Overview
1. THE GRID TASK
Select
Grid Wizard
Place Coordinate System
Place Elevation Plane
Place Grid Plane
Place Radial Grid
The Grid task allows us to create logical reference points in space to anchor our structural steel,
equipment and various other entities within Smart Plant 3D. To access the Grid Task from within
Smart Plant 3D, open the respective Project, and from the Tasks menu, select the Grids Task.
The action bar will be updated with the above icons. They are:
Select
o If you have any objects selected within the model, or wish to deselect any objects
simply click on this icon and your selection will be reset.
Grid Wizard
o The Grid Wizard guides you through the Coordinate or Grid System creation
process, prompting us for various pieces of information in order to accurately
reflect our design.
Place Coordinate System
o To simply place a Coordinate System Point.
Place Elevation Plane
o This allows the user to add additional elevation planes to an existing Coordinate or
Grid System.
Place Grid Plane
o As before, it allows users to add additional Grid Planes to an existing Coordinate or
Grid System.
Place Radial Grid
o Allows users to add additional Radial Grids to an existing Coordinate or Grid
System.

Based on this structure, we understand that to create a Building grid System, we need to place a
Coordinate System first and then add the various Grid Planes and Elevation Planes to flesh out
our structure.
We also need to understand how our building relates back to our Plant Beacon (Coordinate
System) and our Global Coordinate System.
Generally we will find that a large
majority of Projects will have a
Plant at a slope.
Before
After
To simplify the modelling process,

we will be creating an additional
coordinate system that will rotate
our plant so that users can model
directly without the need to modify
coordinate systems constantly.
