tools has a specific requirement that they help fulfill.

Advanced Modeling Techniques

Instructor: Josh Sampson

Using CADWorx Plant you can model any type of piping project you desire. Sometimes you need to look at alternative ways to develop your models using different tools and techniques inside CADWorx. In this session you will learn how to use some of these tools and techniques to enhance your productivity.

Basic Equipment Modeling in CADWorx 2011

Instructor: Kyle Pope

Basic equipment modeling is included in CADWorx Plant Pro and includes the tools needed to quickly model pump, vessel and heat exchanger layouts. Create your equipment in detail then xref them into your models. Keep up with the changes by modifying a previously modeled piece of equipment.

Creating Specifications and Data Files

Instructor: Mark White

CADWorx specifications and design data are the easiest to build and maintain. This session will teach you how to build and maintain your company standards and how to add to the data files used by previous CADWorx versions.

Pipe Supports in CADWorx 2011

Instructor: Mark Bross

With the addition of the intelligent support modeler in CADWorx Plant 2011 you are now able to parametrically add the necessary pipe supports and generate a BOM of the support assemblies. In this session you will learn how to use this new and exciting tool and how it will enhance your model production.

User Shapes

Instructor: Carol Orgar

Although CADWorx has an extensive library of components to select from, sometimes you need to show something in your models that is not "off the shelf". User shapes allow you to add a custom component with intelligence to the model. In this session you will learn how to build a user shape and how to add the intelligence needed for BOM and ISOGEN generation.

Model Organization

Instructor: Vince Wehnes

Large and small models require careful planning to make their development and use efficient. Many times models are used for different purposes - from overall plant layouts to equipment details to subsystem drawings. This can be very complex if a good model organization is not developed and followed. In this session you will see one way of developing a good model organization plan and begin to see ways you can implement a good design for your organization.
