Historically, connection design has been a semi-manual process using a combination of spreadsheets, hand calculations and commercial design software. Integrating these processes into a single workflow can be challenging, time consuming, and prone to errors. Burns & McDonnell has been searching for a seamless way to execute structural connection design in Intergraph Smart 3D that will also eliminate interference of piping with gusset plates in steel connections, all while reducing construction schedules. In this session, we will introduce Hexagon's new connection design capabilities in S3D - SDS/2 Connect. This groundbreaking functionality has been developed in partnership with SDS/2, a global market leader in connection design and steel detailing software. Because this technology has been built into S3D, there is no need to move information between solutions, and updates are instantaneous. In addition to automatically designing connections and gusset plates, SDS/2 Connect can optimize connections to reduce bolt numbers and plate welding as well as check for constructability and erectability. This capability results in reduced material and installation costs, shop work, and field corrections, leading to improved quality and efficiency on projects. The session will also highlight how this constructible information can be used downstream for fabrication.

The power of visualizing progress, outstanding scope and energized equipment/areas is critical as the projects industry enhances focus on modularized fabrication in low-cost region fabrication yards.

Business problem: Engineering companies work with instrument vendors to build and furnish processing plants. There are countless hours wasted on every project due to the lack of historical data use and system integration between engineering companies and the familiar vendors that they work with on countless projects. We continue to re-invent the wheel on most new projects, even when we have worked with the same client and vendors on similar processing plants in the past. Value proposition: Streamline the flow of engineering data across vendor and engineering contractors systems and tools. Collect historical data and use for informed sizing and selection and even estimating purposes. Mapping interfaces between different systems to reduce/eliminate human error factor.

Next Steps:

• Working towards global industry standardizations which should lead to safer plants and more adherence to industry safety standards
• Looking toward API interfaces for mobility solutions

Digital awareness is the ability to identify, process and comprehend information gathered with technologies such as BLE and UWB in the workplace. Simply put, it's knowing what is going on in the dynamic work place or environment around you. The most effective aspect of digital awareness involves gathering key information which increases the ability to actively anticipate events and actions around you. Once you have been able to gather, identify and comprehend the elements, digital awareness allows you to think ahead and determine how it will affect future actions and events in the environment.

Designing a plant is one thing; designing it efficiently from both an engineering perspective AND a capital investment perspective is something else. In this session, you will learn how the joint AspenTech-Hexagon solution can achieve these objectives by optimizing the work process between the basic engineering, cost estimating, intelligent P&IDs and project performance solutions. This data-centric and rules-driven design process will help execute the front-end design efficiently and with high quality, providing clear cost and resource views for the project. When it is time to execute the detailed design phase, the data can be seamlessly moved to that phase of the project, reducing risk on both engineering and budget.

Tripatra Engineers and Constructors (Tripatra) had been using PDMS as the main 3D system for years. However, projects were becoming more complex and schedules were getting tighter, which required the organization to have data-centric technology and an integrated reuse approach to execute even the largest and most complex projects with centralized visibility and control. Tripatra is now using Smart 3D, whose strong rules- and relationship-based architecture and customized automation capabilities can cater those requirements for large and complex projects. By integrating Smart Materials, the code standardization helps organization maintain data consistency from materials specifications, MTO, engineering requisitions and procurement, up to construction stage for both small and large scale project.In this session, Tripatra will share its current status, future plans and how it sees Smart 3D and Smart Materials integration for current and future projects.

Modular construction techniques have been used in the construction industry for many years. With increased pressure on EPCs and owner operators to reduce project schedules, cut costs, and maintain a safer jobsite, their use in both the onshore and offshore oil and gas arenas is becoming more common. While most people involved in the oil and gas trades are well-versed in traditional design and construction practices, modular construction requires learning new processes and new ways of thinking about how projects are executed.

In this session, we will discuss Hilti’s modular solution to address multiple disciplinary (piping, I&E and HVAC) support needs early in digital design phase. We will demonstrate how Hilti’s Smart3D plug-in, available now as Hexagon PPM-maintained content, can simplify the design, specification and modeling of modular systems in Smart 3D.

"Most petroleum industry processes are still based on documents. Embracing the digital twin concept, Eni decided to create an integrated data management platform called the Eni Integrated Platform (EIP). Now the company can capitalize on the digital data during the entire lifecycle of each facility, which is the real value for operators. The Eni Life Cycle Information (LCI) management program ensures the availability of all the engineering data during development and construction project phases and subsequent operation and maintenance processes, with the aim of conducting future projects for production optimization, asset integrity and further development. In EniProgetti, Eni's engineering arm, several projects were started in 2018 to enhance the data-centric approach and create the unique EIP to implement "single source of truth" concept. The data-centric approach in every stage of projects is already compulsory for Eni. Every stakeholder (partners, contractors, engineering services suppliers) must be ready to comply. In this session, Eni will share how full integration between engineering, planning, procurement, construction, commissioning and operations provides benefits that are providing highly increased data consistency and significant reduction of time to market "

Hexagon PPM's Connected Worker strategy focuses on empowering technicians and operators in the field by providing them with real-time access to the right information, at the right time, driving productivity and safety. Field technicians are often stranded on a deserted island with little to no access to the data they need or the ability to collaborate with the systems or colleagues. Hear from our customers how the Xalt mobile framework has enabled their organizations to reimagine their field operations by adopting a connected worker mobility strategy.

Digital twins are the cornerstone of current digital transformation. They are plant digital replicas that integrate design and measurement data for engineering and operation support. Integrating plant simulated data from process simulation models further increases the Digital Twin capabilities, as they can be used also for production forecasting, system-wide optimization or for obtaining non-measured plant information. Simulation brings life into digital twins, enabling a holistic and powerful industrial application. However, since model development is traditionally carried out manually, implementation of simulation-based digital twins remains laborious. In this session, Model Broker, an innovative solution for automatic simulation model generation will be presented. Model Broker utilizes information from Smart P&ID/3D to automatically generate dynamic simulation models. Model Broker can be used together with Yokogawa Mirror Plant or Semantum Live Virtual Twin for rapidly and efficiently developing the plant simulation-based digital twin, dramatically reducing its implementation effort. Example cases presented in this session will be focused on the oil and gas, chemical and power generation sectors.

Plant and structure designers constantly face new problems in their daily workflows. Q: How do I provide consistent formatted bill of materials as a project deliverable when there are 20 different designers working on the same project? A: Create a Bill of Material Template. Q: I have designed space around a pump to account for the maintenance I know it will require but how do I communicate to other disciplines to stay out of this space? A: Soft Clash Volume reservation. Q: What about a project-wide material or cross section change? This would take hours to go through a large model and manually make changes to each and every affected object. A: With CADWorx Structure 2019, this change can be done in seconds using databases. Each of these problems (and many more) were considered when developing the latest version of CADWorx. During this presentation, we’ll walk through some of the more common problems and demonstrate the solutions that have been developed to help designers be more consistent and accurate.

Vertically integrated analysis solutions in the design environment are powerful and effective when the actual materials, loads, and geometry are within the scope of design standards and analysis assumptions. In some cases, a more detailed analysis is required to account for nonlinear behaviors, advanced material systems, manufacturing process effects, environmental variability, extreme operating conditions and unique geometries. MSC Software, a part of Hexagon, provides advanced simulation solutions and streamlines the workflows from design environments like Intergraph Smart 3D, CAESAR II, and Bricsys for advanced simulation requirements.

For generations, we have been trained to put data into systems to feed rearward-looking reports that show what happened. By adding EcoSys into the mix, we have added standardized processes and a centralized platform that automates the production of reports, dashboards and many types of workflows, allowing us to produce actionable data. We literally have a database of historical and current project, portfolio and contract data that has so much more to tell us! This session will dive into how FTI's Data Intelligence Group is organizing data by integrating EcoSys and other structured and unstructured data while applying statistical models to develop new insights into the existing data. This arms decision makers with quantitative data, predictive models and easy visualizations and reports to focus on key issues that truly impact outcomes. Come see how EcoSys and Data Intelligence provides new ways to drive project performance if you have ever asked questions like: - Does the duration of a project affect the likelihood of cost overrun? - How likely is a project to hit its Class III Estimate target? - How do RFIs impact productivity? - How likely is each project in a portfolio to hit its forecasted spend (or revenue) for next month? - What is the likely impact to margin for a given Change Order? - What PM / CM combination produces the best project outcomes? Come see how EcoSys and Data Intelligence can provide new ways to drive project performance!
