| Module Description: |
In this module the learner will use piping software such as AutoCAD Plant 3D and AutoCAD P&ID to produce pipework drawings. The learners will produce P&ID’s, equipment layouts and piping systems by drawing in 2D, Isometric and 3D. From the information stored within the software Material Take Off lists will be generated. |
| Learning Outcomes |
| On successful completion of this module the learner will be able to: |
| LO1 |
Use Industry Specific 3D piping software |
| LO2 |
Convey piping requirements graphically |
| LO3 |
Design and produce 2D and 3D equipment layout drawings |
| LO4 |
Produce Material Take Off lists using the drawing software |
| Pre-requisite learning |
Module Recommendations
This is prior learning (or a practical skill) that is strongly recommended before enrolment in this module. You may enrol in this module if you have not acquired the recommended learning but you will have considerable difficulty in passing (i.e. achieving the learning outcomes of) the module. While the prior learning is expressed as named MTU module(s) it also allows for learning (in another module or modules) which is equivalent to the learning specified in the named module(s).
