Joins two existing pipe segments in the model. You can connect the pipe segments by selecting an end feature, a nozzle, a straight feature, an olet, a tee, or a surface mounted component. Also, you can bypass a pipe run by selecting a straight feature, an olet, or a tee. The software displays all possible route paths along the active coordinate system between the selected from and to points.
Places components such as valves, steam traps, strainers, tees, turns, and fire protection items.
