I have a situation.I need to provide a vertical pipe from the ground level to the top level where the tank is situated. I'm attaching my water cad file.
Please review it and tell whether my drawing according to this situation is correct or not.
Thanks to both. It helps me. :)
Tomorrow I'll post a photo. I'll try my best to design that. Please review it later in the morning. :)
Till then thank you guys. ur'e awesome
ADR,
You are right. Use 'User Defined Length' connecting 250 and 265 elevation nodes and then place the two nodes together or place it just like nkg2 showed in the picture.
Placing nodes together will cause you difficulty selecting the pipe connecting those nodes. So it might be good not to put nodes on top of each other.
Thank You Akshaya.
I have been thinking and i think i got a solution. As you told we can vary the pipe length in the other post. So If we have to nodes at different elevations say 250 and 265. So we can connect these by pipes and add a 15 m pipe, Now we put the 265 elevation Node on top of it . This resembles a vertical pipe right.?
Please verify this. either creating a sample drawing on waterCAD. Please :)
When you place a junction, your pipe stops (or starts) right at the junction. With the bends, it's continuous. In the picture below, you can see the highlighted pipe is a single pipe starting from J-1 to J-2, however in the inner circle there are 11 pipes that's because of the junction in between.
1) Junction facilitates connection, bend does not2) At junctions, pipe will either start or end, that's not the case with the bends3) You can see hydraulic results at Junctions, not at the bends4) Bend defines pipe geometry/appearance, junction does not.
