Pipe Database
This function enables you to create multiple
databases containing information regarding pipe

Water networks, electrical layouts, telecommunication
cables etc. You can then use these databases to
indicate crossing positions of the pipes/cables on Road,
Sewer, Storm and Water Long Sections as well as the Road
Vertical Alignment view. The databases can also be used
when running the checking for Pipe Clashes. |
