Bentley Systems has evolved its legacy platforms. The core parametric and specification-driven logic from PlantSpace SupportModeler is now available in .
One of the hardest things in 3D piping is attaching to "Non-Standard" steel.
Deducted points for learning curve and licensing complexity. But once mastered, indispensable.

For organizations managing these tools, Bentley's licensing systems ensure that modules are properly activated across a network. Detailed pricing and product lists for these engineering solutions are often documented in resources like Scribd's Bentley Price List . 4. Industry Impact By using PlantSpace SupportModeler, engineering firms can:
Because SupportModeler lives within the Bentley ecosystem (usually OpenPlant or MicroStation), it participates in clash detection.
[Legacy PlantSpace SupportModeler] ──> [Modern OpenPlant Support Engineering] (MicroStation V8 XM Platform) (iTwin Digital Twin Framework) OpenPlant Modeler: 3D Plant Design and Modeling Software
The software includes extensive catalogs of standard support types (e.g., shoe supports, spring hangers, and clamps) that adhere to international engineering codes.
With SupportModeler, those problems are tackled systematically.
The user selects the appropriate support from the library.
SupportModeler ships with a library of standard support components (from sources like LISEGA, Piping Technology, Anvil, or user-defined). You pick a support type (e.g., a variable spring hanger, a shoe, a U-bolt, a rod hanger, or a base-mounted stanchion) and the software generates a fully parametric 3D model. You can adjust dimensions, materials, and attachment methods.
SupportModeler is famous for its ability to handle "Shorts." If a rod needs to be cut to a specific length on-site, the software can calculate the "cut length" versus the "stock length," which is vital for procurement and MTO (Material Take-Off).
