CHAPTER 1

1 Introduction Clash Manager is used to group clashes together and allocate them to owning disciplines for investigation. Clashes can then be approved or reallocated to other disciplines with comments, for example a hole in a floor plate may be required so the Pipe to Floor Clash is reallocated from the Piping Department to the Structural Department. Clash Manager is not intended to replace good design practice using Plant Design (PDMS) it is intended to enhance clash management.

1.1

Aim

The following points need to be understood by the trainees •

CHAPTER 3

3 Creating Clash Sets Clash Sets are groups of Plant Design (PDMS) items that are to be clash checked against other Plant Design (PDMS) items. Clash sets are used to organise the Plant Design (PDMS) items being checked into manageable sizes. Clash sets are based on discipline and area. It is assumed that you are familiar with normal clashing in Plant Design (PDMS). In Clash Set you define your Obstruction List, Exclusion List, Check List, Tolerance etc To create a Clash Set Select Tools > Clash Sets form the Clash Manager Main Menu.

L

Remember to be able to create a Clash Set you must be a ticked Administrator in Clash Manager Configuration > Security > Users

Initially there will be no clash sets. We will create a Clash Set that will allow us to check pipes in the TRAINPIPE zone against all items in zones TRAINPIPE and TRAINSTR under site TRAINSITE.

Adding Items - Wildcards

Regular Expression Summary Value Meaning ^ Matches the start of a line $ Matches the end of a line . Matches any character * Matches zero or more occurrences of the previous expression [string] Matches any one of the characters listed in string

In addition to the standard Regular Expression syntax there is a simple NOT operator . If the exclamation mark is the first character of the Regular Expression, the rule evaluates TRUE if the expression fails. If wildcards were entered at the 'Add to Check List' dialog box as necessary, check the wildcard expansion. Examples of Regular Expression Syntax Example Matches Expression ^[AB]305$ A string beginning with ‘A’ or ‘B’ and ending with ‘305’ [AB]305 A string containing ‘A’ or ‘B’ followed by ‘305’ !TEMP45 Any string that does NOT contain ‘TEMP45’ ^/S45/.*/TEMP45$ A string beginning /S45 and ending with TEMP45 !^/S45 Any string that does not begin with /S45

CHAPTER 5

5 Interpreting the Clash Report Once a Clash set has been run a Clash report will be generated, this section discusses the clash run and describes how you display any clashes found.

5.1

Clash Report

Reports on clashes are presented in a separate window that includes a main menu with dropdown menus, a toolbar and a status bar. A popup menu is available for both reports. There are two types of report, namely, Clash Groups and Clash Detail. Both reports are in tabular format. The reports appear in separate panes, and either or both can be displayed. The pane that is 'Active' has a dark blue title bar; the 'Inactive' pane has a grey title bar. Scroll bars are available for access to data that overspills the panes. Details of the current filter can be displayed in a separate pane, titled Filter, at the bottom of the window.

5.1.1

Clash Groups Report

Each row of this report is dedicated to a clash group. The data in the columns is identified by the column headings. The width of a column can be set by double-clicking on the column heading. The width then toggles between that of the heading and that of the widest data item in the column The left-hand column shows the status of the group, as follows: GREEN tick Approved RED cross Unapproved BLUE question mark Pending GREEN tick superimposed on Conditionally Approved. BLUE question mark Fields in the report are colour-highlighted as follows: YELLOW Indicates the owner discipline, and if appropriate, highlights the element which belongs to the discipline RED UNALLOCATED discipline CYAN Change highlighting.

5.1.2

Clash Detail Report

Each row of this report is dedicated to an individual clash within the group(s) selected in the Clash Groups report. The structure of the report, column one indications and field colour-coding are as described for the Clash Groups report.

5.1.3

Filter Pane

This pane displays the filter criteria and values currently set to limit the data shown on clash reports. The information appears in a two-column table showing criteria in the left-hand column and values in the righthand column.

Exercise 3 – The Clash Report Work through the clash Groups and try to understand why each Clash Group has been created, Assigned and Automatically Approved.

www.aveva.com 27

CHAPTER 7

6 Clash Allocation and Approval It is not always possible to clear all the clashes in Plant Design (PDMS) sometimes it will be necessary to accept or approve a clash. Clash Manager gives you that ability. Once a clash has been approved it can be ignored in future clash runs. Following investigation it may be more appropriate to change the ownership of a clash to another discipline for fixing or clash approval.

6.1

Automatic Approval of Clashes

In the Clash report displayed, there are five clash groups, out of which one is automatically approved.

Rules can be set to automatically approve a clash by a administrator or Clash Coordinator. Select Tools > Settings > Clash Manager Configuration and then select Accept tab Details of setting up of rules is explained in Clash Manager Administration course

www.aveva.com 28

AVEVA Plant (12 Series) Clash Manager TM-1221

6.2

Manual Approval of Clashes

Clashes can also be manually approved, if the user has access rights to do it Access Clash Report by Selecting Tools > Clash Report > Display Report Select the Clash Record which has to be manually approved, Right mouse click and select the Approve option

The Status will change from Unknown to Approved

After approval the colour will change to make it visible

www.aveva.com 29

AVEVA Plant (12 Series) Clash Manager TM-1221

Rerun the same Clash Set, just to check that status of the clash which has been approved manually remains the same

There will be change in colour, so that user can make out that it has been manually approved.

6.3

Clash Allocation

Whilst investigating a clash it may become more appropriate to allocate the clash to the Group Element discipline for correction or approval. We can change the ownership of some Clash Groups to Group Element 2 or Group Element 1 Identify Clash Group Select Set Owner Element

www.aveva.com 30

AVEVA Plant (12 Series) Clash Manager TM-1221

Exercise 4 – The Clash Approval Work through the clash groups and manually approve a clash group and rerun the clash set and check the status of the clash.
