Create
Wrap the tank.
Generate clean 3D solids, stringers, steps and railing geometry matching tank diameter.
Equipment access / v1.1
Build parametric spiral stairs around storage tanks in Plant 3D. Control step geometry, configure landing elevations and edit 3D models with one command.
What it does
Generate parametric spiral stairs wrapped around cylindrical storage tanks. Set radius, height, step angles and landing elevations with full parametric control in AutoCAD Plant 3D.
Main commands
CDTANKSTAIRCreate parametric spiral stair around tank center.CDTANKSTAIREDITReconfigure and rebuild existing stair models.Create
Generate clean 3D solids, stringers, steps and railing geometry matching tank diameter.
Configure
Control riser height, tread width, intermediate landing elevations and handrail clearances.
Edit
Select any existing stair to adjust pitch angles, landing levels, or dimensions without starting from scratch.
Getting started
Run the CDTANKSTAIR command in Plant 3D after installation.
For supported cylindrical equipment and storage tanks in AutoCAD Plant 3D. Generates 3D layout geometry; structural calculations and local code verification remain the responsibility of the engineer.
