Many of you know how to specify a sloping pipe. You simply use the Define Sloping Pipe command on the Pipe Elevation flyout of the Piping toolbar. You enter the Rise and Run and then pick the appropriate ends of the pipe depending on how you answered the Low End/High End question.
But what is you don't know the slope? Or you don't feel like figuring it out? Easy: If you input a rise of 0 and a run of 0 the program will calculate the slope and pipe length when you switch to the System Model. To do this, pipe elevation defLines are required on both ends of the sloping pipe. This is similar to the requirement for computer generated Riser Nipple lengths. Just make sure to pipe the pick the appropriate ends of the pipe depending on how you answered the Low End/High End question.
