Pipe Ends and Connections

ISODRAFT User Guide

Piping Components in ISODRAFT : Pipe Ends and Connections

Pipe ends will normally have specific text messages plotted next to them under the following circumstances:

•

At the start of a Pipe;

•

At the end of any type of off-line Branch;

•

At the end of a Pipe.

These messages show how the Pipe is continued from that point onwards, or any special Pipe end condition that may be required, as shown in the following examples.

Full E-W, N-S and elevation (EL) coordinates will be listed for the start and finish of each Pipe. They will also be listed at the end of every Tee off-line branch; in other words, at all connection points.

Where a Pipe is connected to another Pipe, the coordinates will be preceded by a CONT. ON message. In Figure 6:18.: Information at an end of a pipe connected to another pipe, a Branch of PIPE-36A is the HREF or TREF of the Pipe shown.

All changes in elevation will be marked at the first intersection point after the new elevation occurs.
