“

- [Instructor] Welcome to Chapter 10, we're going to take a look at some piping processes. So, when we use the Walk The Run feature, the piping algorithm looks at the points in the circumference of the pipe and determines the diameter. In As-Built, there's a feature that allows us to run a routine on the visible points to determine the diameter of all cylinders at one time. Once this routine has been completed, the values are stored in the drawing file, and when we use the Walk The Run feature, As-Built already knows the diameter of the pipe we're modeling. This has increased the speed of the Walk The Run feature significantly. So, let's go through the steps and look and see how this feature works. Our point cloud is loaded. Now, I've gone ahead and sectioned this down into just a small area. You can see that when we put all points on, all the points are available, and we're just going to work in this area. So, let's take a look at the layers. You can see in this drawing, we have…
