Hi CRG, I'm Electronics Engineer and need check some Isometrics drawings so I need to learn about tips or rules for standar design. I can´t find anythinf of it googling. I need some like it :
..."1. Draw your coordinate system (XYZ) and stay with it. 2. If you are not drawing to a standard scale (1/8, 1/16) then dimension everything, or label it and have a size table attached. 3. Know what the takeoffs are for fittings, ie. 2" sch 40 CS BW 90 takes off 2.75". You should be able to find a pipefitters guide that will give you these. In the case that you cannot find this, make you dimensions from center to center of the fittings, the workers will figure it out. 4. If your pipe is going to 2 directions, ie 2' X+ by 3' Y-, then draw the triangles on there showing the piping leaving the traditional XYZ planes. 5. If your are makign multiple drawings, and they combine together in the field, mark the ends of the pipes on the drawings, they will then transfer this marking in the shop to the pipe and it makes the erection go a lot smoother. "...
Europipe, the piping checker will check it! but I only I want learn about it, can't I?.
I think that is a friendly forum and could get some information!,
Don´t worry man , BE HAPPY!!!!
Forget it!!
Hombre, yo solo quería aprender un poco sobre los criterios de diseño para hacer isometrías y si existía algun estandar internacional que te de los lineamientos de diseño.
CharlyV,
I am going against my better judgment but I will offer you some suggestions.
1, Buy the following book. It is for beginners and will be helpful.
Piping Drafting and Design
(Using manual, AutoCAD and Pro-Pipe Applications)
Roy A. Parisher and Robert A. Rhea
Gulf Publishing Company
ISBN 0-88415-657-5
Also available by the same author
Piping Drafting and Design “Workbook”
And
Piping Drafting and Design “Instructors Guide”
2, While you are waiting for that book to arrive go here (
click on the "Training" button and read everything (and I do mean everything) you find there. Then do the same for the "Tips" button and the "Tools" button.
This will only be a speed bump compared to the Mount Everest of information a real piper needs to know before he or she is considered a real "Piping Checker".
Bienvenidos a los forums. Que tenga expernencias mejores en el futuro.
You seem a little impatient. This is a forum to provide tips and basic help, but unfortunately not complete educations. You are asking for what it takes some years to learn, and what some never learn completely.
I think pennpiper has given you a good tip and I hope that leads you in a direction that works out well for you.
