  Starting after Linac 3 at z ~ 430 m (z = 0 being the gun photocathode position), the so-called Aramis Hard-X ray undulator section extends over 170 m, from the energy collimator to the electron beam dump. Electrons enter the undulator section with a maximum energy of 5.8 GeV, a slice emittance below 0.43 μm and a peak current of 3 kA with 200 pC of charge. A prototype of the in-vacuum undulator (U15) is currently under assembly. Most of the other beamline components have been designed and for some of them prototypes are already ordered (quadrupoles, beam position monitors, phase shifters, alignment quadrupoles; mechanical supports; safety components). The paper will describe how constraints like temperature drifts, stray magnetic field, wakefields, beam losses, costs are taken into account for the design of components and building (undulators are however described in details in a companion paper).
