Cold bending elbows for pressure pipes

I want to draw a gas pipeline?  My pipelines will have cold bended elbows. Those elbows are made in constuction site with bending mashine, they are not fitings  they can have almos every angle in vertical or horizontal plane. 

 

How I draw those pipelines in Civil3d?

Hi Kresimir,

 

I don't believe it's possible to draw a pipe with bands as one piece. The closest you can do is to draw with "Pipes only" and using a curve option in the command prompt.This will allow you to bend, but unfortunately it will not be a single pipe as program will throw a break at any PI. Graphically it will not look too bad, but if you will be calculating materials you would not get correct number as these will be treated as the individual pipes.
