Sewer - Sewage and Rainwater Drainage System

The Sewer - Sewage and Rainwater Drainage System is an innovative Revit plugin that offers an automatic design solution for converting a generic piping system into either a sewage or rainwater gravitational sewer system. With its user-friendly interface and customizable features, this plugin streamlines the design process and provides accurate results for engineers and designers.

Efficient Design and Customization

One of the key features of the Sewer plugin is its ability to seamlessly integrate with the existing piping system in Autodesk Revit. By utilizing the desired slope, self-cleansing velocity, and restricted maximum level in pipes, the plugin automatically generates a new system that meets the required specifications. The depths of the newly generated system are coordinated with the topography, ensuring a precise and efficient design.

Furthermore, the plugin allows users to customize the design by automatically inserting manholes at junctions, direction changes, and predefined distances. This flexibility ensures that the drainage system is tailored to specific project requirements and enhances the overall efficiency of the design process.

Comprehensive Units and Custom Database

The Sewer plugin supports all metric and imperial unit systems provided by Autodesk Revit, making it a versatile tool for engineers and designers worldwide. This compatibility eliminates the need for unit conversions, saving valuable time during the design process.

In addition, the plugin offers a fully customizable feature that allows users to add a custom database for all new types of pipes and custom formulas. This feature enables engineers to incorporate their own specific design requirements, ensuring accurate results and enhanced productivity.

Accurate Calculations and Real-Time Parameters

The Sewer plugin utilizes fixture units (WFU) as a tool to calculate the sewage or rainwater flow on all system sections. Each section from the newly designed network will have parameters indicating the real flow and speed based on previously defined sizes. This level of detail provides engineers with accurate information for analyzing and optimizing the drainage system.

Moreover, the plugin facilitates the ease of updating and managing the system to cope with demands and identify deficiencies in the network for improvement. This feature allows engineers to constantly refine and enhance the design, reducing the required design time and eliminating errors.

Conclusion

The Sewer - Sewage and Rainwater Drainage System plugin for Autodesk Revit is an invaluable tool for engineers and designers involved in sewage and rainwater drainage system design. Its automatic design solution, customizable features, and accurate calculations make it a must-have for professionals in the field.

While the plugin provides a comprehensive solution, it is important to note that its accuracy is not guaranteed. Users should have a solid understanding of rainwater or sewage gravitational sizing and should not solely rely on the plugin without the evaluation and judgment of a professional engineer.

In conclusion, the Sewer plugin drastically reduces design time, eliminates errors, and maximizes the use of existing information in the Revit model. We highly recommend giving this plugin a try to experience its countless benefits in simplifying the design process and optimizing drainage systems.
