Bentley CloudWorx:Product Description

Open very large point-clouds (up to 1billion) directly within PlantSpace

Use the PlantSpace tools to View, Rotate,Zoom at reasonable speed

View in multiple modes (intensity color,gray scale, texture mapping)

Use PlantSpace tools to dimension andmeasure.

Determine pipe sizes and centerline

Fit planar surfaces (walls, floors, beamsetc)

Bentley CloudWorx:Product Advantage

Provides Easy Access to Reality within PDS - anytime

Bring a new level of depth & detail to PlantSpace

projects (as-built data, direct data extraction, design

verifications, construction monitoring, asset

operation and management the wholly grail of life-cycle management)

Provides value to a broad spectrum PlantSpace Users

CloudWorx brings reality directly to everyPlantSpace users desktop across a very broad

spectrum of applications, including structural

design, piping design, equipment, and electrical.

WorkFlow Example 1

Creating an accurate as-built

Launch Bentley CloudWorx in PlantSpace

Open point clouds

Isolate area of interestFit pipe centerlines from points

Connect centerlines

Route PDS piping components

DONE!!


6/24

Bentley CloudWorx opens in

PlantSpace as an mdl

application, allowing the user

to select the appropriate

point cloud ModelSpace


7/24

The point clouds provide the road map for

creating an accurate as-built using CloudWorx

and PlantSpace tools together


8/24

CloudWorx tools allow the user

to quickly hide portions of the

cloud that are not of immediate

interest.


9/24

Slicing the point clouds along a horizontal or

vertical place provides a clear view in either plan or

elevation


10/24

The CloudWorx Fence to Pipe command allows

fast identification of piping center lines and

diameters


11/24

Multiple center lines can be fit quickly and

easily by adjusting clipping planes and views.


12/24

The center lines can then be

connected to create a single polyline

with the CloudWorx Connect Pipes

command.


13/24

PlantSpace tools are now used to turn

the polyline into a Intelligent Line

String.


14/24

Intelligent piping components are then

placed on the Intelligent Line, completing

the as-built.


15/24

WorkFlow Example 2

Create and Clash Check New DesignDevelop initial routing line based on

exiting drawings.

Clash check against routing line asinitial check

Place PlantSpace components on lineto refine potential clash areas.

Adjust design as required

DONE!!


16/24

A proposed pipe

routing is represented

as a 3D polyline in adgn file


17/24

Point clouds are

opened for reference Clipping planes are

adjusted to improve the

view


18/24


19/24

The polyline can be

turned into PlantSpace

piping for further checking


20/24

The clash is now runagainst the actual piping

components


21/24


22/24

Examining the clashes is

easy using multiple

Microstation windows.


23/24

The designer can ignore the clash or

adjust the design to eliminate it.


24/24

Summary

Bentley CloudWorx with PlantSpace

provides a fast easy solution for a

wide variety of engineering and

design applications

Bentley CloudWorx is easy to learn

and results in immediate

productivity in the design process.
