• Piping isometrics are drawn for every piece of pipe required in the plant.
These drawings are 3-D sketches of the pipe run, indicating the elevations
and orientation of each section of pipe by three-dimensional computer
aided design (CAD) programs. They provide an opportunity to view the
local equipment topology from any angle at any location inside the plant.
One can actually “walk through” the plant and preview what will be seen
when the plant is built. The ability to “view” the plant before construction
will be made even more realistic with the help of virtual reality software.
With this new tool, it is possible not only to walk through the plant but
also to “touch” the equipment, turn valves, climb to the top of distillation
columns, and so on.
