ArCADia-Sewage installations

What is ArCADia-Sewage installations?

ArCADia-SEWAGE INSTALLATIONS is an industry-specific module of the ArCADia BIM system, based on the ideology of Building Information Modeling (BIM). The program can be used to create professional design documentation of drainage systems in architectural background drawings. The program is intended for designers of internal drainage systems.

ArCADia-SEWAGE INSTALLATIONS THE ARCADIA-SEWAGE FACILITIES

enable object-oriented insertion of drawing elements into architectural background drawings, including creating design diagrams and generating extensions and profiles. The user can design a drainage system in terms of drained wastewater: gray and black water, rainwater (for the location of the outlet pipes in a building or when it is necessary to run outlet pipes under the floor of a building) and process wastewater. Plane drawings can be produced in architectural background drawings in the form of bitmap or vector files.

Library

The user can use a library of the elements used in drainage systems, which can be extended and adapted to the user's own needs in relation to the devices used and the types of pipe material. A template can also be prepared, including the ability to save the default settings for each program element and transfer it along with a design between multiple workstations. Initially, the user finds risers for a group of recipients, including the ability to find the offsets (penetrations under floors) of ventilation and riser connection methods. For this purpose, the floor height and level height are entered (arcadia-architecture building geometry data will be generated automatically).

Device connections

The connections of devices for risers, can be designed and hydraulic loads can be defined on this base, which in turn allows to determine the diameter of the pipe. The program allows the definition of objects in the horizontal and vertical sections: cleaning, cleaning openings, access chambers, accessories (storm flaps) and background scenarios. An extension of a partial/integer system is generated based on data relating to a series of devices connected to a lifting and draining system.

The program generates longitudinal profiles of a system based on a defined gradient, determined diameters, and data relative to the base of the strip, and other objects. Individual parameters, for example, the diameter, can be further defined in such a generated profile, which will be considered in the general model of a drainage system.

ARCADia-SEWAGE FEATURES:

The insertion of piping routes into a drainage system, including a defined gradient, from the discharge point with an inspection chamber for sanitary installations, representing the types of discharged wastewater.

The insertion of discharge points, accessories, cleaning and automatic insertion of cleaning at the drainage level. The assignment of characteristic data to them.

The insertion of pipes, including automatic differentiation into drains, risers and fixing connections – an extensive library of materials.

The automatic generation of a connection set, including the possibility of modification and reflecting these elements in all drawings.

Drawing aids:

Drawing aids that allow a quick and easy way to create connections from multiple drains at the same time, depending on the connection method and the intended use of the fixed part. The selection of fixing connection connections for risers from the catalogs of many manufacturers.

The continuous insertion of vertical and horizontal routes of the system sections, the change of the levels of various elements of the system at the same time. Typical system elements can be saved to the program library.

Automatic creation of point numbering and system description, including the ability to edit and create user templates.

The complete automatic generation of extensions: drains, risers, fastening connections, including accessories and devices of a drainage system. The ability to edit and modify objects from the drawing level of the extension. Shortening long drainage routes and automatic compensations in the extension design to make the drawing more understandable.

The automatic generation of drainage and riser pipe profiles, including collisions with other systems from the ArCADia system modules. Consideration of connection objects and accessories.

The calculation of section flow rates, filling levels and speeds. The determination of the diameters of the drainage section, risers, drainage pipes and gradients.

A 3D preview of a gas system that makes it easy to fix an invisible pipeline route in the plane.

Checking a system for correct connections and an understandable method of detecting and correcting errors that allows for quick sorting by elements and their locations.

The generation of calculation reports, prefabricated bills of materials, devices and connection accessories included in the project for further processing.

Program requirements:
