Understanding pressure parts
- [Narrator] In Chapter 10 we looked at a part networks, and in this chapter, Chapter 11, we're going to look at pressure part networks. Well, what's the differences? And the main difference, of course, is the parts themselves. The parts that we use, of course, with the standard part network is more focused on gravity design. So you're going to have your structures, which are usually clean outs, manholes of some sort. Whereas, with pressure pipe network system, you're not going to have manholes, but rather, you're going to have fittings such as a T or an elbow. You're also going to have an additional type of part called an appurtenance such as a gate valve. And all of this we're going to, of course, design and plan view. And just like we do with profile view with our standard pipe network, we'll work with designing in profile view. But designing a pipe network is a little bit more intense, because we can actually add parts that are simply focused on handling the vertical design. Here…
