AP 203 Edition 2 -- Configuration Controlled Design

Sample Programs

Creates a product with all of the STEP backbone entities needed to get started with geometry.

Creates a product with all configuration management data required for the original AP-203 Conformance Class One.

Constructs an assembly between two products, relating the configuration management as well as the geometry.

Print Bill-of-Materials report. Find all engineering assemblies in a STEP file and print their assembly structure as an indented list.

TOLERANCE

Reads an existing data file with geometry for a block and hole, then applies dimensions, datums, and tolerances to the faces.

Other Files

configuration_control_3d_design_mim_lf.ws: An example working set description containing recommended complex instance combinations (AND/ORs). Use this if you want to generate your own C++ classes with the EXPRESS compiler.
configuration_control_3d_design_mim_lf.nam: Short name abbreviations already installed in ST-Runtime.

Overview

EXPRESS source and associated files for STEP Part 203 Edition 2: Application Protocol for Configuration controlled 3D design of mechanical parts and assemblies. The second edition was published in 2005 as ISO/TS 10303-203:2005(E). This version was published as a technical specification rather than an international standard and was completely restructured as a modular document.

AP 203 E2 schema in a browsable form, as well as the EXPRESS file for the ISO/TS 10303-203:2005 document.

Refer to the first edition of AP203 for recommended practices and other supporting information. The second edition document is available on the ISO web site as well as through national standards bodies.
