Center of gravity

 Hi,



Center of equipment and Cable trays are mentioned as the above image.

Hi Avanti,

Thanks for your help.

But I want the COG of the whole model(only raceway in the model) .

I don't think I have ever heard of anyone asking for the Center of Gravity before.  Can I ask what purpose this information would serve for you?  And am I correct in saying you have several raceways around the drawing and what you want is a center point for all of them together?  As if you were trying to balance them out by one single point?

Hi Tani,

Yes, you're right.

I need the whole model of cableways' COG, this is used for lifting. Our module is not fix on ground.

Below is the function in Bentley Prosteel. It can report the structure's COG directly (This also needed in our work).

Open plant also can report the Piping COG.

Thanks for your reply.

I just get information from my colleague, the open plant can not give the COG neither, but BENTLEY Develop a small tool to report the Piping COG.

Now I understand, thank you.  BRCM does not have a function for that sort of calculation at this time.  To the best of my knowledge, no one has ever asked for a feature like that before, so you would be the first.  I would suggest that you use the Service Request Manager to create a Service Request to add a new feature for this in a future version of the software.  That way the request will go under your company name and be submitted into the system.  

1. Login to https://connect.bentley.com/ using personal SELECT Services login.
2. From My Support area go to New Service Request.

Then explain in the body of the request that you would like this feature added, and what benefit it has for you so that the future Enhancement Request can be filed by the support group.
