3D layout of systems can be highly expensive as it is evaluated too late in detailed design process. Any architecture changes in that phase of the process is risky and expensive 3D Systems layout architecture validation can be complex due to lack of traceability with installation requirements & rules.
CATIA Systems Logical 3D Architecture brings 3D to logical systems for space reservation and pathways connection. It provides easy to use 3D modeling tools for systems architect to quickly define and investigate several 3D layout alternatives early in the product design process. Together with Digital Mock Up and Knowledgeware products CATIA Systems Logical 3D Architecture allows the validation of the 3D architecture of logical systems with respect to installation requirements.
Logical Systems 3D Architects can take benefits of CATIA Knowledge Expert Product for the definition and automatic validation of installation requirements.

Customer benefits :
Agility to investigate more design alternatives
Easy to use 3D design functions together with a logical abstraction of the product definition enable to quickly evaluate several alternatives of 3D architecture prior to the physical detailed design.
Traceable validation of design choices
The logical 3D architecture captures a traceable referential for the collaboration inside the design teams to be use along the complete product life cycle. For example with links from 3D volumes to ENOVIA Requirements they represent.
Early Validation of 3D architecture reduces integration problems in physical design
Allow defining and validating the logical systems 3D architecture early in the product development process in order to reduce costly design changes late in the product development process.
Referential for collaboration in enterprise (engineering, management, etc.)
