Creating Pipe Network Tables in Revit
Pipe network tables in Revit help organize and display pipe system data, such as pipe sizes, lengths, materials, and elevations. You can create these tables using Schedules.
1. Open the Schedule Creation Tool
Go to the View tab → Click Schedules → Select Schedule/Quantities.
In the New Schedule dialog, select Pipes (or Pipe Fittings, Pipe Accessories, etc.).
Click OK to proceed.
2. Adding Fields to the Pipe Schedule
In the Schedule Properties dialog, go to the Fields tab.
Select the data fields you want to include, such as:
✅ Pipe Name
✅ Diameter
✅ Length
✅ Material
✅ Elevation Start/End
Click OK to generate the table.
📌 Tip: You can add custom parameters to display additional information.
3. Sorting and Organizing Data
Open the Sorting/Grouping tab.
Choose a sorting method (e.g., by Pipe Size or System Type).
Check Itemize Every Instance to show individual pipes.
Click OK to apply.
📌 Tip: Use Filters to display only certain pipe types or sizes.
4. Formatting and Appearance
Go to the Formatting tab.
Adjust column widths and apply bold headers for readability.
Set Unit Formats for length, diameter, and volume.
Click OK to save changes.
📌 Tip: Use Conditional Formatting to highlight specific values (e.g., pipes exceeding a certain length).
5. Exporting or Placing the Table on a Sheet
✅ To place in a sheet: Drag the schedule from the Project Browser onto a Sheet View.
✅ To export to Excel:
Click File → Export → Reports → Schedule.
Save as a CSV file and open it in Excel for further analysis.
🚀 Quick Summary:
🔹 View Tab → Schedules → Schedule/Quantities
🔹 Select "Pipes" & add necessary fields
🔹 Sort, filter, and format the data
🔹 Place on a sheet or export to Excel
