Definitions
The following terms are used throughout this document and are explained here in order to clarify
their meaning.
Pipeline - A set of components, each of which is connected to at least one of the other
components in the set. Components are connected if their coordinates match within the
tolerance currently defined.
Component - A physical, or real, item that can be assembled into a piping system. Components
include pipe, valves, gaskets, flanges, instruments, supports, bolts and fittings, such as tees,
olets and elbows. Usually, a component has one or more coordinates, which can be thought of
as connection points that define how they connect with other components. In some cases, the
component is associated with, but not connected into, the pipeline. Associated components are
additional items needed to complete the pipeline, such as a chain for a valve operator, or
quantities of paint.
Material - In many cases, components of the same type share properties. At a minimum, they
have the same item code and description, but can also share other properties. A material is a
"typical" component. The PCF has syntax for describing material properties.
Information Item - An annotation that is required to be output on the isometric drawing.
Information items include user-defined messages, connection data (connections between the
current pipeline and other pipelines or equipment), reference dimensions, spool data and many
other examples. While a component is a physical item that you can purchase, an information
item is something that adds to the isometric drawing generated by Isogen.
Attribute - Data that defines a property of a pipeline, component, information item or material
object in the PCF. An attribute consists of a name and associated value, which can be a string
or a number.
System - In some cases, a PCF can contain more than one pipeline. Each pipeline must be
connected to one or more of the other pipelines in the PCF. This set of connected pipelines is
known as a system.
Spool - A grouping of pipe and components that can be conveniently assembled in a workshop.
Personal Isogen has an inherent set of rules that drive the identification of spools and
automatically splits the components in a PCF pipeline into a set of spools. You can think of a
spool, as a sub-set of a pipeline, although some components, such as Erection items that are
connected in to the pipeline at the work site, may not be allocated to a spool.
Style - The settings that control how Isogen formats the drawing it generates from the data in
the PCF. The style is independent of the PCF, meaning that you can process the same PCF
through different styles to produce a different drawing each time.
What's New in the PCF Reference Guide
The following changes have been made to the Piping Component File Reference Guide.
Version 2016
The Piping Component File (PCF) syntax has been extended to support an additional 35
pipeline header attributes. For more information, see Miscellaneous Attributes in the table
located in Pipeline Header Information (on page 20). (P2 AL:15205)
SECTION 1
PCF Syntax
The PCF is a text file. The following formatting rules must be obeyed if it is to be properly
interpreted by Isogen.
All header information must start in column position one (1) and must precede any other
entries.
The PIPELINE-REFERENCE attribute must start in column position one (1).
Pipeline data must precede any component data.
Component, connection and information item data can be presented in any order.
Pipe, component and connection identifiers must start in column position one (1).
Pipe, component and connection attributes must start in column position five (5).
The MATERIALS section, which includes component material data, must start in column
position one (1) and must the last section in the PCF.
In the MATERIALS section, the material identifier pointer for each MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER
attribute must start in column position one (1).
The item code and description entries for each MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute must start
in column position five (5).
All data entries must be separated from the attribute identifier by at least one blank
character.
The length of any line in the PCF must not exceed 1024 characters.
No TAB spaces can be present in the file.
The following diagram shows the basic layout for a single pipeline PCF:

SECTION 2
ISOGEN-FILES ISOGEN.FLS Identifies the file that specifies all of the input
and output filenames used during an Isogen
run to generate an isometric drawing. It must
appear as the first line in the PCF.
Specification Attributes:
Each component can override the default set for the pipeline, which causes a
specification change indication to appear on the isometric drawing.
Miscellaneous Attributes:
FLUID-CODE String Specifies the short code for the fluid type
intended to flow through the pipeline.
STRESS-CATEGORY Yes, No, Visual, Specifies the category for the stress
Simple, 1, 2, 3 calculation.
Weld Prefixes:
START-CO-ORDS E/W N/S Elev Defines the point that Isogen uses as the
start of the pipeline. The start point
determines the start of weld and part
number sequences.
Coordinate Offset:
Component Attributes
Each component is described by a number of lines of data in the file. The following table
displays syntax that is used to describe a component.
Materials
Each component in the PCF is linked to an associated material entry, which is located at the end
of the file. The material data can contain attributes that are shared by all the components with
the same material link. The link between the component and its material is defined by a
MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute. For more information, see Material Attributes (on page 70).
When IDFGEN encounters a component that has no item code specified, by default the
component is excluded from the material list. However, you can use Option Switch 74 to
override this behavior. When this option is in effect, components with no item code in the PCF
are assigned a blank item code and description and displayed on the material list.
To be displayed on the material list, a weld must be assigned an item code in the PCF.
For more information about option switches, see the Isogen Option Switches Reference
Guide.
You can control whether components are output to the material list with the NOT-ON-
MATERIAL-LIST attribute. For more information, see Material Information Attributes (on
page 329).
Coordinates
Components have two types of coordinate data
External keypoints – Points at which the component connects to other components of the
pipeline or at which the pipeline terminates – vents, drains, offline instruments, blank
flanges, or caps.
Internal keypoints – Points needed to completely define the geometry of the component,
such as the center point of a bend.
For information regarding the full set of keypoints required for an individual component,
see Component Information Sheets.
External Keypoints
The following examples show the different types of external keypoints that can appear in a PCF:
END-POINT 1000.00 2000.00 3000.00 4 PF FEMALE
BRANCH1-POINT 1234.56 78910.1 1121.31 100
END-POINT 59166.0000 119808.0000 1464.4375 18 BW INSULATION-SINGLE
Nominal size Defines the nominal size (N) in the units of UNITS-BORE.
Connection type and Gender are only required if the connection type differs from that
implied by the SKEY, such as a component that has two flanged ends and one welded end.
The INSULATION and TRACING keywords are used if it is necessary to override the status
of the component, as indicated by the INSULATION and/or TRACING keywords. For
example, a TEE component can have its branch leg double-traced, while the main run is
single-traced. It is permissible to have both INSULATION-* and TRACING-* on the external
keypoint line.
The optional parameters can appear in any order. The following line is valid, indicating a
keypoint with a female, socket- welded end, insulated with no tracing.
END-POINT co-ords bore INSULATION-SINGLE FEMALE TRACING-OFF SW
Internal Keypoints
Internal keypoints are expressed using the following syntax:
CENTRE-POINT 1000.00 2000.00 3000.00
CO-ORDS 1234.56 78910.1 1121.31
Although bolts can be expressed in the PCF using the ADDITIONAL-ITEM attribute, the
recommended best practice is to use a bolt component entry (BOLT) with coordinates matching
those of one end of a component in the pipeline, usually a flange or a gasket. While it is possible
to define a bolt as an associated component, doing so is not the recommended practice.
Associated Components: Bolts
The example below shows the syntax used to associate a bolt with a gasket. The parent/child
relationship between the two components is defined using the how the COMPONENT-
IDENTIFIER and MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attributes

The CATEGORY attribute is only required when including bolts with a nozzle component.
Bolts included with a gasket use the CATEGORY attribute that has been set for the main
component.
Olet
Where there is more than one olet at a position on a pipe, it is sometimes necessary to
associate a weld to the appropriate item.

The other type of information item that can be associated with a component is a termination
reference, which contains information about connections to other pipelines, equipment, or about
end points of the pipeline. This category includes the following:
END-CONNECTION-PIPELINE
END-CONNECTION-EQUIPMENT
END-POSITION-OPEN
END-POSITION-CLOSED
END-POSITION-VENT
END-POSITION-DRAIN
END-POSITION-NULL
For detailed information, see Component Information Sheets.
In each case, the information item can be associated by starting in column five (5) and omitting
a co-ordinate entry.

Information Items
Information items are entries in the PCF that define annotations to be displayed by Isogen on
the isometric drawing.
The following examples show the basic syntax for an information item (Example 1) and a
sample entry from a PCF (Example 2).
Example 1:

Messages
Isogen supports several message enclosure box types that can be positioned on the isometric
drawing. Each type has a unique attribute identifier. Also, to give flexibility in the data extraction
process, you can either associate a message with a pipeline component or enter it in the PCF
as a separate entry.
The following table lists the available message types:
MESSAGE Un-boxed
MESSAGE-SQUARE
MESSAGE-POINTED
MESSAGE-ROUND
MESSAGE-CIRCLE
MESSAGE-DOUBLE-CIRCLE
MESSAGE-ELLIPSE
The following is an example of a typical message associated with a component:
VALVE
MESSAGE-SQUARE
TEXT data
The following is an example of a typical message included as a separate entry and not
associated with a component:
MESSAGE-ROUND
CO-ORDS E/W N/S ELEV
TEXT data
UNDIMENSIONED
MESSAGE attribute types must be positioned in column position five (5) for associated
occurrences and in position one (1) for separate occurrences.
All other attributes must start in column position five (5).
Data associated with any attribute must be separated from the attribute name by at least
one (1) blank character.
Use the $ character in any TEXT data line to signal a new line, such as when a message is
output over two lines. When this feature is used on square, pointed, round and circle type
messages, the box enclosure dynamically expands both horizontally and vertically to
enclose the message.
A single @ character can be used at the start or end of any TEXT data line to obtain leading
or trailing blanks.
The STATUS attribute is used to determine whether the message is dimensioned.
Messages placed on a PIPE or BEND component are dimensioned, unless STATUS
UNDIMENSIONED is set.
Reference Dimensions
The Isogen system provides a facility that allows reference dimensions between the pipeline and
the center/datum line of a variety of project elements to be included on the plotted isometric
drawing.
The following sketch indicates a typical example:
In the previous sketch, there is a pair of reference dimensions, 430 and 1493 MM, indicating the
distance between the pipe and the centerline of the referenced item, Vessel E-683. The
direction of the vessel centerline is also indicated.
The following examples illustrate two typical reference dimension data layouts.
Primary Reference Dimension
Referenced equipment in primary direction using simple ITEM-DIRECTION to orient:
REFERENCE-DIMENSION (Item Identifier)

centerline.
CO-ORDS E/W N/S ELEV Specifies the coordinate location of the other end of
the centerline.
MESSAGE type Specifies the type of box enclosure for the output of
the referenced item identifier.
For information about message box types, see
Messages (on page 50).
The MESSAGE attribute can be input without a type if
an unboxed message is required.
SKEY Item Category Default Dotted Line No. Default Plotted Line Type
BLD* Building 2
PIP* Pipeline 4
WAL* Wall 3
The * character in the SKEY is used to specify that the normal dotted line type should be
used for the referenced item centerline depiction on the plotted isometric. You can replace this
character with the following:
A single blank character to indicate that the default dashed/dotted line type associated with
a particular SKEY is to be used.
A single digit (1 to 4) to indicate that one of the four numbered dashed/dotted line numbers
should be used.

Thickness Measurement Location
A TML, or Thickness Measurement Location, identifies the location on a piping system that
requires inspection on a regular basis. Although the TML is basically a message that is output
on the isometric drawing, it carries additional attributes relevant to inspection, such as a tag that
uniquely identifies the TML (and is used as the content of the message) and an enclosure style,
which controls how the TML is plotted. All of the supported TML attributes are listed in the table
below.
Attribute Remarks
CO-ORDS E/W N/S ELEV Defines the point in the pipeline where the TML is
taken.
The example below shows a section of the PCF that defines three Thickness Measurement
Locations along a section pipe, followed by the resulting isometric output.

Other Information Items
The table below shows a range of information items related to a pipeline that can be included in
a PCF. They are not piping components, but each one fulfills a particular function, that, when
included, add to the overall detailed information that is output on the generated isometric
drawing. Mandatory attributes for each information item are listed under Item Identifier.
Optional attributes, if applicable, are listed under Remarks.
In the PCF, each information item is treated on an individual basis. Any number of each
type can be included in an individual file.

Material Attributes
A material entry holds a set of attributes that are shared by all the components that are linked to
the same material. In the PCF, the link between the component and its material is defined by the
MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute. This stand-alone attribute allows the unique specification of
a material and mirrors the combination of item code, description and material attributes. The
MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute is added at the component level to specify a unique material
pointer.
The material pointer can be any string that is unique within the PCF and need not be
anything more sophisticated than an index number, such as 1, 2, 3, and so forth.

If additional material attributes are required, declare them as part of the PIPELINE
HEADER using ITEM-ATTRIBUTE statements and then enter values for them in the
MATERIALS section.
Include a MATERIALS section at the end of the PCF.
As a minimum, enter ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION attributes for each material
referenced in the PCF.
For more information about using the ITEM-CODE/ITEM-DESCRIPTION/ITEM-
ATTRIBUTES attributes, see Appendix: Superseded PCF Syntax (on page 377).
Additional Material Attributes
The PCF syntax supports up to ten user-defined attributes that can be attached to each material
entry. You can use these attributes to map properties that are available in the host system
reference data. These properties can be plotted on the material list and output in Isogen
generated reports.
You enter user-defined material attributes in the MATERIALS section. However, in order to
ensure a consistent treatment of these attributes across a set of PCFs, declare the field in the
PIPELINE HEADER section of the PCF using the following syntax:
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE0 attribute_name
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE1 attribute_name
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE2 attribute_name
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE3 attribute_name
Each ITEM-ATTRIBUTE contains the name for the user attribute that is used in the PCF. For
example, to declare the CLASS, MATERIAL, SCHEDULE and GEOMSTD user attributes, use the
following syntax:
PIPELINE-REFERENCE P100
<PIPELINE ATTRIBUTES>
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE0 CLASS
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE1 MATERIAL
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE2 SCHEDULE
ITEM-ATTRIBUTE3 GEOMSTD

Bends
There are two basic categories of bends:
Pulled/Fabricated Bends (manufactured from pipe)
Fitting Bends
Each category consists of the following variations of the standard bend type.
Flanged bends
Return bends
Lobster back bends
Mitre bends
Long radius bends (curved pipe)
Multi-axis bends
These bend types must be specified by the correct SKEY in the PCF.
Pulled Bends
In the PCF, a pulled (or pipe) bend is usually modeled as a separate component (a bend). In
reality, though, a single length of pipe consists of a pulled (or pipe) bend with sections of straight
pipe on either side.

In the following Isogen-generated graphic, note that no welds are shown, and the dimension is
given to the center of the bend.
The bend does not appear separately in the material take-off (MTO), but its length is added to
the length of pipe, presuming that the bend ITEM-CODE is set correctly
In the PCF, the bend ITEM-CODE should match that of the pipe from which the bend is
formed.
The convention for ANGLE in the PCF is shown in the following illustration.
No additional syntax is required in the PCF over and above a standard pipe bend, as the
drawing appearance depends solely on an ISOGEN control facility based on a threshold value
of BEND-RADIUS.
Fitting Bends
Bends can also be pre-fabricated fitting components. In the PCF, these types of bends are still
defined with two END-POINT attributes and a CENTRE-POINT attribute. Additionally, though,
their end types and welding are specified according to the SKEY, such as PBFL, PBSW, and so
forth.
Multi-Axis Pipe
Fitting bends that have two changes of direction are referred to as multi-axis pipes. You can
define a multi-axis pipe in the PCF using a standard BEND component entry with a second
CENTRE-POINT attribute and the SKEY BM**, where ** represents any of the standard end
types, such as, for example, flanged, screwed, or socket.

Return, or "U", bends are also defined with two CENTRE-POINT attributes, and are distinguished
by the use of SKEY BE** or BU+D.
Fixed Pipe with Change of Status
When representing a change of status, such as Tracing, Insulation, Piping or other specification,
at a location along a fixed pipe, you must include two adjacent fixed pipes in the PCF, with each
bearing the same UCI:

Olets
An olet is a special type of fitting that provides a self-reinforced branch welded to the side of a
pipe. The branch connection can be of any type, such as welded, screwed, and so forth. In the
PCF, a CENTRE-POINT and BRANCH1-POINT coordinate is required. The CENTRE-POINT
must lie on the center-line of the main pipe.
The following two drawings show the connection points on a butt weld type of olet (A) and a
socket type olet (B).
In the previous PCF, the main pipe/olet weld is given a location at the center point
(LOCATION CP), and the olet/branch weld is given a location at the branch point
(LOCATION B1P).
When the PCF contains a definition of the main pipe, it is not necessary to split the main
PIPE element at the olet. Instead, it should be passed in the PCF as a single item.
Penetration Plates
A penetration plate is a specialized item used in shipbuilding applications. Where one or more
pipes pass through a bulkhead or deck, it is common to fabricate a single assembly (the
penetration spool) that consists of sections of pipe, plus a plate through which they all pass. The
penetration spool is fabricated from the plate and pipe sections and then the assembly is welded
into place as a single unit in the ship.
In the previous illustration, three separate pipes form a single spool. Because this configuration
violates the basic rule that all components must be connected in a PCF, a special component,
PENETRATION-PLATE, is used to link the pipes together to form a spool.
To describe a penetration spool in the PCF, there must be at least one PIPE and one
PENETRATION-PLATE, and the PENETRATION-PLATE must possess all of the following:
A CENTRE-POINT attribute that lies on the center line of the PIPE
It is not necessary to split the pipe into two sections.
A PLATE-DIRECTION attribute that defines the orientation of the plate in the Isogen-
generated drawing.
A PLATE-THICKNESS attribute that defines the thickness of the plate.

Plate Direction
Isogen draws a schematic representation of the plate, and it is aligned in one of the principal
directions: E-W, N-S or U-D.
Penetration plates have many different forms. If the plate is rectangular, or has one obvious
principal axis, the PLATE-DIRECTION attribute is relatively easy to determine. If the plate is
circular, or symmetrical, then an arbitrary choice must be made. Provided the direction is
orthogonal to the PIPE running through the plate, any suitable direction can be chosen.
However, if the penetration plate has multiple pipes, then the PLATE-DIRECTION should be
chosen to align with the piping layout; if not, a confusing drawing may result. For example, if the
pipes are aligned along the E-W axis, set the PLATE-DIRECTION attribute the same axis
(EAST or WEST).
Penetration Sleeves
In some cases, the pipe is not attached directly to the plate but passes through a sleeve that is
in turn-welded, clamped, or bolted to the plate. There are many different styles of attachment.
The recommended modeling procedure for this situation is to represent the sleeve as a
SUPPORT positioned at the CENTRE-POINT of the PENETRATION-PLATE element.
Penetration sleeves that have been modeled as supports are displayed on the isometric
drawing. Use support SKEY SLVE, and position the support at the appropriate penetration plate
center points. The following examples show a section of the PCF containing the necessary
syntax for a penetration part sleeve and the resulting isometric output.

Pipe supports carry a nominal size since they are typically manufactured to fit the pipe they
are supporting.
The default SKEY for an Isogen pipe support is 01HG, which generates the standard double
parallel lines support representation:
A number of the Isogen-standard supports are directional, and the PCF must include a
SUPPORT-DIRECTION attribute that specifies the orientation of the support on the drawing. You
must define SUPPORT-DIRECTION using one of the six standard primary directions: EAST,
NORTH, UP, WEST, SOUTH, or DOWN.

In the previous illustration, the duck foot support is shown attached to another component (the
elbow). The default support, 01HG, is not drawn if it is positioned on another component.
Supports can carry a set of additional attributes that can be used to pass additional detail to pipe
stress software, such as CAESAR II, that can read a PCF. For more detailed information, see
the component data sheet for SUPPORT.
Multiple supports can be present at the same point.
Support Welds
Support welds are welds that are associated with the construction of the support itself or the
attachment of the support to the pipe or structure. Support welds can appear in the ISGOEN-
generated weld report and can be assigned numbers. Support welds should always appear in
the PCF as associated welds (see "Associated Components" on page 39). You can associate
any number of support welds with a single support. Because the support weld has only one
coordinate, it is not necessary to define a LOCATION attribute.

Pipe Trunnions
A trunnion is a pipe support formed from pipe. Usually, a trunnion is welded to the pipe or other
component that it supports, but no connection for fluid flow is made. However, since the pipe
used is identical to that used for the process fluid, there is often a requirement for the
material/quantity to appear in the isometric material take-off (MTO).
If the requirement is that the trunnion appears on the isometric, then you must model it as a pipe
with coordinates to define length and orientation. To ensure that the software correctly handles
welds and the cut-piece end preparations, model the trunnion as attached to other pipe using
the TEE-SET-ON component.
A trunnion connected to a component (such as an elbow) should be connected using a tap
connection. In the special case of a pipe support at the center point of an elbow, you can use a
teed-elbow with the trunnion pipe as the branch pipe of the teed elbow.
In each of the previous three cases, you can position the support in the PCF on the
trunnion pipe with an associated message instructing that the main pipe should not be holed.
If the pipe material is to appear in the MTO but is not required on the isometric drawing, then
you can add it to the PCF as a pipe additional item on the support. In this case, the support in
the PCF needs to be positioned directly onto the main pipe or fitting.
In all cases, the support can bear special trunnion welds. Trunnion welds are support welds with
an SKEY of ZTN1, 2, 3 or ZTR1, 2, 3, depending on how many welds are needed. To refer to
welding of any end plate at the other end of the trunnion pipe, use SKEY ZEP1, 2, again
depending on how many welds are needed.

Reinforcement pads are specified as a separate component entry positioned at the center point
coordinates of the tee, with either an SKEY set to RPAD or a redefined SKEY based on RPAD.
The recommended best practice is to use the MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER

Stub-In Tees
A stub-in tee configuration is very similar to that of a set-on tee, with the exception of the
BRANCH1-POINT coordinates. As with the set-on tee, you can specify the stub-in tee in the PCF
as TEE-SET-ON or TEE-STUB. The following SKEYs define the alternative stub-in tees:
TSSO - Stub-in tee
TSRF - Reinforced stub-in tee
Specify the BRANCH1-POINT coordinate for this type of tee, where the branch is inserted into a
hole in the main pipe, as a point on the centerline that is perpendicular to where the pipe inside
diameters intersect.
The difference in exact positioning of BRANCH1-POINT for a set-on tee (A) and a stub-in tee (B)
is shown in the following two diagrams:
Tangential and Offset Tees
You can specify tangential tees in the PCF as TEE-SET-ON or TEE-STUB. The following SKEYs
define the alternative tangential and offset tees:
TTSO - Tangential set-on tee
TTRF - Tangential reinforced set-on tee
TOSO - Offset set-on tee
TORF - Offset reinforced set-on tee
The connection points on a tangential tee (A) and on an offset tee (B) are depicted in the
following illustrations.
Y-Type Tees
A fabricated Y-type tee is constructed by welding together three pipes. You can specify a
fabricated Y-type tee in the PCF as Y-PIECE-FABRICATED with its SKEY set to TYSO.
The manufacture of this type of tee is complicated. Unless pipe profiling can be
accurately calculated, set the locations for the BRANCH1-POINT and BRANCH2-POINT
coordinates to the same location as the CENTRE-POINT.

Jacket and Core Pipelines
A jacketed pipeline consists of an internal pipe, referred to as the core, and external pipes,
known as the jackets. When processed through Isogen, the jacketed pipeline is extracted as
separate pipes (jacket and core) for which isometric drawings can be independently created.
In the PCF, corresponding core and jacket pipelines are made possible by bridging components,
whereby a component is simultaneously connected to the core and the jacket pipeline.
Currently, the only bridging component supported in the PCF is the 3-port jacket flange.
Core Pipelines
The PCF definition of a core pipeline contains only the core pipeline components, which
includes the bridging jacket flange components. An example of the required syntax for a simple
core section and the resulting isometric output is shown below.

Jacket Pipelines
In the PCF, the definition of a jacket pipeline contains the core pipeline components,
immediately followed by a JACKET-COMPONENTS section. For each component that is listed
in core pipeline example above, you must set the STATUS attribute to DOTTED-
UNDIMENSIONED and the MATERIAL-LIST attribute to EXCLUDE. Doing so keeps the focus of
the isometric output on the jacket pipe by ensuring that none of the core materials appear
annotated in the isometric drawing or in material list and that all dimensioning on the drawing
refers only to the jacket components.
All welds, both core and jacket welds in both core and jacket pipelines, can be dotted or
solid as needed.
An example of the recommended syntax for the JACKET-COMPONENTS section is shown
below, followed by the resulting isometric output.

Any jacketed section should be complete, that is, terminated with 3-port flanges or with
standard 2-port flanges or caps acceptable in fully jacketed pipelines.
More extensive sections can be built up using fitting components such as elbows, tees, and
crosses.
Jumpers
Multiple jacketed sections can be connected using jacket "jumpers", which are smaller bore
pipelines consisting only of jacketed components. To specify the start and finish of a jumper, the
JACKET-CONNECTION attribute is used on the component (typically, a pipe) to which the
connection is made. An example of the PCF syntax, which is similar to a TAP-CONNECTION in a
standard pipeline, is shown below.

Associated Welds
You can specify explicit welds in the PCF file as associated with fabricated tees/crosses, olets
and supports. This method is recommended as it ensures welds are correctly assigned at
ambiguous locations. For more information, see Associated Components--Welds in
Associated Components (on page 39).
Weld Properties
Weld SKEY
One of the most significant properties of the explicit weld is the SKEY. The SKEY controls the
graphic symbol used in the drawing and, in some cases, special behavior associated with the
weld type. Isogen supports many different types of weld SKEY. Most of these SKEYS are used
when describing welds for fabrication and/or construction of the pipeline.
The following table lists the main types of weld SKEYs that are likely to be used in the PCF to
cover virtually all requirements:
For a complete description of all available weld SKEYs, see the document Isogen
Symbol Key (SKEY) Definitions.
Weld CATEGORY
The CATEGORY attribute for a weld should normally be set. Ensure that its setting,
FABRICATION, ERECTION, OFFSHORE, matches the assigned SKEY, as outlined in the
previous table.
Weld Movement
A weld can have movement, or length. In these instances, a weld is treated like any other
component when Isogen calculates the connectivity of the system. That is, the END-POINT
attribute of the weld must match the END-POINT attribute of the connected component. A zero
length weld simply has two END-POINT attributes with the same values.
Mitre Welds
A mitre weld is used when there is a change in direction between adjoining components. When
you use a mitre weld, always set the ANGLE and CATEGORY attributes. In the example below, a
section of pipe is welded to an elbow with a mitred weld that introduces a change of direction

Non Cut Piece Breaking Welds
By default, Isogen creates an additional cut piece when it encounters a weld positioned along a
section of pipe. If it is required to place a weld in pipe without causing it to be broken into two cut
pieces, use weld SKEYs WWCP, WSCP, or WOCP (for FABRICATION, ERECTION, or
OFFSHORE categories, respectively).
SECTION 8
System Isometrics
Within the context of Isogen, a system isometric is defined as a drawing that contains a number
of individual pipelines that are physically connected so that they form a network. The network,
such as that for a steam distribution system, can consist of any number of pipelines with any
number of connections to equipment and possibly to other pipelines that are part of an adjacent
system.
The following illustration depicts a typical system isometric drawing.
The internal boundaries between the pipelines that make up the system are clearly indicated, as
are the connections at the external boundaries of the system.
The Piping Component File (PCF) layout and content for a system isometric varies only slightly
from that for a single pipeline. An additional block of information to allow the input of the system
identifier, together with basic system attributes, is included immediately following the Basic
Header Information block. This additional information is in the following format:
SYSTEM-ISOMETRIC-REFERENCE data
AREA data
DATE data
PROJECT-IDENTIFIER data
REVISION data
The data associated with the SYSTEM-ISOMETRIC-REFERENCE entry is the system isometric
identifier that is output on the plotted isometric. Additional optional attributes, which relate to the
system, can be entered as needed.
The available attributes and data requirements are the same as those listed for a
pipeline. For more information, see Pipeline Header Information (on page 20).
The example syntax below shows a PCF entry for a system isometric and the resulting output in
the system isometric drawing frame:
SYSTEM-ISOMETRIC-REFERENCE SYS-14A/ZA
AREA A10/23
DATE-DMY 03/02/99
PROJECT-IDENTIFIER P8604A
REVISION 1
the Basic Header Information and System Identifier blocks, data for each pipeline is included
using the same rules for the layout and content that are used for a pipeline PCF. Material
descriptions--item codes and descriptions for all components in each of the pipelines that make
up the system--are entered following the block that contains the last component of the last
pipeline:
You can include any number of pipelines in a system; however, only the pipeline reference
and specification type pipeline header attributes are output on the generated isometric. All
others are ignored.
All the rules for the input of pipeline references, pipeline header attributes, component
identifiers and related attributes that are used for the input of individual pipelines also apply
when creating a system PCF.
No components are allowed at the SYSTEM-ISOMETRIC level. All components must lay
within a parent PIPELINE section.
Connections between pipelines within the system must be omitted.
You can use a GAP component to connect two related, but unconnected, pipelines that
would not normally be allowed as part of the system isometric.
SECTION 9
The full list of the various end connection types is shown in the following table:
END-CONNECTION-PIPELINE
CO-ORDS 2968.2600 -1410.3200 0.0000
PIPELINE-REFERENCE P-2
The data relating to the CONNECTION-REFERENCE must be the complete reference that you
want to see output on the isometric. Additional text, controlled by the isometric style settings, is
added by Isogen. In the following example, CONN. TO is output by default, followed by the
CONNECTION-REFERENCE data, and then the coordinate data, if not suppressed in the
isometric style settings.
END-CONNECTION-EQUIPMENT
CO-ORDS 2968.2600 -1410.3200 0.0000

Connection to Plant Equipment Using a Nozzle
As an alternative to the END-CONNECTION-EQUIPMENT attribute, systems that use a NOZZLE
component for equipment connections can include the relevant information in the PCF in the
following way:
NOZZLE
CO-ORDS E/W N/S ELEV
CONNECTION-REFERENCE data
Equipment Isometrics
As with a basic pipeline system, Isogen is able to produce an isometric drawing that contains a
pictorial representation of equipment items together with all piping components. Materials are
grouped either on a drawing or pipeline basis. This is achieved by defining equipment items in
terms of their size, shape, location, and so forth, along with details of their nozzle connections in
the PCF.
Equipment/Nozzle Definition
In the PCF, equipment items can have a variable number of nozzle entries. The basic layout of
the PCF is as follows:
The following example depicts a section of PCF data with equipment/nozzles information:

Pipeline Connections
For each nozzle, there can be a single pipeline connection. The pipelines that connect to
nozzles can contain a group of components that are connected together. Each pipeline should
be self-contained, having only components that belong to that pipeline. Pipelines should contain
an end connection entry (END-CONNECTION-EQUIPMENT) with the appropriate reference that
matches that used in the equipment/nozzle definition.
The following example shows a PCF entry for a pipeline / nozzle connection:

If necessary, you can omit piping components, leaving only the pipeline reference and end
connection specification. Furthermore, you can also omit the pipeline reference and end
connection specification, leaving the nozzle completely bare. In this situation, however, it is not
possible to indicate the name of the connecting pipeline on the drawing.
Equipment Attributes
Each equipment definition in the PCF has a set of attributes and a variable number of nozzle
entries. Some of these attributes are significant to Isogen behavior.
All equipment attributes must start in column five (5), with the exception of the EQUIPMENT-
REFERENCE attribute, which must precede all other attributes.
Some equipment and nozzle connection attributes are mandatory while others are not.
LOCATION Number Specifies the plant location point (E/W, N/S, and
Elev) on equipment. This attribute is mandatory
when defining an equipment item.
CENTRE-POINT Number Specifies the center point (E/W, N/S, Elev) of the
nominal center-line of the equipment. This
attribute is mandatory when defining an
equipment item.
The following text should be used only to describe equipment and nozzle direction:
NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST, UP, and DOWN.
The following is an example of an equipment/nozzle connection moving in a single direction

SECTION 11
Victaulic Pipe/Fitting ends have special grooved preparation. Clamp and gasket
slot into the grooves and the clamp is bolted tight.
Grayloc Grayloc piping systems consist of fittings with pre-formed ends and
connectors that are attached to the pipe ends. The connectors are
attached to the pipe ends using butt weld, socket weld, or screwed
connections. The fittings and tube are connected together with a bolted
clamping device, and the fittings are always of the pre-formed type.
Victaulic Joints
When specifying this type of piping system in a PCF, model all the fittings with clamped ends
and set the 3rd and 4th of the SKEY to CL.
BECL – Clamped bend component.
TECL – Clamped tee component.
Between each fitting and pipe record, a CLAMP with the SKEY CLVT is placed.
If a detailed gasket / bolt listing is required in the BOM, the appropriate GASKET/BOLT
record must be placed with the CLAMP record.
For an ELBOW to PIPE connection, the PCF should include the following records:

Component Attributes and Data
Requirements
This section includes descriptions of component attributes and their associated input data
requirements.
Mandatory Attributes
The following table lists all the mandatory attributes and associated data requirements that are
used as the basic information that locates, sizes, and identifies the various piping components
that are included in a PCF for a particular pipeline.
Not all components carry all the listed attributes. The actual attributes used depend upon the
type of component being described.
Actual requirements for individual piping components are listed in the Component
Information Sheets. For more information, Component Information Sheets (on page Error!
Bookmark not defined.).
SKEY data Valid Isogen SKEY (Shape Key) for the component being
processed.
BOLT-ITEM-DESCRIPTION data Allows bolts having the same item code to have
different material descriptions
REPEAT-PART-NUMBER data Input data is the material list part number that was
initially allocated.
When using the Isogen Repeatability
function which makes use of the data that is input
using the REPEAT-PART-NUMBER attribute, the
HIGHEST-PART-NUMBER attribute must also be
included in the Pipeline Header Information block.
REPEAT-PART-NUMBER-BRANCH1 data Both attributes are only used on tees and crosses
that have the SKEY TESO and CRSO,
respectively.
When using the Isogen Repeatability
function which makes use of the data that is input
using the REPEAT-PART-NUMBER attribute, the
HIGHEST-PART-NUMBER attribute must also be
included in the Pipeline Header Information block.
REPEAT-PART-NUMBER-BRANCH2 data Input data is the material list part number that was
initially allocated.
When using the Isogen Repeatability
function which makes use of the data that is input
using the REPEAT-PART-NUMBER attribute, the
HIGHEST-PART-NUMBER attribute must also be
included in the Pipeline Header Information block.
END-POSITION-xxxx Where xxxx is set to one of the five data types that are used at
pipeline terminations.
JACKET-POINT data Identifies the point at which the jacket pipe connects to the
flange. Coordinates must be listed in the following order:
East/West, North/South, Elevation. West and South
coordinates and all Elevations below zero must be preceded by
a minus (-) sign.
INSULATION data Input data is ON or OFF. This INSULATION data attribute can
be used as an alternative to the INSULATION-ON attribute.
TRACING data Input data is ON or OFF. This TRACING attribute can be used
as an alternative to the TRACING-ON attribute.
CUT-PIECE-LENGTH data Required input data is a value for the required cut piece
length of the pipe or bend (in the same units as those
used to define the main pipelines coordinates). This
enables you to override Isogen’s normal cut piece
length calculation.
DETAIL-SKETCH-IDENTIFIER data Required input data is either the name of a cell, which
is the detail sketch, in a MicroStation cell library if using
DGN format, or the filename of a file containing the
sketch definition if using DXF. Nominated sketches are
automatically positioned on the plotted isometric.
GASKET-CLASS data Use either to give a valid gasket SKEY, which identifies
the class/rating of special transition gaskets used on
GASKET-RATING data fixed length type lined pipe.
WELDING-ALLOWANCE data Input data is EP1, EP2 or BOTH. This attribute is used
on a PIPE component record to denote which ends of
the pipe are to have any associated field fit weld (FFW)
allowances taken from.
Weight data (WEIGHT, WEIGHT1, and WEIGHT2 attributes) must conform to one of the
following three input formats:
Integer number (55 625 1350)
Real number (55.5 625.0 1350.0)
Tons/Tonnes (22T5 99T9 [Maximum] - values given to nearest 0.1)
When using the Isogen Repeatability function, which makes use of any data that is input
using the REPEAT-WELD-IDENTIFIER attributes, the HIGHEST-WELD-NUMBER attribute
must also be included in the Pipeline Header Information block.
Attributes can be included in any order following the component identifier.
All attributes are entered one per line and must start in column position five (5).
The input data must be separated from the attribute identifier by at least one blank
character.
Components that have been added in the latest revision of the pipeline should have the
same revision as that defined in the Pipeline Header, as shown in the following example:
PIPELINE-REFERENCE HC-83501
AREA PIP-835A
NOMINAL-CLASS 150

APPENDIX A
The requirement for most of the items listed Pipeline Header Information, Component
Information, and Material Information tables below is to ensure that any attribute value that
should be known by the modelling software is explicitly stated rather than allowing Isogen to
determine the value on its own. This reduces the potential for Isogen to choose a value that is
slightly different, particularly in the case of the START-CO-ORDS attribute and the Parent
component association, resulting in unexpected or unwanted behavior.

Associating Components
Although the recommended best practice for defining parent/child relationships within the PCF is
to use the COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER and MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attributes, some
users may be more accustomed to using the older, alternative method for associating items:
indenting the child item underneath the parent item. With this method, an item is said to be
associated with a component when its data appears in column five (5) of the PCF, within the
body of the component data, rather than in column one (1). In the following example, the syntax
defines a weld at the branch of the set-on tee:
TEE-SET-ON
CENTRE-POINT -10228.6000 1228.6000 830.1400

The following sections provide clear examples of using the indentation method to associate
items within the PCF.
The PCF may contain a mixture of the two styles (with/without the COMPONENT-
IDENTIFIER and MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attributes), such that the new
COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER and MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attributes are present
only on those items required to overcome the ambiguities using indention to define a parent-
child relationship. However, indentation is explicitly forbidden when using the COMPONENT-
IDENTIFIER and MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attributes, as shown in the following
example which the associated weld entry is positioned in column five (5) and is also
assigned a MASTER-COMPONENT-IDENTIFIER attribute: .

IDENTIFIER attributes, see Associated Components (on page 39).
Linking Components with Materials
Before the MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute was introduced, the link between the component
and its material was defined in the PCF by either a stand-alone ITEM-CODE attribute or the
combination of ITEM-CODE, ITEM DESCRIPTION and ITEM-ATTRIBUTE attributes. The
following sections discuss how these attributes can be used to define materials data, as well as
their inherent limitations.
The recommended best practice for linking components and materials data is to use the
MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute. For more information, see Material Attributes (on page
70).
You cannot use the MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute in combination with the ITEM-CODE /
ITEM-DESCRIPTION / ITEM-ATTRIBUTE attributes to specify materials. Any such
inconsistency in methods within the PCF will cause processing to immediately cease.
ITEM-CODE Attribute
This method presumes that every component with the same ITEM-CODE property has the same
material.
This method works satisfactorily as long as each component has a unique item code. Situations
do arise when this practice is not followed, such as when the same component is used both as
an olet (branch) and as a coupling. Whereas the item codes for each can be identical, the
descriptions, however, are different.
Isogen always uses the first match it finds in the MATERIALS section to link the
component and material.
ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION Attributes
This method presumes that every component with the same pair of ITEM-CODE and ITEM-
DESCRIPTION properties has the same material.
All components with the same ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION pair share the same
material attributes. This behavior is significant in Isogen, as components with the same material
and nominal size are accumulated in the Isogen generated MTO (Material Take Off).
The following is the MATERIALS section from the PCF that generated the previous MTO.
MATERIALS

ITEM-CODE FCD150-WNRSTD

DESCRIPTION VALVE, GLOBE, CS ASTM A234, 150#, FL, OS&Y
ITEM-CODE T1RCFSTD-BW
DESCRIPTION TEE, RED, FRG CS A234 WPB, STD WT, BW
There is one entry in the MATERIALS section for ITEM-CODE FCD150-WNRSTD (the second
item), but Isogen generates two entries in the MTO. This is because the 4" flanges and 6"
flanges are separately accumulated – a total of three 6" flanges and three 4" flanges.
The following is the PCF entry for a flange:
FLANGE
END-POINT 450198.4300 782000.0000 158000.0000 6.0000

As shown in the previous PCF entry, both ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION properties are
defined and match the ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION properties in the MATERIALS
section of the file:
ITEM-CODE FCD150-WNRSTD
DESCRIPTION FLANGE, CS ASTM A105, 150#, WN, RF, STD WT
In this case, because no additional material attributes are defined, the MATERIALS section is
unnecessary. This can be shown by modifying the ITEM-DESCRIPTION of the flange slightly to
include the characters XX (line 6 in the following PCF entry):
FLANGE
END-POINT 450198.4300 782000.0000 158000.0000 6.0000

UCI 50E0FD39-E259-11D5-BD05-0000397D3C39
The resulting MTO is shown in the following illustration. The total number of flanges remains the
same (6), but there is now one 6" flange with the modified description (XX) in addition to the
2x6" flanges with the original description.
For set-on, stub-in, tangential and offset tees, the ITEM-CODE attribute, as well as the
optional ITEM-DESCRIPTION attribute, should be those of the branch pipe.
For pulled tees, the ITEM-CODE attribute, as well as the optional ITEM-DESCRIPTION
attribute, should be those of the main pipe.
Limitations
Certain restrictions are inherent when relying on the ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION pair
to define the link between a component and its material. For example, any given combination of
ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION can only bear one combination of material attributes.
Too, all components that share the same combination of ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION
properties are accumulated by Isogen on the material list. As such, it is not possible to
separately accumulate two components that have the same ITEM-CODE and ITEM-
DESCRIPTION properties, even if they are from different piping specifications.
Conflicts can also arise if (against recommended best practices) differing combinations of
material attributes for a given combination of ITEM-CODE and ITEM-DESCRIPTION are
included at the component level. In these situations, it is impossible to be certain that the
intended behavior is being followed.
You cannot use the MATERIAL-IDENTIFIER attribute in combination with the
ITEM-CODE / ITEM-DESCRIPTION attributes to specify materials. Any such inconsistency in
methods within the PCF will cause processing to immediately cease.
