Branch piping is not connected to the main header pipe on converted PCF file. As seen in the following screen shot, Group 5 (segments F-G) are not connected to the main header of Group 4 (segment D-E). Otherwise it would be a single group.
How to fix this problem?
This issue appears to be a modeling problem in the program that created the PCF file. After reviewing the node point coordinates in the original PCF file to be translated, it was determined that there are no points specified on the header pipe for a tee connection.
Fix the problem by reviewing the original file in the application that created the PCF file to be sure that the piping is correctly connected.
