To Create a Fire Hydrant

Use the Fire Hydrant Creation workflow to create fire hydrants that are connected to the main pipe with a generated straight pipe or a pipe you create.

You can also digitize an armature on the main pipe or a valve on the pipe.

If you do not create an armature, the system creates a fitting at the location where the pipe is attached to the main pipe (feature rule).

  1. In the Industry Model Explorer, click the Workflow explorer icon.  
  2. Right-click Fire Hydrant Creation.
  3. Click Execute.
  4. Specify a reference record, if any.
  5. Under Pipe from Hydrant to Main Pipe, select Straight Pipe or Digitize Pipe.

    If you choose Straight Pipe you are prompted to select the main pipe in the drawing. The connection is created as an orthogonal projection on the main pipe.

  6. Specify whether to add an armature, or a valve on the main pipe.
  7. Click OK.
  8. Follow the prompts.
  9. Press ESC to finish the workflow.

    When you are finished creating geometry, the feature class form is displayed so you can add attribute data.
