Introduction

Introduction to the program

IntegraCAD 2011 is a software program intenden for solving all design problems with potable and drainage water pipeline calculation, heating pipelines, radiator selection (for two pipe system and one pipe system), fan coil selection and fan coil pipeline, floor and wall heating and cooling. You can print the calculation results and material lists directly or export them in several xls file format.

Program packages

You can purchase IntegraCAD 2011 in four different packages. Sani, Duct, Termo, Professional, Suite, Premium, Enterprise. The program packages include the same program framework (program interface, CAD, print, database) but a different amount of calculation modules. You can compare the different packages in the table below:

CAD

The CAD moduel can be used to work with technical drawings. You can use drawings in dwg (up to version 2010) and dxf file formats. The program CAD module is completely autonomous and you do not need for any other CAD software to be installed on the computer to work with the drawings. You can create new or edit existing drawings. To find out more follow these links: CAD basics and CAD functions overview

Print

The print module of the program has the following features:

- Standard text editing tools - Edit material lists with capability to add products directly from the program database - Translate the printouts to seeral languages (Albanian, Bulgarian, Bosnian, Chinese (simplified), English, Croatian, Hungarian, Macedonian, Romanian, Russian, Slovenian, Serbian, Turkish.) - Export printouts to xls format - Print with print preview function

Product catalogue

The program has an included products catalogue with technical data, descriptions pictures and article numbers. All products are sorted into groups to allow easyer browsing. The calculation modules use the same technical data as displayed in the catalogue module of the program. You can also use these data to edit material lists in the print module.

New ! - Internet presentation and training

We offer Internet support through a specialised web conferencing system. During the conference the participants can see the presenters screen and follow the session in real time. All users see the same video output (the presenters screen) and can communicate with each other through a live audio connection.

An Internet presentation is the simplest and fastest way to experience the capabilities of the program. Without generating costs and with a minimum time investment, everybody with an interest in the program can get the answers to his/her questions. The presentation will give you a general overview of the software without discussing the fine points. After the presentation phase there will be time for Q&A

and a possibility to explore some questions deeper. Program presentations can be individual or public.

Getting help for a current issue has never been easier. Program users can contact us by phone, e-mail or Skype and we will organize a support session as soon as possible. You can ask general questions (how to start a program function, avoid problems, etc.) or questions related to a current project. In general, the explanations will be made with standard support projects. For bigger issues, you can send us your project and drawing files and we will do our best to help. If the problems cannot be resolved during the support session, we will transfer them to our standard technical support procedure.

Internet training allows for a thorough insight into a part of the program. As a program user you have two options: you can request an individual training or you can join one of the regular public trainings. In the first case you can select the training topic freely but you need to make your training request at least 7 days in advance. In the case of public trainings the topic and date are already set and you need to apply at least 24 hours in advance. Public training dates will be announced on our website www.integracad.com at least two weeks in advance.

Program registration

This serial number is your private number and it allows you to use the program. Before you start working with IntegraCAD you should contact the program distributor or Impuls ing d.o.o and supply them with exact information on the name of your program, its Version label and the Serial Number (i.e. IntegraCAD 2011 Enterprise, INT50, 4111588392). You'll get an Activation key for starting the program. Run the program and type the activation key in the required spot (delete the zero). If everything was fine you'll se the button OK activated and be able to start working. You need to type the activation key only once; at all other times the program will run without asking this information (in licence time period that you buy 30, 90 or 365 days). After that time period IntegraCAD 2011 version of the program will stop working

Program fundamentals

Starting the program and basic program settings

Note! All pictures in this help are from english program version and can be different than your program language version or your IntegraCAD program package (Enterprise, Premium, Suite, Professional, Termo, Duct or Sani)!

Load the program by pressing Start in the lower left corner of the screen and select Programs -> IntegraCAD 2011 (Language). You can start the program also by double

clicking the program shortcut icon on your desktop .

After the program loads you first need to crate a new project. While you are doing this you will also select the calculations that you need for this project. This is just an initial calculation selection and you can change this afterwards by loading/unloading all calculation modules available in the program. By creating and saving a project the program will make a file with a .int ending. This is your project file and it holds all necessary calculation data like the layout of the building, calculation settigngs, finished calculations etc. To save this data permanently you need to save on a hard disk. If you have installed the program on severral computers you can copy this file and use it to work on other computers with the installed software.

To crate a new project select "New" from the File menu or click the icon in the toolbar. The new project wizard will open in a new window. You can now select the calculations you want to do and proceed or crate a new project template with the calculations you most commonly use. You can crate several project templates for this program.

From the project wizard select "Custom project" and press the "Forward" button. Check the calculations you want to work on this project and click "OK".

Crating a project template:

* Select the custom template and check the calculations you want to be part of the new template. * Click "Save template". * Enter the template name and description and click "Save".

In future projects you can select this new project template form the initial project wizard screen and speed up your calculation selection. You can make several project templates if you like.

Open existing projects

Existing projects can be opened by using the "Open" function from the toolbar or by selecting the same function from the File menu. A new window will open and you need to locate the file on your computer or network (you are looking for a file with the .int extension).

Saving the active project

During work it is possible to save the project to file by using the "Save" function in the

toolbar or the same function from the File menu. A new window will open and you need to give a new file name (or edit the existing file name) and save the file to a disk. If you want to make a copy of the project you can use the "Save as..." function in the File menu. You can always save the project to file from anywhere in the program. We recommend saving the project on a regular basis and also keeping backup files of important projects on other media (network disk, USB disk, CD/DVD ...). This is the best way to insure data integrity and accuracy. To help you with this you can use the integrate Autosave function.

Project settings

After creating the project the program will load the selected calculations and setup some basic program settings. After these preparations the first thing you have to do is to create a new building structure. An empty project as initially created by the program is displyed below:

In the upper part of the screen you can see the main menu and toolbar. They include the most common program functions like loading and saving projects, selecting settings, loading/unloading calculation modules etc. On the left side of the screen you can see the tree controls (Project, CAD, Installations, Catalogue) and everything on the right is the main Workspace. The program has four tree controls, each with a distinctive purpose: The project tree - its purpose is to create, edit and view the building and its parts (floors, flats, rooms). The position on this tree often determines to what part of the building some calculation is reffering (e.g if you are positioned on the first floor in the project tree and want to do a radiator selection, the program will do the selection for all rooms on the first floor.)

The CAD tree - its purpose is to view and change different settings related to the CAD module. This tree is generally active only when you disply the CAD module on your workspace. You can look at object settings selected inside the CAD drawing surface or look at a list of pipeline drawing connection errors and warnings. You can use this list to quickly jump from one problem to another which is very usefull in a large project drawing. The installation tree - its purpose is to create, edit and view the building pipeline installations (pipelines). This is the place to add new instalations, floor entry points and manifolds. The installation tree is connected to the project tree (e.g. the program will know on which floor a floor entry point is set) but it is not a copy of its structure. You have to define the structure separately from the building structure. You can for example have risers going through each floor but having only floor entry points at every second floor. In this event the number of floor entry points on one riser does not correspond to the number of floors it passes through. The catalogue tree - its purpose is to enable you a look on the products included in the program database in a hierarchical way for easyer product browsing. You can search the products while in the Catalogue module or use it to create CAD drawings in the CAD module or insert products in lists of material in the print module.

The workspace is right of the tree controls and covers the majority of the screen. Most actions happen in it like calculations, print preparation etc. The workspace consists from five interconecting parts: Info, Calculation, CAD, Print and Catalogue. You can switch between these modules simply by clicking on the tab names. Info is the part that is active when you start a new project and its main purpose is to display information about parts of the project. Calculation is the part that includes all calculation modules that can be activated in the program. To move between the different calculations you have to click on the tabs with the calculation names (top of the workspace). To move inside a particular calculation you have to click on the vertical tabs with the calculation part names located in between the tree controls and the workspace. CAD is the part where you can create and edit drawings. This module is compatible with the drawing formats dwg and dxf and includes most common drawing functions found in specialized CAD drawing software programs. To bind drawings to a project you have to make a connection between the drawing file and the floor it represents. Print is the part where you can create and edit different representations of the calculated data. The print module consists of calculation results and lists of material (Bills of Material). Catalogue is the part where you can view and browse products from the program database. You select different products using the Catalogue tree control and the product data is displayed in the Catalogue module on the workspace.

Below the workspace is an information bar where the program displays messages to the user, mostly about the progress of started functions like "Calculation finished" or "Project loaded". Most actions that take a longer time to execute will display progress information in the information bar.

Creating a building with the project tree

* Click on New project in the project tree on the left. * Right click on it -> a drop down list with several options will appear -> select Floor. * Now that you have created a new floor, by rightclicking on it you can create appartments and rooms. You can also create rooms inside of appartments. Once you are done creating floors and appartments you can rightclick on one and select a new room from the preloaded list of common rooms. Grouping rooms inside appartments is only made for the purpose of creating a more accurate representation of the building. Other than that there are no restrictions or benefits connected to it. Copying floors, appartments and rooms: Select the entity you whish to copy in the project tree -> rightclick on it and select "Copy" from the drop down list -> select the postition where you want to copy the entity, right click and choose "Paste". To be able to use this function correctly you usually need to go one level up e.g. to paste a room you need to select an appartment or floor, to paste an appartment you need to select a floor, to paste a floor you need to select the project . When you copy an appartment you automatically also copy all the rooms in it. When you copy a room, you also copy all the calculation data connected to it like radiator selection, underfloor heating calculations etc. Deleteing floors, appartments and rooms: Set the pointer on the entity you want to erase from the project tree, right click on it and choose "Delete" from the drop down menu. Changing names of floors, appartments and rooms: Select the entity for the name change in the project tree and press F2 on the keyboard or click one more time on it -> the name will turn blue and you can change it .

Use the described functions to construct you building. You can change all parts of the building (floors, appartments, rooms) anytime you want. WARNING: If you delete a part of the building by accident there is no undo function to bring it back. Save your project often to avoid loosing you work in this way.

Changing the tree position of floors, appartments and rooms

* Select an entity in the tree control.

* Using the arrow buttons up and down change the current entity position until it reaches the desired position.

Main menu

The Main menu is used to manage a project; the appearance and position of windows, main files and the help system. It is divided into the following sub menus: File, Edit, View, Print, Help.

File - used to manage basic project functions. New - creates a new project, Open - opens an existing project, Close - closes the active project, Save - saves the active project, Save as ... - saves the project named as, Print - prints project, Print preview, Printer settings - sets parameters of the printer; these options are followed by path and names of the last four projects used. The option Exit is used to exit the IntegraCAD program.

Edit - this menu contains standard data editing tools - Undo - move previous command, Redo - returns to previous command, Cut - cuts data (makes a copy but doesn't keep the original); Copy - for copying data (makes a copy and keeps the original; Paste - pastes cut or copied data on a chosen place, Settings - adjust program settings and CAD module in IntegraCAD program, Admin - tool for radiator or room importing, if the same does not exist in the IntegraCAD program.

View - contains settings which apply to the whole program and all the projects. Tool bar - used to turn on/off all tool bars in the program (main, for print...) or some for program tree (project, installation, catalogue). Function "Reset toolbal position" - will cancel all current settings, and return it to the standard form in which the program is delivered. Option - "Status bar" - can turn on or turn off status bar window (at the bottom of the IntegraCAD program window) - that displays information about last program activities.

Print - Menu where you can turn on / off some prints. There are two possible ways: 1.) direct from the menu (shorter display)

2.) or by "Print settings" button (in that menu) - graphically displays individual prints

Help - used to obtain basic information on IntegraCAD program and advice on using it. Help content - opens a new window with the program's help file displayed. About - build number (RC number) - e.g. on picture RC34, and some basic informations about authors.

Calculation and material list

After you complete your calculations, you can all datas and lists of materials arrange for printing in print module or, you can export and save them as a Microsoft Excel file. When you start the print module, program will automatically load his toolbars for editing data for printing. Switching from calculation print data to the other part, lists of materials, is enabled by using the vertical tab on the left edge of the print module (the same way as you switch between some parts of one calculation).

Calculation print:

Select "Print" module on the main IntegraCAD window and then click the vertical tab "Calculation".

When you click on that print module, program will automatically create those print calculations which you use in program (e.g. you used two pipe calaculaton (radiators) and heating pipeline calculation in that case program will automatically set these two calculations in his print module). If you selected all calculation in program, you will must use "Move" toolbar with four buttons to see them all, because all will not fit in print window. If you already at the beginning know what prints you will need, you can set them in the main Print menu of program. There are two possible ways: 1.) direct from the menu (shorter display)

2.) or by "Print options" button (in that menu) - graphically displays individual prints

Print editing is possible by program print toolbars or directly by typing and modifying data If later come to some changes in calculations, calculations data must be refreshed by

function Refresh print data located in the toolbar. Warning ! All manually entered datas and changes in the print list will be deleted by using that update function. That is why we recommend that first fully complete calculation part and than continue with editing. All prints created by the program are listed by lower left edge of the print window. You also can change currently displayed print list name by clicking on his name.

Lists of material:

Select "Print" module on the print window (if it is not already active), and then click the vertical tab "Material list". At the top of the window there are buttons for createing and some functions to work with a lists of materials like:

Insert list - create a new list of materials Delete list - delete the currently active list of materials Open - loading already creted material list (document with .ISD extension) Save - saveing active material list (document with have .ISD extension) Save as - saveing the material list under a different name Once you save material list as .ISD file you will can open it in any IntegraCAD program version, change it and save agein The difference between .INT file (project files) and .ISD file (list materials file) is that .INT file contains all information about a project, .ISD file only contains a list of materials, without calculations data, structure object data etc... Once created a material list can be changed at any time, but there is no automatic connection with calculation in which was created. If there is a change of some calculation, the list of material information can be refreshed using the function "Refresh data", or you can create a new print materials list that shows the current situation.

If you need you can have more different lists - made from the same project. To create a new list of materials, click on the button "Insert List" - new window will appear with all parameters for adjustment the new look for material list (insert on one list, on more lists, description types (long, short, without descriptions)

CAD

CAD drawing basics

Drawing in IntegraCAD is alike any CAD drawing. At the beginning you can connect the drawing with flat or you can make a new drawing.

Standard toolbars for drawing are at the right side of CAD window. Also there are toolbars with special tools. That tools are tended for drawing of heating elements, drop the radiators and manifolds, draw floor heating pipelines, heating pipelines and water system pipelines.

For the CAD drawings it is recommended to use SNAP function for connecting pipes and heating or cooling elements.

- LAYER -

Layers are primary organizational tool in INTEGRACAD. Similar objects we can associate similar objects in same layer. For example you can separate construction lines, text, dimension lines in separate layers. For every layer we can control name, colour, linetype and lineweight. Layers can be frozen (forzen layer is invisible and excluded from regeneration and plotting) and locked (objects are visible but can't be edited or selected). INTEGRACAD uses specific layers for drawing hot and cold water pipes. If you draw lines in other CAD program, layer has to be exactly the same as INTEGRACAD layer, otherwise collectiong pipeline won't work. Turning freeze on and of on some layers, drawing becomes more clear and it is easier to manage inside of it. Creating layers: 1. Open dialog box manage layers 2. Write the name of the layer 3. Click on button New layer 4. Find it in table below, click on the row and modify if needed. Click on the button „Set current“ to make layer active.

Internet training

We offer Internet support through a specialised web conferencing system. During the conference the participants can see the presenters screen and follow the session in real time. All users see the same video output (the presenters screen) and can communicate with each other through a live audio connection.

An Internet presentation is the simplest and fastest way to experience the capabilities of the program. Without generating costs and with a minimum time investment, everybody with an interest in the program can get the answers to his/her questions. The presentation will give you a general overview of the software without discussing the fine points. After the presentation phase there will be time for Q&A and a possibility to explore some questions deeper. Program presentations can be individual or public.

Getting help for a current issue has never been easier. Program users can contact us by phone, e-mail or Skype and we will organize a support session as soon as possible. You can ask general questions (how to start a program function, avoid problems, etc.) or questions related to a current project. In general, the explanations will be made with standard support projects. For bigger issues, you can send us your project and drawing files and we will do our best to help. If the problems cannot be resolved during the support session, we will transfer them to our standard technical support procedure.

Internet training allows for a thorough insight into a part of the program. As a program user you have two options: you can request an individual training or you can join one of the regular public trainings. In the first case you can select the training topic freely but you need to make your training request at least 7 days in advance. In the case of public trainings the topic and date are already set and you need to apply at least 24 hours in advance. Public training dates will be announced on our website www.integracad.com at least two weeks in advance.
