The data that defines the piping specification is the piping specification data. The business rules that apply to the piping specification are the piping specification rules. For more information, see Piping Specification Rules: An Overview, page 107. The data that defines the piping materials class is the piping materials class data. For more information, see Piping Materials Class Data Sheet, page 31. The business rules that manage the behavior of the piping commodities within this service are the piping materials class rules. For more information, see Piping Materials Class Rules: An Overview, page 58. The data that represents the rules for selecting piping commodities within the piping materials class is the piping commodity filter. For more information, see Piping Commodity Filter Sheet, page 26. The standard notes that apply to a specific piping materials class or to an individual piping commodity, piping specialty, instrument, or connection commodity in the piping specification are the piping specification notes. The data that represents the rules for selecting gaskets, bolts, nuts, and washers at bolted joints and the rules for selecting clamps at mechanical joints within the piping materials class is the connection commodity filter. For more information, see one of the following: Bolt Selection Filter Sheet, page 61 Clamp Selection Filter Sheet, page 63 Gasket Selection Filter Sheet, page 71 Nut Selection Filter Sheet, page 79 Washer Selection Filter Sheet, page 102
The data that is specific to the engineering office, and is used for the material control of piping commodities, is the piping commodity material control data. This data is a function of the contractor commodity code. The data that determines the Common Industry Material Identification Standards (CIMIS) size-dependent commodity code from the contractor's size-independent commodity code is the size-dependent commodity code data. This data is a function of the contractor commodity code (or the industry commodity code) and the sizes for each piping point. Note
CIMIS is a cross-industry initiative to provide common identifiers and standard descriptions for commodity materials used in maintenance, operations, construction, and OEM activities.
The data that is specific to the engineering office, and is used for the material control of valve operators, actuators, and appurtenances, is the valve operator material control data. This data is a function of the valve operator catalog part number. For more information, see Valve Operator Material Control Data Sheet, page 41 and Multiport Valve Operator Data Sheet, page 43. The piping specification data that is required for reporting loose material and provided by the vendor is the vendor-supplied loose material data. This data is a function of the contractor commodity code and optionally the size. The data that is specific to the engineering office, is specific to a class of piping specialties, and is used for the material control of those piping specialties, is the piping specialty class data. This data is a function of the piping specialty tag number, and a size range for generic piping specialties. For more information, see Piping Specialty Class Data Sheet, page 45. The data that is specific to the engineering office, is specific to a class of instruments, and is used for the material control of those instruments, is the instrument class data. This data is a function of the instrument tag number and a size range for generic instruments. For more information, see Instrument Class Data Sheet, page 51.

The contractor commodity code is determined from the piping commodity filter of the Piping Specification on the basis of the piping materials class, the short code, and the size. The contractor commodity code can reflect variations in size or schedule, or the contractor commodity code can be independent of both size and schedule. The industry commodity code is independent of both size and schedule and is derived from the piping commodity material control data on the basis of the contractor commodity code. If the contractor commodity code reflects variations in size or schedule, it is possible to have many contractor commodity codes correlated with one industry commodity code.
The catalog data is determined from the piping commodity class data and the piping commodity part data of the Piping Catalog on the basis of the commodity code and optionally the schedule or the size. The piping specification writer can use either the contractor commodity code or an industry commodity code as the commodity code basis for the Piping Catalog. You can set which commodity code is used on the Default Project Options Sheet, page 116. Use of the contractor commodity code has the advantage of not requiring a correlation with an industry commodity code. However, use of the industry commodity code provides the ability for the client to use different contractors, yet only correlate the commodity code system of the client once. Related Topics Instrument Class Data Sheet, page 51 Multiport Valve Operator Data Sheet, page 43 Piping Commodity Filter Sheet, page 26 Piping Commodity Matl Control Data Sheet, page 35 Piping Materials Class Data Sheet, page 31 Piping Specialty Class Data Sheet, page 45 Valve Operator Material Control Data Sheet, page 41
Pipe Specifications: An Overview number of sizes in addition to the first size and second size, and the units of measure for each size. If you do not include a unit of measure in the string, the unit of measure for the first size, defined in the First Size Units column, is used. Note
You can append the keywords Primary (primary size) and Secondary (secondary size) to the column headings for the nominal piping diameters at each end in the workbook for the part data to assign the size to a specific piping point instead of using the Multisize Option property. Fittings that require two sizes will be assumed to have the primary size assigned to the first piping point and the secondary size assigned to the second piping point. Multi-size fittings with three or more sizes must have the sizes assigned to the appropriate piping points by means of the multisize option property. Fittings with exactly two sizes and three or more piping points may have the size assigned to the appropriate piping point by using these keywords.
Comments - Type an optional brief description of the piping commodity item. Selection Basis - Enter the selection basis code. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Selection Basis sheet in the Codelist Number column. Jacketed Piping Basis - Type a jacketed piping code to indicate whether the piping commodity is required for the core piping, the jacketed piping, or the jumper tubing. Valid entries are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Jacketed Piping Basis sheet in the Codelist Number column. This option allows the piping designer to select fittings from the same piping materials class on the basis of whether the core, the jacket, or the jumper is being modeled. Maximum Temperature - Enter the maximum temperature for which this piping commodity is intended within this piping materials class. Include the units of measure, F or C for example, when specifying this value. A maximum temperature is required for those piping commodities that are not suitable for the full range of temperature for which the piping materials class is intended. Minimum Temperature - Enter the minimum temperature for which this piping commodity is intended within this piping materials class. Include the units of measure, F or C for example, when specifying this value. A minimum temperature is required for those piping commodities that are not suitable for the full range of temperature for which the piping materials class is intended. Note
Be careful if you decide to define values for Maximum Temperature and Minimum Temperature because the user must enter a temperature for the pipe run before the software will find the commodity. An alternate,
Pipe Specifications: An Overview better method is to use the Service Limits sheet. For more information, see Service Limits Sheet, page 95. Engineering Tag - Type the valve tag number. Engineering tags are used for valves on P&IDs instead of longer commodity codes. A one-to-one relationship exists between the valve tag number and the commodity code. Valve tags are useful for automated annotation on orthographic and isometric drawings because the valve tag is shorter than the corresponding commodity code. Piping designers can use engineering tags to select valves in the model. Commodity Code - Type the commodity code. The commodity code is the code with which the part is identified in the market. The commodity code along with the nominal piping diameter and schedule values uniquely define the piping commodity. The commodity code can be size-dependent or size-independent. Fabrication Category Override - Type the fabrication category code. The fabrication code identifies whether the component is shop- or field-fabricated. Valid Fabrication Category codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Fabrication Type sheet in the Codelist Number column. Supply Responsibility Override - Type the supply responsibility code. The supply responsibility code identifies the party responsible for supplying the commodity. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Supply Responsibility sheet in the Codelist Number column. First Size Schedule - Type the schedule or thickness code for the first size end of this piping commodity. This column is required when the commodity code does not include a schedule. If you enter a thickness code, the units of measurement for the wall thickness can be different from the units of measurement for the nominal piping diameter. You can also use the keyword MATCH to have the piping commodity use the same schedule as the pipe for the component. If you use MATCH, the commodity code for the part First Size Schedule and Second Size Schedule columns must be set to a valid size. MATCH works only if the commodity code does not contain the schedule size. Second Size Schedule - Type the schedule or thickness code for the second size end of this piping commodity. This column is required when the commodity code does not include a schedule. If you enter a thickness code, the units of measurement for the wall thickness can be different from the units of measurement for the nominal piping diameter. You can also use the keyword MATCH to have the piping commodity use the same schedule as the pipe for the component. If you use MATCH, the commodity code for the part First Size Schedule and Second Size Schedule columns must be set to a valid size. MATCH works only if the commodity code does not contain the schedule size.
Pipe Specifications: An Overview Reportable Commodity Code - Type a commodity code for the object to create when the piping designer places a primary commodity code item. For example, you might want a paddle spacer reported for each instance of a paddle blind placed in the model. In this case, the paddle spacer is reported, but not graphically placed in the model. Quantity of Reportable Parts - Type an integer value that represents the quantity of objects to be reported per instance of the piping commodity. Typically, this value is one, but the value may be greater than one. Associated Commodity Code - Type a commodity code for the object to place when the piping designer places a primary commodity code item. For example, the primary commodity code item is a valve that always requires a spacer, and the spacer is actually supplied with the valve. Hence, the valve must be ordered but the spacer does not. However, the spacer must be modeled because it is a part of the pipeline with the valve. Bend Radius Multiplier - Type an optional NPD multiplier that you want to use to define the bend radius. This value is required only for pipe bends. The bend radius for elbows is defined in the Piping Commodity Class Data. If you define a value in this column, do not define a value in the Bend Radius column. Bend Radius - Type an optional allowable bend radius as an absolute value. If you define a value in this column, do not define a value in the Bend Radius Multiplier column. This value is required only for pipe bends. Number Of Miter Cuts - Type the number of miter cuts required for a mitered elbow. This value must be a positive integer. This value is required only for mitered elbows. This box is optional in that you can specify the number of miters during placement. First Size UOM Basis In Catalog - Enter the units of measure basis code. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Catalog Units of Measure Basis sheet in the Codelist Number column. Second Size UOM Basis In Catalog - Enter the units of measure basis code. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Catalog Units of Measure Basis sheet in the Codelist Number column. PDS Modifier - Specify an optional decimal value and is required only for the following data, if variation in that data is not reflected in the commodity code. By definition, this property should not be used, unless required.
For nipples, the piping commodity class data typically includes the nipple length. However, if this is not the case, the piping specification writer should use this column to specify the length.
For plain piping and tubing, the piping commodity class data typically includes the purchase length. However, if this is not the case, the piping specification writer should use this column to specify the length. For orifice flanges, the piping commodity class data typically includes the orientation of the taps, if the orifice flange has two taps. The specification writer has a requirement to specify whether the two taps are oriented 180 degrees apart on the outside diameter of the flange or 90 degrees apart. The more common situation is that the taps are oriented 180 degrees apart, where a tap is located along both the positive and negative local vertical axis. When the two taps are being oriented 90 degrees apart, a tap should be oriented 45 degrees on each side of the local positive vertical axis for the orifice flange. The commodity code is assumed to vary with tap orientation. However, if this is not the case, the piping specification writer should use this column.
Preferred Pipe Length - Specify the preferred pipe length for plain piping. This allows the specification writer to define the company preference for either design or procurement considerations. Piping Note 1 - Specify the standard notes that you want to associate with the commodity. Standard notes are defined on the Standard Notes Data sheet. Alt Reportable Commodity Code - Specify the contractor commodity code for an alternate reportable piping commodity that is to be created with the primary piping commodity on the basis of the piping materials class. In an isometric drawing, only the primary piping commodity is depicted graphically. The materials list includes the short description of both the primary piping commodity and the reportable piping commodity.

Pipe Specifications: An Overview surface of the tank. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Pipe Bend Radius By User Option sheet in the Codelist Number column. Bolt Length Calculation Option - Enables or disables the calculation of bolt lengths. If disabled, bolts are procured on the basis of the flange quantity, the nominal piping diameter, and the pressure rating, where the bolt lengths have been defined in a specification. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Bolt Length Calculation Option sheet in the Codelist Number column. Non-Radial Tangent Branch Outside Diameter Multiplier - Type the multiplier for the piping header outside diameter to be used to determine the protrusion of the branch pipe into the header pipe when the non-radial branch is tangential with respect to the header pipe. Typically, the protrusion of the branch into the header is 0.5 x the header outside diameter for a tangential, non-radial branch. Non-Radial Offset Branch Outside Diameter Multiplier - Type the multiplier for the piping header outside diameter to be used to determine the protrusion of the branch pipe into the header pipe when the non-radial branch is offset from the header centerline, but not tangential. Typically, the protrusion of the branch into the header is 0.375 x the header outside diameter for an offset, non-radial branch. Piping Commodity Catalog Part No Basis Option - Enter the code to use. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Piping Cmdty Ctlg Part No Basis Opt sheet in the Codelist Number column. This option allows you to enable the use of the size-dependent commodity code as the piping commodity catalog part number in lieu of concatenating the piping commodity catalog part number from the industry commodity code and the nominal piping diameter for each of the piping points. If you have a size-dependent commodity numbering system such that the size is already appended as a prefix or suffix to the commodity code base, then you may prefer to use the commodity code base and size ranges in the piping specification, but use the size-dependent commodity code in the piping catalog. Note that the sizedependent contractor commodity code from the piping commodity filter must be the same as the size-dependent contractor commodity code from the piping commodity material control data. Piping Commodity Procurement Data Option - Specifies whether the contractor commodity code or the industry commodity code is to be used to query the piping commodity procurement data:
Not applicable (5) Determine procurement data based on contractor commodity code (10) Determine procurement data based on industry commodity code (15)

Pipe Specifications: An Overview Bolt Diameter Equivalence Option - Specifies whether the bolt diameter equivalence rule for reporting the bolt diameter is enabled (10) or disabled (5). If you do not specify a value, the default is to disable the rule. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Bolt Diameter Equivalence Option sheet in the Codelist Number column. For example, enable this option when you are required to use ASME fittings in a metric model, but also use real metric bolts. The actual bolt equivalence values are defined in the Bolt Diameter Equivalence.xls workbook on the Bolt Diameter Equivalence Rule sheet. For more information, see Bolt Diameter Equivalence Rule Sheet, page 108. Gasket Selection for Mismatched Bolted Ends - Specifies how the software selects gaskets for joints formed by different bolted ends (different pressure rating, end preparation, or end standard) but that are based on equivalent drilling templates. Enter a codelist value 5 to select the gasket based on the nominal piping diameter, pressure rating, end preparation, and end standard of both bolted ends. This provides the flexibility to specify the gasket to be used when the default gasket normally used with one of the bolted ends differs from the default gasket normally used for the other bolted end. In this situation, an error is reported if the gasket has only been defined in the gasket selection filter on the basis of one of the two bolted ends. Enter a codelist value 10 to arbitrarily select the gasket based on only one of the two bolted ends when you have not defined the gasket on the basis of both bolted ends. If you choose this option, you assume responsibility that the gasket selected is acceptable. This approach reduces the number of required gasket records for a piping materials class with a number of unique, but compatible, bolted ends, where the piping engineer's intent is to reduce the material handling costs by reducing the number of gaskets maintained in inventory. Note that, if you do specify a gasket based on both of the applicable bolted ends, the correct gasket is selected rather than another gasket based on an arbitrary bolted end. This is the default setting. Undefined Service Limits Rule Option - Specifies if the absence of any temperature-pressure data is to be reported as an error, which must be corrected by the piping designer; or is reported as a warning, which can be ignored by the piping designer. This option only applies to a piping materials class where the optional Service Limits rule has been specified. For more information, see Service Limits Sheet, page 95. This option does not apply to the selection of a piping commodity from the piping commodity filter on the basis of the maximum (or minimum) temperature. Nor does is apply to the use of the piping commodity service limits data.
Enter a codelist value of 5 for the absence of any temperature-pressure data to be reported as an error (the default setting). Enter a codelist value of 10 for the absence of any temperature-pressure data to be reported as a warning.
