[@DaveTupper-bx4dw]

I found this channel and it has help me out greatly. Thanks . DO you have a tip for connecting 2 different piping systems? Vent piping into sanitary or HWR and HWS connecting at the end of the loop.

[@bimitup]

Be VERY careful. NEVER connect one system into another directly.
Make sure you first put a tee in the system you want to connect into, and THEN extend the other system and connect to the "open port of the tee" =)

[@jonafarmanila513]

hi sir, can teach me how to create a dimension in isometric view...

[@bimitup]

Hi Jonafar.
Remember that in isometrics, dimensions get geometrically distorted.
That is why you can't really "measure" in isometrics. However, you can tag and annotate.
There is a long list of videos we will create before this one, but if it helps, in the meantime,
make sure you LOCK the 3D view before starting annotations.

[@BUBBLEGUMVID]

Hello @jonafar manila, Lock mo yung ISO view mo then click ka mo yung reference set plane mo from ARCHITECTURAL tab kung saan papunta yung Dimension mo then mag dimension kana tapos laruin mo lang yung grip point na lalabas gamit ang TAB sa keyboard para makuha mo yung saktong point.

[@fah2009ful]

You are really great and the confidence you have is the greatest ... thanks and continue

[@bimitup]

Thank you so much 😀

Elbow is not appearing when drawing duct.. What to do?

[@bimitup]

I assume you mean "pipe" instead of "duct". But either way:
Revit sometimes is a little buggy. Try "trim" from one pipe to the other (make sure you select the side you want to keep).
If not, change the order you pick the pipes. Or if not, extend the pipe a little more than required, and exaggerate the drop or rise and try again.
Sometimes you have to look for unusual approaches to keep working and not get stuck on Revit little bugs. Good luck!

[@sujithpayyanur9624]

@@bimitup Thank you

[@bimitup]

You are welcome!

[@ricardogallegosrdz4280]

Great video! My families of fittings are very poor, dont have that detail in the points where supposed start the pipe, where I can find this families that you use?

[@bimitup]

Hi Ricardo.
[e-mail] =)

[@bimitup]

Thanks Ricardo. Most of the fittings are Autodesk out of the box with slight modifications. Good luck!

[@jayportland]

Stick it to the Aliens Alex!

[@bimitup]

You know it Jay ;)

[@fahadmahmood8460]

[@Deathvr210]

Where do those families come from in the directory? Are those from Autodesk?

[@bimitup]

Yes. Most are out of the box PVC Drainage (DWV) fittings. Good luck! =)
