Intergraph Metadata Support

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>”
