Pipe Scheduling

Is there any way to associate a pipe's length and the flange of the pipe when scheduling within Revit?

 

Currently the pipe and flange are not associated and therefore not giving me a true reflection of the pipes length (including the flange). Can a formula be applied when setting up the schedule to include the increased length of the the pipe or to include the flange?

Yes. In your schedule fields - set up a calculated parameter with a formula. Give it a name that makes sense.

 

Pipe length parameter + Flange parameter

It sounds as though the flange length is separate from the pipe length, right? I don't see flange in the pipe schedule, so here goes - 

 

1) Add a shared parameter to your project and associate it with pipes

Manage>>Project Parameters>>Add

Create the new parameter. Call it Flange Length. Make it a text parameter,

Now, when you got create your pipe schedule, you should see the Flange parameter

Click on the highlighted fx. That will, help you to create the calculated parameter

Select the parameters from the list at the right, insert the + symbol between. That will give you the total length of the pipe.
