Plumbing Riser Diagram

In a major bind - have to have a plumbing riser diagram for a residential project in Ulster County New York. Just go in and got an additional fax to the corrections req'd for permitting that requested a the diagram. I have no idea how to do this and need it done by tomorrow (Tuesday June 02). Anyone that could turn this around that quick? PLEASE contact me asap!

Brayden:


sorry, but I am booked but here are some threads you can check about doing this yourself, or maybe someone else will have time to do one for you.


Try a search on "riser" if you need to see more threads, but some of the threads will be about stair risers.


Good luck


Lew

see post #8 for a traditional riser diagram
I prefer 3D style

They're actually called "Plumbing Isometric", try this for an example, and do a google search.

They are definately called riser diagrams. I've done my fair share of CIVIL design, and all gas and plumbing companies call them riser diagrams.

A "Riser Diagram" is shown in 2D, A "Riser Isometric" shows in 3D

Since serving my plumbing apprentiship in 1967, and being a plumber and licensed plumbing contractor and designer for over 40 years, I think I'll still call them "Plumbing Isometrics", thank you very much ;) . The term "riser" as it pertains to plumbing, means a "vertical pipe", that would mean if you are drawing a "plumbing riser" you would be drawing all of the vertical piping, not anything else. The isometric portrays the entire piping system, shown in isometric view with all water, DWV, and fuel piping, with sizing notes and relationship to one another.

Of course you folks back East are still using those silly little saws with the blade on the wrong side, while we're using real "skillsaws" out here on the left coast :p, so you can an Isometric, "risers" if you want.

whatever makes you feel better :) ..... i did all my civil in 2d, so therefor i was doing gas and plumbing riser diagrams in my MEP's.

You guys are funny! Anyhow, had a good friend of mine stop by who is a master plumber and he calls them either or and he is now doing the sizing, and layout for me and then I will create the 3D iso. Thanks so much though!

Residential Details collection has plumbing diagrams included. This collection is done in Chief CAD, 3d. Very easy to copy paste. The problem is finding an available copy as the author retired.

the post by Brooklyn is probably SPAM

How can that be spam when he has 211 posts? Is it possible?

Perry:

where are you seeing 211 posts ???

the post by Brooklyn only had 1 post and that has now been deleted by CA as I reported it as SPAM via the red triangle in the upper right corner.

Lew

Lew sorry, I guess that post has been already deleted before I looked at this thread.

Perry:

no problem

that's why I give the name of the poster
after the SPAM is deleted it avoids confusion as to who was reported

Brayden, I trust you were able to find what you were looking for - since this was a post from over the summer months.

it's a yellow diamond, not a red triangle


Chris:

maybe your color-blind, its red on my PC :)

maybe there is a setting somewhere ???

Lew

Yellow on mine as well. Is all this talk of spammers making you see red Lew? :p

Guys,

It depends what vBulliten style you are using.
Scroll down to the bottom of the page.
In the bottom left hand corner you can select the style.
The Report Post icon changes with the style.

Glenn:

you are correct, as usual

I am using the classic blue forum style

I don't like the new green look at all :eek:

Lew

Thanks for sharing this. I have no idea about this and looking for more information about this.

Thanks,
