About the Length Check Pipe Rule

This rule governs the behavior that produces a warning condition on a pipe if the pipe length exceeds the value specified for the maximum pipe length, or is less than the value specified for the minimum pipe length.

This rule determines whether the 3D length of the pipe meets the values specified for the minimum and maximum pipe lengths. For this rule, the pipe is measured from pipe end to pipe end, not from the inside edge of the structure.

This rule is useful for design situations that require or recommend a maximum, continuous pipe length. This rule also includes a minimum pipe length warning option. Keep in mind that this rule does not prevent you from exceeding the minimum/maximum lengths. It notifies you that the specified length is being exceeded.

Parameters
