In daily use, SuCri helps you complete recurring tasks quickly, consistently and without errors. This chapter describes typical work steps that you will perform regularly.

Open project and check license

  • Start Plant 3D or Advance Steel.
  • In the SuCri license manager, check whether your license is displayed as active (green).
  • If necessary, pull your license with Pull or release it with Push for colleagues.

Load pipe classes and content

  • Open the project manager and load the supplied SuCri pipe classes into your current project.
  • Make sure that the SuCri pipe class is active before you start with placement.

Place components

  • In the SuCri ribbon, select the desired function for the automated placement of supports or secondary steelwork components.
  • Benefit from intelligent selection: SuCri automatically suggests suitable combinations and connections.

Perform validation

  • Use the integrated validation functions to ensure that the selected connection components are suitable.
  • If necessary, correct components directly in the model – this way errors are avoided already in the planning phase.

Create documents

  • Generate bills of materials (BOMs) with one click – either for the current drawing or for the entire project.
  • Derive ortho templates and fabrication drawings to document assemblies or supports.
  • Use the predefined drawing styles for this and adapt them to your company standards.

Collaboration in the team

  • Use the license push/pull function to flexibly share licenses within the team.
  • Access shared user profiles to work consistently with the same standards.
  • Save and version your projects regularly to ensure data integrity.
