  3. If you want to exclude individual dimensions from use, open the table below by clicking on Details >>.
    Note: When starting the pipe network calculation, the smallest dimension is selected for all trench sections for which the dimensions have not been locked. The smallest dimension is always the top active dimension in the lower table. If you do not want to go below a certain dimension, deactivate the smaller dimensions. Deactivated dimensions are still available for manual selection in the calculation dialog in the Trench Sections area.
  4. If necessary, deactivate the Active field for pipe dimensions that are not to be used for calculation and sizing.
  5. Close the dialog with OK.

Results

The selected material is used for calculation and is given out in the calculation dialog as well as the material lists.
