Component Creation

Referring to the Database Hierarchy, a pipework component must reside below an existing pipe branch element. Refer to Branch Element for a more detailed explanation of creating a pipework branch.

If the Current Element (CE) in the Model Explorer is not at the branch level, an error message is displayed summarizing the problem, for example in the following window an error explains that the element must reside below a branch or component element.

Select the correct branch element from the Model Explorer and click Set working pipe to display the Piping Component Editor window.

The Piping Component element(s) are owned by branch elements, these components dictate the shape and geometry of the pipework. Piping components can run from head to tail of the owning branch but can also be connected to other branches.
