Parametric Isometric Routing
You don't have to draw in perspective. The plugin allows you to draft in a 2D isometric grid mode, defining X, Y, and Z coordinates manually. This is essential for industrial plants where precision matters more than visualization. The Evolution of MEP Design: An Analysis of
2. Parametric Component Library (v2.17 Enhanced)
- 1,200+ preloaded fittings: ANSI, DIN, JIS, and custom user profiles.
- Exclusive to v2.17: Dynamic tagging system for BOM export (CSV/HTML).
- Fittings auto-align to pipe ODs and schedules (Sch 10 through Sch 160).
: A specialized tool for editing placed fittings. It allows you to: 1,200+ preloaded fittings: ANSI, DIN, JIS, and custom
- Install via SketchUp Extension Manager or provided installer; enable in preferences.
- Start on small trials: model a short run, export BOM, and test edit propagation.
- Keep components organized in groups to avoid unintended edits.
- Use layers/tags to control visibility of piping vs. architectural geometry when routing.
- For large models, model runs in segments and use groups/components to reduce redraw overhead.
