Work with pipe and pressure pipe networks

In this video, you'll learn the key differences between gravity and pressure pipe networks in Civil 3D. You'll explore how each system supports different utility design needs and how they are used in civil engineering workflows.

After completing this video, you’ll be able to:

  • Distinguish between pipe networks and pressure networks.
  • Explain when to use each type based on the utility system being designed.

Any referenced datasets can be downloaded from "Module downloads" in the module overview.
