Standards Enhancements

Learn about updates and enhancements to the drawing standards.

Many 2D weld symbols in drawings were updated as per ISO/BSI/DIN/GB standards. The newly introduced 3D weld symbols use ISO, DIN and ANSI standards. The changes include updating the names of fields and adding new fields depending on the selected weld type. The changes were made to Square Butt Welds, Fillet Welds, or Plug Welds for example.

Also, a change was made to the "Break Out Line" object type for ISO standards. Until now, the "Visible" layer on "Thickness" was set to 0.5 mm. Now, as per the updated standard, the "Break Out Line" object type uses the "Break Line" layer by default with a thickness of 0.25 mm. This also applies to DIN/GB/JIS standards.
