In this section
- Can the network be integrated into an OpenBIM workflow?The module allows EXPORT the Clear Layer: network to IFC Format, preserving all Nodes: properties of the Node: and conduits as Occupied…
- What are the main components of a network in MDT?The module is based on two fundamental entities that store their properties implicitly in the drawing: the Nodes, which represent the…
- What technical information does each Node store?Each node stores critical data such as its identifier, X and Y coordinates, terrain elevation (which can be obtained from the current…
- Is it possible to automatically create nodes from blocks in my drawing?Yes, the Create Nodes from Drawing command allows you to convert CAD points, blocks, or MDT Points into network nodes in bulk. During this…
- How can a network be defined from an existing polyline?MDT allows you to automatically generate pipes and nodes from a polyline on ground plan. If the polyline is 3D, the nodes take the…
- What is a "slope" at a node and what is it used for?The slope defines a Difference of Cota between the inlet and outlet of a section in the same manhole. It is a fundamental tool to Console…
- Can pipe trenches be designed?Yes, when defining or editing a section, MDT allows you to configure the characteristics of the Water depth:, including its Width, Depth…
- Is it possible to view pipes in the terrain cross sections?Yes, the Draw Pipes in Cross Sections command allows you to project the pipe section onto a previously drawn matrix of cross sections. The…
- How can I view my pipe network in 3D?MDT has a function to generate a realistic 3D representation of the network using cylindrical objects for the pipes and specific blocks…
- How does changing the slope affect the node elevations?The front editor allows you to modify the slopes of the previous and next pipes. A change in the value of the slope of the previous vertex…
- Is it possible to physically relocate a node while working on the longitudinal profile?Yes, the Edit Nodes in Front command includes a button called Select, which allows the user to graphically select a new node position on…
- What is the "Slope" in front editing and when is it used?The Slope is a property that defines a Difference of Cota between the Check and the output of a Pipes in the same Node. It is used mainly…
- Are changes made in the Front automatically synchronized with the plan drawing?Yes, MDT guarantees bidirectional synchronization. Any modification made in the Front (such as changes in Depth, Sheet of Water, or…
- How to avoid nodes being created at every vertex of the polyline when creating a network section?When generating a network section in plan from a polyline with several changes of direction, MDT creates nodes at every intermediate…
- How to assign different diameters within a single pipeIn the MDT Networks module it is common to have a pipe of the same type but with a different diameter at different points along its route…
- Pressure network at a fixed depth and trench volumesTo draw a pressurised water distribution network at a constant depth below the terrain (1 m, for example) there is no need to enter the…
- Can utility networks be designed with tcpMDT Professional?Can service networks be designed with this version? Yes, TcpMDT Professional includes specific TOOLS for the DRAWING and management of…
