How to setup Unique Assembly/Part Number?

- If you want to have a unique assembly and part number of the identical elements, you need to change it in advance option. The video will show how to setup this options in Tekla Structures.
Ive just picked a job up which is to be modelled as Execution class 3 so for full traceability the client needs unique part marks and and assembly marks even though many parts and assemblies will be duplicated exactly many many times. Ive already worked out how to create the unique numbers by changing the XS files as you described. However how do i create part and assembly drawings without having literally dozens ( in some cases hundreds) of identical part and assembly drawings. The client showed me a sample of a single part Tekla drawing (done by another detailing company) with a detail for a plate that was required 65 times, so for instance the quantity said something like '1 no REQUIRED AS DRAWN MK'D P1-65. 1-65 was also the drawing number. How was that done, surely not manually given the stringent quality restrictions on a class 3 job.
Thanks for the video. Question: won't reunumbering like this to create unique assembly / part numbers completely stuff up all of your drawings?
That depends on you numbering setting.
The technique of unique numbering is clear but I can not comprehend in what kind of real situations it might be useful, I mean unique numbering of assemblies on a factory, workshop, on building site, etc.
Thanks for the comment, This is a case to case basis per fabricator. In steel fabrication is a rare case (it just happened that one of my client needed this) but in precast automated fabrication it is very common, specially if you are going to export to unitechnik. The system requires the unique number. Thanks
Hi, is there a way in tekla that I can number assemblies one by one manually myself (since I have to adopt manufacturing numbering to frame design numbering which is wanted by the cuatomer). My assembly numbers should be same as design numbering. I dont want to do this in Autocad because I want to keep my tekla design as the frame design documentation.
A quick answer is you can use the prefix for your manual numbering. Then hide the counter to your reports and drawing.
In addition, there are some ways to do it, like using UDA, Assign number etc.
@@thehowsofteklastructures565 thank you very much for the answer. Hiding the counter and using prefix only seems fine but how to hide the counter in reports or drawings?
@@thehowsofteklastructures565 also is there a method for numbering joints except custom components? In explanation I need to assign a unique name to a standard connection in Tekla.
Can you explain how did you configure the numbering of the multiple stiffners to be different of the beam ?
By changing the advance option Ctrl+E , change the UNIQUE number to TRUE
I also think this is very rare to use this option and make all assemblies unique. In my practice I usually have to manipulate few members to have different numbers, but with same geometry. You could try to write "-" as a prefix for the start number. For example Assembly prefix "B" + Start number "-365" will give you, after numbering, positioning number "B365". With this tactic you could also combine different geometries in 1 assembly mark. This is both beneficial and dangerous if not controlled well. Good luck to everyone!
Thanks for your insight. Yeah user needs to fully understand the numbering system. Yes, it could be beneficial and dangerous if not handled well. And as you know Tekla always have an options to handle things with the same output. User always has the choice. Thanks again!
You too for the work and the content! Here to help if any :)
Is there a way to group same parts but allow them to have unique numbers?
In TS each element has its own unique number.
@@thehowsofteklastructures565 yes, but is there way I could compare parts and see if they are same?
