Render pipe network parts using the AutoCAD Render command.

The render material that is assigned to a pipe network part by default, upon creation, is defined in the parts list. After the part is added to the drawing, you can edit the render material for the part using the Render Material option on the Information tab of either the Pipe Properties or the Structure Properties dialog box.

For more information about rendering AutoCAD Civil 3D objects and data, see Rendering Objects.

To render pipe network parts

  1. Create a pipe network.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • In Toolspace, on the Prospector tree, expand the Pipe Networks collection, then expand the desired pipe network, and click either Pipes or Structures. In the Prospector list view, choose a render material for the desired parts.
    • In the drawing, right-click the pipe network part and click Properties. On either the Pipe Properties or the Structure PropertiesInformation tab, select a render material.
    • Use the AutoCAD Render command to render the pipe network. For more information, see "Render a Model" in the AutoCAD Help.
