Weld Gaps

Use the Weld Gap option to create a gap between pipes and fittings to accommodate a weld. The gap can be defined for an entire route, a segment of the route, or at an individual endpoint.

Contents

  • Inserting Weld Gaps in a New Route

  • Inserting Weld Gaps in an Existing Route

    You can insert and change weld gaps in an existing route.

  • Weld Gap PropertyManager

    You can add weld gaps to an existing routing assembly from the Weld Gap PropertyManager.
