Regarding the design of construction drawings, especially regarding piping, what are everyone’s opinions? How can we arrange the pipelines accurately (without making any mistakes when drawing), in a visually appealing manner, and also ensure accuracy when finalizing the material list? I earnestly ask all teachers for their guidance
I kindly ask experienced teachers and colleagues for their guidance
You can divide it into several sections, with different colors for the pipes in each section. Use the polyline command to draw, as this makes it less likely to make mistakes.
First, understand the process; then divide it into several sections according to that process, draw each one one by one, and finally go through everything in order following the process Of course, different pipelines should use different colors. I’m also new to this; these are my personal opinions!
Different materials are assigned different colors, and their thicknesses also vary. In handshake, materials such as process water, utility-grade water, and other similar substances are distinguished by different colors. Since it’s about layout, it’s important to be efficient while also striving for aesthetics: loveliness:
Distinguish between different types of pipelines and list them in a table. Check whether the functional requirements can be met based on the process requirements.
It can be done according to the properties of the materials; draw one type before moving on to another, so that the pipelines won’t get lost. Or you can proceed one by one in the order of the pipeline naming list you have prepared, and this way nothing will be missed ;
It is possible to draw each pipe one by one according to the pipe naming list; pipes carrying the same type of medium can be placed on the same layer (to facilitate modification), while different layers are distinguished by different colors. Material statistics can be summarized in a diagram showing each type of pipe separately. :lol
Make good use of the layer functions. Another thing is to develop good habits; it might not be easy at first, but over time it will be very effective!

I think it should be 20 degrees.
The introduction above is very practical; moreover, one can work from rough to detailed, from simple to complex, draft first, and then check it against the draft once it’s completed
LZ, this question is too broad; it can’t be explained in just one sentence. There are many reasons why things get lost sometimes: for example, lack of familiarity with PID, not understanding the material grade tables, failing to comprehend the piping diagrams, personal negligence, and so on. Even a highly skilled engineer cannot get everything wrong. One can only try to avoid making major mistakes, especially when it comes to valuable materials. The losses caused by such errors are quite enormous and terrifying. It’s mainly a process of accumulation.
No matter what the process is, there is a main thread; first consider that main thread and the layout of the main pipelines, and then proceed with the utility systems. Distinguish between primary and secondary elements, and make proper markings.
Using different colors and line styles to represent different pipes makes it easier to draw them clearly.
I break tasks into small parts and finish each one at a time; I hate it the most when people disturb me while I’m focused on doing something.
