This video is going to be on creating a pressure network parts list.
This is important because creating a parts list for the specifics of the project you're working on,
will make those components available during the designs.
There are a lot of available parts. So, this will also help with the standardization of future projects.
The first thing you should do is make sure that you're using the catalog that the pressure components are coming from.
I'm going to go up here to the Create Design panel pulldown and go to the Set Pressure Network catalog.
And in here, this is the catalog folder, and the actual folder that you're using the imperial one in this case,
and then the catalog databases that are in that location are listed here.
I'm going to stick with the PushOnSqlite database because that's holding the pipe parts that I want to work with. I'll just click "OK".
Next, I'll go to the Settings tab.
In here, I'm going to scroll down until I can see the Pressure Network, not the regular Pipe Network but the Pressure Network.
I'll expand that open, expand open Parts List.
And I see that the one that I want isn't here. So, I'll "Right Click" on Parts List and say New.
In here, I'm going to change the name of this on the information tab to "Ductile Iron".
And then I'll go to the Pressure Pipes tab, so I can start bringing in pressure pipe parts.
I'll "Right Click" on New Parts List, Add Material.
And because of the database, I have ductile iron, I'll select that. Choose "OK".
Now I'm going to expand that open and I've got the right material but I need to "Right Click" and Add Size.
Now in this case, there's quite a few sizes that I can choose from.
The project that I'm working on, I know that I only have 6-inch, then I'll click "OK".
I'll "Right Click" on, Add Size again, choose 8-inch and "OK", and "Right Click" and Add Size and add 10-inch.
Notice first of all that the values are reducing, they're not showing the 6 and the 8 when I've already picked those.
Also the other items like the outer diameter, cut length, allowable deflection, and settings such as that are available in here.
I'll click "OK" to finally populate that.
Then I can go through and set styles, simply click the little icon in the back of the field here and choose which style you want.
I actually like the Centerline (Water), so I'm going to leave that.
I could also set render material and pay items for these.
Next, I'll go to the Fittings tab.
I'll "Right Click" on the New Parts List Name and click "Add Type".
In here, I'm going to add Elbows and Tees.
You get a little preview so you know that you're picking the right thing here. I'll click "OK".
In here, I'm going to "Right Click" on one of those items and Add Size.
Now in this case, there's a lot of different options that we have here.
Because we've got all of the sizes, plus when they're reducing down to other sizes.
So, instead of just picking one by one, I'm going to click Add All Sizes.
I'll click "OK".
I'll see in our list that there's quite a few here. I don't have any 4-inch on this project so I can get rid of those.
But I do have the 6-inch, 8-inch and 10-inch options.
So, I'm just going to get rid of the ones that I know aren't affecting me.
I'm going to "Right Click" and Delete once I have them selected.
I'll select this, I'm just "Shift" selecting the ones that I want to get rid of.
I’ll click "Delete", and now we have a much more appropriate list.
I'm going to repeat these steps for the Iron Tee.
And in here, I am going to add all sizes.
And again, check for the ones that don't fit the type of project that I'm working on.
Scroll down and get the rest of those out of this list.
Now I'm going to switch over to Appurtenances.
I'll "Right Click" and Add Type.
In here, I happen to know that I only want the 200 psi versions of this, so I'm only going to add that gate valve.
I'll click "OK". Expand that open, "Right Click" and Add Sizes again.
But this time, I'm going to have a much shorter list. I'm going to add all sizes.
Now we're ready to go.
I'll click "OK".
And now that parts list is added to the Parts Lists' list here and will be available when I start to add in my pressure network parts.
