And this is why Revit is not used for piping projects. Some great tips and the video is almost 10 years old. Now, if you HAVE to do piping in Revit, do fabrication piping, create a macro to extract a PCF file from Revit, and run the PCF through an ISOGEN program like P3D or the ISO software from ECE design. It takes some setup, but once the setup is complete you won't be spending 10+ minutes to do a spool drawing of 3 pipes and 2 elbows.
@@Ordinary-_-Guy For the longest time, I used Plant 3D. It is an okay platform, the things it does well, it does really well but it's just not good at producing construction documents. For the past year, though, I have been developing content for the Fabrication Piping in Revit, and that is going well. The "out of the box" fabrication parts in Revit are ok, so that is why I learned how to create my own. It's also best to use some 3rd party tools to create the spool drawings. Victualic Tools for Revit has some nice tools for doing the design, the spooling tool in that is mediocre but better than what is shown in this video and it's only $200/license/year. (Not knocking the video it is 10 years old, at the time, this was great). MSuite by Dewalt is a great spooling add-on but it is a bit pricier at $2000/license/year
not very helpful. missing cut lengths of pipe. What about welded pipe and weld tags? If I had to make all my fittings with that wedge, it would take forever.

So what do you use for piping project, I am just starting to laser scan pipes and want the best platform to create fabrication plans for replacements.

Interesting video, this is one way to do it but Victaulic Tools for Revit simplifies this whole process and is very affordable.
Could you make videos in full screen and hd
Thanks for video. It wasn't that complicated when set up.
How do you make that wedge?
How do you make the border of your pipe thicker when printing?
Hi, How can i get the victaulic add on on my revit 2016? thank you
since its not free, ask victaulic as i'm sure it's part of the package deal
