Tangent Elbows

Hi - is there a way to include consecutive elbows or bends in AutoPIPE? We have a model with back to back elbows and the model does not render the geometry well.


Second, it appears that the Elbow forum is missing previous pages. Is Bentley still working to restore these pages (or can a PDF archive of the old Wiki page be posted somewhere)?

    Hi Robert thank you for your enquiry. This is a question for our technical support group not an idea for the Ideas page. You can raise a Service Case here for more help https://bentleysystems.service-now.com/csp They can help you more there and address the ServiceNow problem. I can provide some help here for now.

    If the elbows are back to back then the bend radii will cut back the pipe so that they join with no straight pipe. So here you see too bends with 24" radii in a pipe 4' long. It the rendering doesn't look good, it is likely you have overlapping elbows.
