I asked a while back how many attributes can be contained in a Dynamic Component.
I have my answer; it turns out to be A LOT!
Below is a screenshot of the attributes panel for just one wall (SIP) component. It calculates everything from nails to termite proofing to flashings, anchor bolts, tie-down rods, different washers and matching nuts dependent on use, edge profiles, jointer heights / rake, and its final position in its designated pallet for delivery, and, and, and……………………!
All is reported, run through a custom cut-list and pushed through production, while materials are ordered or taken from stock; it also generates a full inventory of general hardware to be collected to accompany the delivery to site.
It shows all embedded structure for the engineer, connection guides and flags for fast peer review, and it also indicates the stops required at processing stations. Also included are indicators for jointer positioning required for drawings.
The final result, lots of embedded logic and almost as many embedded parts. Unlike regular OSB SIPs, these are quite complex given that the faces are its final cladding and lining; thus, I’m super surprised this could all be handled in a DC!
