To Create a House Connection

Use the House Connection Creation workflow to connect the house connection to the main pipe with a generated straight pipe or a pipe you create.

You can digitize an armature on the main pipe at the position where the house connection is attached to the main pipe and add a valve on the pipe.

If you do not create an armature, the system creates a fitting at the location where the house connection is attached to the main pipe. This behavior is controlled by a feature rule, see Feature Rule: Create Start And End Nodes.

1. In the Industry Model Explorer, click the Workflow explorer icon.  
2. Right-click House Connection Creation.
3. Click Execute.
4. Specify a reference record, if any.
5. Under Pipe from House Connector 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.
