Connections Tab (Structure Properties Dialogue Box)

Use this tab to make adjustments to pipes that are connected to a single structure. This tab also lists pressure pipes that are connected to structures.

The Connections tab lets you quickly view and edit properties that are important for pipes connected to structures. For example, you can use this tab to edit the following properties on pipes connected to the selected structure:

• inner diameter
• inner width
• invert level
• centreline level
• soffit level

You can use this tab to quickly perform a variety of edits to pipes that are connected to a structure. You can align the levels on multiple pipes connected to the structure according to the invert, soffit, or centreline level of a selected pipe.

The following information describes the properties that are displayed on the Connections tab.
