CM_GM = Base Material Generic Material Classification Component_Comments = Analyst Comments (Optional Input)

Available_Inventory_Group = List of available Inventory_Group names for selection in the Component Form

Area = Grouping field 7.20.1.2 Inventory Groups

• Component must be assigned to an Inventory Group.

• Available Inventory Groups are displayed in the select list of already created Inventory Groups.

• When the Create Inventory Group hyperlink all of the inventory groups are shown in a table format.

• A new group can be created by using the Add Row button and adding the required data.

• Data can be modified for an existing inventory group by selecting the row and changing the data.

Caution if the data on the form is changed, but the name of the inventory group is not changed then, all components assigned to this inventory group have had data changed also.

7.20.1.3 CHOICE LIST DEPENDENCIES

• The permissible Component Types are a function of the Equipment Type Table 1.

• The permissible Geometry Types are a function of the Equipment Type Table 2.

• The geometry parameters that are listed on the component form are a function of Equipment Type and the Geometry Type are a function of the Equipment Type Table 3.

Table 1 Permissible Component Types for Each Equipment Type PIPE TUBE/NS

The Component Type is used to determine parameters stored in the Component Form, these parameters are sent to the FORTRAN calculation routine

Note that Equipment Type=PIPE BEND has been deleted, a pipe bend or elbow is now address by using Equipment Type=PIPE with Geometry Type=ELB

Table 2 Permissible Geometry Types for Each Equipment Type PIPE TUBE/NS

The Component Type is used to determine parameters stored in the Component Form, these parameters are sent to the FORTRAN calculation routine

7.20.1.4 SELECTING BASE AND/OR CLADDING MATERIALS 1. If Thickness is Input a Base Material Must Be Selected

2. Select the Get BM Matl. Button to Access the Materials DataBase 3. Design Code MUST Match Equipment Design Code

4. Select Specific Material From the BM Design Code List Click OK

5. Base Material Has to be Saved and Refreshed before the Material:Base Field Elements will be Updated

6. Base Material must be added before a cladding material is added.

7. Selecting a Cladding Material uses the Same Procedure as Selecting a Base Material
