Withinindustry, piping is a system of pipes used to convey fluids (liquids and gases) from one location to another. The engineering discipline of piping design studies the efficient transport of fluid.[1][2]

Industrial process piping (and accompanying in-line components) can be manufactured from wood, fiberglass, glass, steel, aluminum, plastic, copper, and concrete. The in-line components, known as fittings,[3] valves, and other devices, typically sense and control the pressure, flow rate and temperature of the transmitted fluid, and usually are included in the field of piping design (or piping engineering), though the sensors and automatic controlling devices may alternatively be treated as part of instrumentation and control design. Piping systems are documented in piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs). If necessary, pipes can be cleaned by the tube cleaning process.


Piping sometimes refers to piping design, the detailed specification of the physical piping layout within a process plant or commercial building. In earlier days, this was sometimes called drafting, technical drawing, engineering drawing, and design, but is today commonly performed by designers that have learned to use automated computer-aided drawing or computer-aided design (CAD) software.


Plumbing is a piping system with which most people are familiar, as it constitutes the form of fluid transportation that is used to provide potable water and fuels to their homes and businesses. Plumbing pipes also remove waste in the form of sewage, and allow venting of sewage gases to the outdoors. Fire sprinkler systems also use piping, and may transport nonpotable or potable water, or other fire-suppression fluids.


Piping also has many other industrial applications, which are crucial for moving raw and semi-processed fluids for refining into more useful products. Some of the more exotic materials used in pipe construction are Inconel, titanium, chrome-moly and various other steel alloys.


Process piping and power piping are typically checked by pipe stress engineers to verify that the routing, nozzle loads, hangers, and supports are properly placed and selected such that allowable pipe stress is not exceeded under different loads such as sustained loads, operating loads, pressure testing loads, etc., as stipulated by the ASME B31, EN 13480, GOST 32388, RD 10-249 or any other applicable codes and standards. It is necessary to evaluate the mechanical behavior of the piping under regular loads (internal pressure and thermal stresses) as well under occasional and intermittent loading cases such as earthquake, high wind or special vibration, and water hammer.[4][5] This evaluation is usually performed with the assistance of a specialized (finite element) pipe stress analysis computer programs such as AutoPIPE,[6] CAEPIPE,[7] CAESAR,[8] PASS/START-PROF,[9] or ROHR2.[10]


In cryogenic pipe supports, most steel become more brittle as the temperature decreases from normal operating conditions, so it is necessary to know the temperature distribution for cryogenic conditions. Steel structures will have areas of high stress that may be caused by sharp corners in the design, or inclusions in the material. [11] When 3D pipe stress is analyzed, it (3D Pipes) will be considered as 3D beams with supports on both sides. Moreover, the 3D pipe stress determines the bending moments of the pipes. Allowable (ASME) Pipe grades permitted for Oil and gas industries are : Carbon Steel Pipes and tubes (A53 Grade [A & B], A106 Grade [B & C]), Low & Intermediate alloy steel Pipes (A333 Grade [6], A335 Grade [P5, P9, P11, P12, P91])


Early wooden pipes were constructed out of logs that had a large hole bored lengthwise through the center.[13] Later wooden pipes were constructed with staves and hoops similar to wooden barrel construction. Stave pipes have the advantage that they are easily transported as a compact pile of parts on a wagon and then assembled as a hollow structure at the job site. Wooden pipes were especially popular in mountain regions where transport of heavy iron or concrete pipes would have been difficult.


Wooden pipes were easier to maintain than metal, because the wood did not expand or contract with temperature changes as much as metal and so consequently expansion joints and bends were not required. The thickness of wood afforded some insulating properties to the pipes which helped prevent freezing as compared to metal pipes. Wood used for water pipes also does not rot very easily. Electrolysis does not affect wood pipes at all, since wood is a much better electrical insulator.


In the Western United States where redwood was used for pipe construction, it was found that redwood had "peculiar properties" that protected it from weathering, acids, insects, and fungus growths. Redwood pipes stayed smooth and clean indefinitely while iron pipe by comparison would rapidly begin to scale and corrode and could eventually plug itself up with the corrosion.[14]


Good day. I have a project that I am not working on but was asked to help. A user reached out saying that when they changed one of the piping systems from Heating Water Return to Heating Water Supply, all the Return piping turns to Supply. None of the piping was connected to any equipment (user was told not too). I went in there today and connected the piping to some base mounted pumps to start the system, all looked great until I synchronized. After that, everything was messed up again. I have followed every segment of pipe and I do not see anywhere where the two different systems are connected. The System Browser does not show any equipment. I have disconnected sections of pipe, change the system classification and it all changes again. I am at my wits end and not sure where else to look. The purple pipe is return and orange pipe is supply (please don't ask about the colors). Doesn't matter what I do, everything changes even after breaking connections. Lastly, I tried the Change Type and Reapply Type and some of the segments only show Return options. Please help.


Jason, I feel your pain and had a very similar, very frustrating and very time consuming problem on a large hot water system early in my Revit career. Following that I never make any connections between domestic hot water flow and domestic hot water return systems.


1. delete the systems (the systems, not the pipework!) in which case the pipework will become undefined. Then add a pipe (tee-off) of the correct classification to one of the undefined pipes - all of the connected pipes should adopt the classification of the new pipe. Then you can delete that temporary pipe and omit the tee by clicking on the minus sign at the branch or


I have been doing this for over 16 years and I'm not even sure what you mean by delete the system. How would I do that if there's no equipment connected? I have not tried the divide the system tool yet. I might try that this morning. Thanks.


After Dividing the systems, I was able to change them much easier without it changing everywhere else. Now the user can go through and find and fix the 9 additional systems that created. Thanks for the input.


I'd definitely recommend using the material_dir setting of the piping_material_source. The material_dir option will automatically calculate the WT_LEN if you use a different unit systems and generally MUCH easier to deal with.


The weight_length option is a bit trickier and requires some calculations beforehand, particularly when using IPS unit system. If you're going with this option, in Creo the mass and density values are explicitly not the weight (force) - gravity needs to be accounted for in any calculations. It is VERY important to note the difference between the Creo Parametric Default unit system and IPS unit system. IPS is a measure of pound-force and Creo Parametric Default is a measure of pound-mass. You will need to convert any standard "lb/in" densities to lbf by dividing by (32.174 ft/s2 x 12 in/ft).


The Great Lakes Piping Plover is a federally listed endangered species and is at risk of becoming extinct. This small bird species is a member of the plover family and is a summer resident in the Great Lakes region from mid-April to mid-August. During the winter, Piping Plovers can be found along the Gulf of Mexico and the southeast Atlantic coast.


Piping Plovers require wide, undisturbed sand and gravel beaches with stones and pebbles. The changes Great Lakes water levels, combined with coastal development, make this habitat rare. The northern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron and the southern shore of Lake Superior provide some of the best Piping Plover habitat in Michigan.


Piping Plovers are very sensitive to human presence and too much disturbance may cause them to abandon their nests. Foot and vehicle traffic in sand near or in nesting areas may result in crushed eggs or chicks. Unleashed pets also can harass and even kill nesting Piping Plovers and their chicks.


To combat these impacts, the Superior Watershed Partnership and the Great Lakes Conservation Corps have worked since 2011 in cooperation with the US Fish and Wildlife Service Coastal Program (USFWS), Lake Superior State University, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), the US Forest Service Hiawatha National Forest (USFS), Three Shores Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area, and multiple other regional interest groups/organizations to educate residents and visitors about the species and improve and protect important nesting habitat throughout the Upper Peninsula and Northern Michigan.


Efforts have included invasive species mapping and removal, the implementation of physical shoreline barriers to ATVs and other vehicle traffic (split rail fencing, posts, brush, etc.), and the installation of informational signage near nesting sites throughout the region.


In the 1980s, the population of Great Lakes Piping Plover included as few as 11 nesting pairs. As recently as 2017, 76 nesting pairs were documented throughout the region. While the Great Lakes population still has a long way to go, it is hoped that the combined efforts of the many invested organizations, educational institutes, and volunteers will continue to expand and stabilize the population of this extremely vulnerable species (population statistics obtained from the Great Lake Piping Plover Conservation Team at www.greatlakespipingplover.org).
