Civil Site Design - Pipes
Welcome to the CSD Pipes Help System.
CSD Pipes provides a dynamic design environment inside your AutoCD drawing for the creation, editing, plotting and reporting of pipe networks.
The CSD Pipes module has been designed as a complete design tool for the creation of:
Drainage Systems in accordance with Australian Rainfall and Runoff 1987
Sewer Systems accounting for house/property connection constraints, and
General Pipe/Structure Systems
CSD Pipes has also been designed to interact with the CSD Roads module, so pipes can have their position and level defined from Road design codes, and you can view crossing pipes to assist in your Road design processes.
To get the most out of the software users are encouraged to become familiar with this Help system and tutorials.
This help system is made up of the following components:
