Shrivallabha RedijHere’s some more comment on the Dimensioning:
[quote]Hi 11echo,
I agree with your response. For whatever reason, I was overlooking the fact that the suction piping does not need to come back on itself in my description of reconfiguration. Your solution is correct and would allow for the removal of not just pipe supports PS-001A and PS-002A, but also PS-005/6 and 7 and give all around access to the pumps, which is of course how the piping should have originally been designed.
In regards to your last comment on dimensioning; in the transition from manual drafting to 2D CAD and to 3D CAD, it appears that designers are no longer being educated on how to correctly dimension a piping drawing. The example before us demonstrates several poor dimensioning practices]
