OpenBuildings Building Systems Design

Hi, I'm looking at the use of the Mechanical, Plumbing & Electrical ribbons in OpenBuildings Designer and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of any useful training information / tutorials.

I was also wondering how to attach different pipe / pump specs etc to the existing menu.

Thanks

  • Hello Alifur, 

    I have been looking through the Bentley Learn server for Piping/Plumbing training but I couldn't find anything. There are trainings for HVAC and for Electrical though.

    Maybe Plumbing and Mechanical are sufficiently similar to use the same training for both? Anyway, what I'm looking for is to get some answers and best practices related to configuration of plumbing systems:

    • How to change the datagroup type of an existing pipe/pipe fitting
    • How to configure a piping datagroup system so that it uses the correct fittings (certain properties, bending radius, ...)
    • How best to deal with insulation. I see we can set it in the datagroup definition but there also is a button for insulation.
