Piping plan

The pipeline plan is a technical drawing for the planning and construction of pipelines in large plants such as steam power plants , refineries and production facilities in the chemical industry .

The pipeline plan is created together with the installation plan after the completion and approval of the P&I flow diagram. In the pipeline plan, all pipelines and, in some cases, other system parts within the entire system complex, such as a machine house, are shown geometrically correct. The fittings and pipe supports are also drawn in.

In addition to the pipelines, the installation plan also includes the installation of other system components such as pumps , heat exchangers , pressure vessels , reaction vessels and other system components.

Completely dimensioning and positioning the entries for the parts list , on the other hand, does not make sense in many cases, as the large number of pipelines shown often makes this seem impossible. The planning tool pipeline isometry is used for this purpose .
