AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Layout For 8" And 6" DIP With Bends
Oct 11, 2012I need to do a pipe layout for 8" and 6" DIP with bends. Is this possible using C3D? Or is can you only connect pipes to structures?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Edit Pipe Network Layout?
Jul 5, 2012What would be the best way to edit a pipe network's layout (pipe position, pipe slope, structure height, etc.)?
The easiest way I can think of is to create alignments of all the pipes in the network and then editing the grips in the profile view of each alignment, easily changing the pipe's slope and depth...
The catch with this method is that:
- it takes a while to create all the alignments needed;
- I have to manually adjust the alignments if I need to change the pipe network position on plan.

Nov 19, 2013I'm modeling a hydro scheme access track about 4m wide that meanders down a steep hillside at 1:8 with a couple of hairpin bends where the gradient is 1:20, what is the best way to model this?I have got polylines to define the hairpin and also offset alignments but I need to ensure that the outside edge of the hairpin at entry is used as a level target for the inside edge on exit for the length of the hairpin.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Model A Force Main With Several Vertical And Horizontal Bends?
Sep 5, 2012I am trying to model a force main with several vertical and horizontal bends. Getting the network set up and drawing in the pipe segments with the styles is a sinch, what I am having trouble with is modelling the horiz and vert bends to show up both in plan and profile view. I have done many sany and storm profiles but this is a first time with a force main. Does Civil 3d have the capability of modelling these or is this more of an MEP type task?

Jan 8, 2014One of the things I seem to struggle with is being able to depict a single pipe when it needs to be shown in one profile as a crossing pipe, and another profile where you you show a lenghwise slice through the pipe. I end up tracing the pipe with eliptical objects where I'm cutting across the pipe and setting up more for the lengthwise/sideview of the pipe. Is there a way to have two different styles for the same pipe, one for a cross cut and one for a lengthwise slice?

I tried using the "BEND PART", but I can only select one line. What should I use so I can bend all four sides up?

AutoCAD Inventor :: DXF Created Where Bends Are Facing Up
Sep 20, 2012I couldn't find where this was covered, but I create a dxf from my .ipt files for the machines to cut from. When I RMB on the flat pattern, in the browser, the dxf is created with the bends down. I am needing to do this with the bends up, so when the laser operator stacks the parts cut, the flat will be in the proper position for the brake operator. Is there anyway to have my dxf created where the bends are facing up?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Presenting Bends On More Than One Drawing
Apr 17, 2013With a part that has 6 bends to be made… is it possible to present only 5 bends on one drawing, and the last one on another drawing??
For example:
I have 6 bends to make on “Backliner-01.ipt” and this is what I have to present:
A first drawing, showing 5 of the bends. On my second drawing, hardware is installed. On the third drawing, showing that the last assembly has to be bent. On the last drawing, a final assembly… that has to show all of the parts (not only the assembly's).
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pipe Rules Not Followed Exactly?
Nov 1, 2013I created a pipe rule and applied it to my 6" HDPE pipe in my parts list. The rule is followed close but not exact. Here it is:
I created a "cover only" rule for my 6" HDPE pipe. I have the maximum and minimum cover set to 3.50'. I have it the same so it will draw my pipe 3.50' deep. I don't want it to vary. It for drawing in existing underground power so when we cut profiles and sections the existing power shows up. We want it to show up 3.50' deep. I created a label style for my pipe that tells me start cover and end cover of the pipe so I can see it right there on the screen. The numbers range from 3.50' deep to 4.70' deep.
Why does the pipe not get drawn in exactly 3.50' deep?

Jul 31, 2012I have this block called gate valve. The base point is at the middle of the block. When I use this block as a style and insert it in profile it always places itself down low on the pipe. As you can see the grip is way above the top of the block and I have to move it into place anytime I use one. If I change the pipe inverts the gate valve block style lowers itself once again and I have to move it up into place. I have changed the base of the block but it makes no difference.
This is how the structure look in the object viewer. Notice the one on the right is the block that needs to be raised, however in the viewer it shows placed correctly.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Changing Pipe Material
Dec 11, 2012Version Civil 3D 2013....
A pipe network has been created & labeled. All pipes labeled correctly except one. The material for 15", 18", 24" RCP pipes labeled "RCP" but all the 12" pipes labeled "Reinforced Concrete Pipe". So I know I need to change the Material of the 12" pipe to read "RCP". I was hoping to just go to Pipe Properties & change it there for this dwg but it doesn't change.
I was thinking it might be in the part xml file but why would some label "RCP" and the 12" didn't? The Parts Catolog used in this dwg is the default from Autodesk. Also, in the Part List, Material is greyed out. That's the first place I went to change the Material.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Pressure Pipe Content
May 31, 2013I'm in the process of creating content for "pressure Pipe networks". I have created a number of pipes (HDPE, PVC and steel, sizes ranging from 20mm to 200mm). I have also created a number of Tees (Equal and reducing).
My question is.
If you draw in pressure pipe say 90mm ø and the insert a fitting say a 90x75x90 reducing Tee into the line. Then you wish to extend the pipe from the 75mm ø branch, it does not pick up it should be a 75mm pipe but defaults back to the setting (90mm) that you drew the original pipe line in, you have to change the default pipe type to 75 before extending the 75mm pipe from the Tee.
Below I have included a couple of screen shots.

I can create a pipe network, and label it, and see it in my toolspace, but it won't display it for any style in any format. I can bring in a data reference and label those, but can not see pipe or structure outlines or anything to that end. I have tried to recover, audit, purge. I am at the end, currently creating the pipe network, data referencing it in, and then just drawing lines between the labels.
