Schedule Piping Profile Configuration Table

Johann_P

Hi there

I have been trying to setup a table for schedule piping (ASME/ANSI B36.10M) for some time now but are struggling. I would like it in my profile library so only need a sketch profile.

Have anyone done this?

I built a simple one for ANSI ASTM A53. Feel free to make your own copy, use it as a template for a different standard etc. Let me know if you have further questions!

Thank you Kevin.
Can you explain your table, I think I almost understand what you did.

For sure! First table (Schedule) is basically selecting the integer that drives the selection for the second table (Nominal Pipe Size). It also drives the first half of the Pipe Profile name. 

In the second table, I'm using an indexed array to select the appropriate value for OD and ID. Essentially configuring the configuration table. See this forum post for a similar but more detailed explanation (a very similar example actually!)
