Advanced routing using intelligent lines combined with editing features based on MicroStation-like commands make PlantSpace Piping a powerful, easy-to-learn system. The advanced modeling control system (MCS) has no match in the industry for ease of use and allowing for distributed design. Fully-featured automated isometric drawing production systems are included.

PlantSpace Design Series provides a full range of intelligent 3D modeling applications for the engineering and design process of process plants and discrete manufacturing. Built on top of MicroStation and MicroStation TriForma, you have a full suite of tools to produce documentation required to assist in the engineering, construction, and maintenance of the plant.

Design Series provides you with a consistent interface between design modules that operates without live links to a database. JSpace, the object-orientated technology, is the basis on which the PlantSpace family of application software is built.

Using Design Series, you can also

• Generate deliverables from an object model, such as Isometrics, material take-off lists, and bills of materials.
• Produce Orthographic drawings using the TriForma Drawing Extraction Manager.
• TriForma interference detection using the Detection module of the Bentley Interference Manager.
• Generate input files for stress analysis programs.

Design Series uses component-based storage of data from your project database through the Model Control System (MCS).
