Notes:
A Component is defined by a MESC code. The MESC code can be described with a Short Name (using an Application Code and a Material code). In addition to the Short Name two other properties are required to compose Piping classes. These properties are:
Type: Data field to define the rating and/or the wall thickness(es) of a Component
Show type: Data field to define the size(s) and/or the length of a Component
The property Group has been added to be used as a filter to select a group of Components. The table below shows the relation between the properties:
