In this video, learn how to route piping from equipment using the grips, and add lines from pumps and vessels in your plant models.
- [Instructor] When we run piping from equipment,…we simply choose the nozzle that we're connecting to…and look for the continued pipe grip.…When we do this, Plant 3D will automatically select…the appropriate flange or connection.…Let's start to build our structure and equipment models…by adding some piping.…Let's go ahead and open drawing 05_03.…We're going to run some pipe from this pump here.…I want you to look at the equipment for Pump 503B.…You can just hover over the equipment,…and you'll see that's 503B,…and this one's 503A.…
We're going to work with this one for now.…I want you make sure that your…Dynamic Input's turned on for this.…Just a little trick that we can do here,…if you come down to the lower left-hand corner…of your AutoCAD menu and you'll see this little…three-barred button down here that says Customization,…if you click this on, up near the top,…you'll see there's a section here for Dynamic Input.…Check this on or off.…What this does is gives us the option to toggle this…from the bottom of AutoCAD.…
