The Intergraph reader generates the following metadata:

 

BRACKET SUPPORT

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

Created for each bracket system and associated to the bracket system assembly.

Its value is "Name = <name_1> ID = <id_1>; Name = <name_2> ID = <id_2>; …; Name = <name_n> ID = <id_n>”, where <name_1>, <name_2>, … <name_n> are the support names and <id_1>, <id_2>, …<id_n> are the support ids.

 

COMPARTMENT <name>

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

Created for each compartment which has a child of type “Faces” and is attached to the generic system assembly to which the compartment belongs to.

The <name> field is the name of the compartment; the value is “Faces = <id_1> <id_2>… <id_n> Compartment father = <id>”, where <id_1>, <id_2>…<id_n> are the ids of the faces, and <id> is the id of the compartment father if it exists (there could be a hierarchy of compartments).

Generated when @ImportCompartments = on.

 

END NORMAL

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value is the normal direction of the stiffener at the landing curve end point.

Generated when @CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals = on.

 

END POINT

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value is the landing curve end point.

Generated when @CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals = on.

 

MOUNTING RULE

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value is the mounting rule value as found in the XML.

Generated when @CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals = on.

 

<name>

Type

Entities

Description

double

string

assems

The attributes that are in the XML under “Details” are attached to the main ship assembly.

The <name> field is the attribute name and the double/string is the value of the attribute.

double

string

comps

Physical Properties

Physical properties assigned in the XML to plate systems and bracket child are created as metadata.

The <name> field is the property name and the double/string is the property value.

Generated when @ ImportPlateSystemMetadata = on.

Molder Properties

Molded properties assigned in the XML to plate systems and bracket child are created as metadata.

The <name> field is the property name and the double/string is the property value.

 

NamingCategory

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

comps

Generated for root system assemblies, bracket system assemblies, stiffener/beam/ER components, and member part components. Its value is the the XML field NamingCategory -> LongDesc.

 

OBJECT TYPE

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

comps

Generated for root system assemblies, bracket system assemblies, and stiffener/beam/ER components. Its value can be:

RootSystem
BracketSystem
RootStiffenerSystem
RootBeamSystem
RootERSystem

 

PLANE NAME

Type

Entities

Description

string

surfaces

Created for reference planes. Its value is the name of the reference plane as found in the XML.

Generated when @ImportTopologicalProperties = on or @ ImportCompartments = on.

 

REFERENCE PLANE <n>

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

Created for root systems, for each XML child of type TopologicalProperties -> Boundaries -> RefPlane (the number <n> is just the index of the child).

Its value is the value of this field.

Generated when @ImportTopologicalProperties = on.

 

REFERENCE STRUCTURE <n>

Type

Entities

Description

string

assems

Created for root systems, for each XML child of type TopologicalProperties -> Boundaries -> ReferenceStruct (the number <n> is the index of the child).

Its value is the value of this field.

Generated when @ImportTopologicalProperties = on.

 

START NORMAL

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value is the normal direction of the stiffener at the landing curve start point.

Generated when @CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals = on.

 

START POINT

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value is the landing curve start point.

Generated when @CreateMetadataForStiffenerNormals = on.

 

STIFFENER TYPE

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for each stiffener/beam/ER system component.

Its value is the XML field Molded -> Type.

 

XSECTION DATA

Type

Entities

Description

string

comps

Created for ER systems and member parts in any case, and also for stiffener/beam systems in global analysis.

Its value contains the xsection geometrical data (different for each xsection type) in the form “<data name 1> = <data_value 1>  <data name 2> = <data value 2>… <data name n> = <data value n>”
