Details about the
Metric DemoBuild Description
The Metric DemoBuild that you have received has a few
differences from the customized version of MH Pro! that FBE
provides for Trial Projects. Each of the following may or may
not be true for your company.
- Precast pieces have the height measured from the outside
bottom.
- The pieces are designed to meet the Ontario Provincial
Standards.
- Selected frames and grates may not be the same as the ones
that you use.
- The pipes in the example structures may not be those that
are used in your area.
- Angles are measured Clockwise (CW).
The example structures in the DemoBuild have specific ways
that the following are presented (these presentations can be
modified for your company).
- Adjustment (rings or leave short)
- Joint Seals
- Opening/connector Descriptions
If you chose to do a Trial Project, then FBE customer
engineers will request data about your precast pieces to put
into MH Pro! so that the Shop and Submittal Drawings have the
content and format your company requires. There are five
different versions of the Shop Drawing available in the Metric
DemoBuild for any structure in the sample jobs. You may chose
elements from these Shops Drawings to define what your Shop
Drawing will look like.
