Pipe Network Invert Design Using Camber/Python

[JPhil]

I went down a similar path to create something like this. Here’s a link to a DesignScript solution that could be used to calculate inverts after a drop along a length of pipes.

#Share: Iterating from an initial value, returning list of iterated results

Faced a challenge and thought I would post the results, assuming it might be useful to the larger community. Faced with variable subtractions, list lengths and initial values, I came up with the following. This could be used to calculate differences in geometry along a length. If nothing else, it’s a good learning exercise as it involves Imperative code, a While Loop, and Design Script. Hopefully my comments in the code block make sense. [WhileLoop]

As for Project Explorer, it had a bug that would disconnect the pipe from the structure after setting the grades along a length. Not sure if that’s been fixed.
