Pressure Pipe Networks combine

Hi

 

 

I am creating a Pressure pipe network by converting polylines one at a time is there away to combine networks after the fact like with gravity pipe systems or can you edit and existing network and add pipes by converting a polyline object.

 

Regards

hello Justin

 

as far as i know. there is not a directly way could realize your demand.  

 

I would like suggest you 

1: convert the poline to objects.

2: merge the network in step 1 to existing network

3: after step 2, you can connects the parts in the same networ.

 

hope it helps, please let know if I mis-understand you.   thanks.

Justin,

 

In setting up pressure pipe networks from a survey I came across the same scenario. Did you have the opportunity to solve this?  Or did you end up editing the pressure pipe network and then essentially tracing the polylines?  I see the ability to merge pipe networks, although cannot find the way to merge pressure pipe networks

 

Any direction would be greatly appreciated,

 

Marc

I also looking for the solution to merge the pressure pipe! 🙂

 

Thx

Hi guys, has anyone got the awnser yet? I work in C3D 2018 and still dont see the option to merge the networks..

 

Looking at this post of the knowledge it still seems it is not possible to merge pressure networks. It would be awesome thought if we could just select polylines to add to a network.

Hiya, Just figured this out for myself,

 

1) Click on a pipe associated with a network,
2) The Pipe Networks Ribbon should show up go to the modify tab and click "Merge Networks"
3) Follow Prompts

 

Good luck, hope this helps!

Whoops just realized this was for pressure pipe networks, above post was for Pipe Networks,

Hello,

I am also using pressure pipe networks. I am designing a new water line for a neighborhood and I made each street its own network and figured I could just combine them later. Has anyone found a solution to this yet?

Thanks,

Good day,

 

I also want to merge pressure networks after creating them from objects. Has this been solved?

I was taught that each discipline (Water, Sewer or Storm) should be in its own network (Existing and Proposed pipes). If you have two networks going to the same point (structures) you won't be able to label ins and out for all lines automatically using Civil 3D labels.  All pipes need to be on the same network tied to each other. It sucks that Pressure Pipe Network doesn't give us the same option to merge but in Pipe Networks the pipe elevation control is set by the pipe invert and in Pressure Pipes the control in set by the centerline elevation of the fitting (two different methods).  I know this doesn't help anyone on this post or if you are looking for a fix but I hope this helps.

Update on this Civil 3D 2024 can now merge pressure networks.
To merge a network into another one use the command "mergepressurenetworks" select the first pressure network then select the second pressure network then they will be merged into the second pressure network.
Hope that helps have a nice day.
