INTRODUCTION
Industrial processes that can be the transportation of liquids, gases or cables for
the transportation of electrical fluid, are generally represented in the technical
plans by means of lines that represent the pipe lines and by symbols that can
represent all kinds of components or accessories. , such as motor pumps,
compressors, valves, elbows, shunts, among others.
Pipe drawings can be in isometric or orthogonal projection, of course in the
case of orthogonal views multiple views must be presented to determine the
dimensions of the pipe sections and the location of the accessories or
components of the system. This condition implies that in many cases the
isometric projection is more used, through which the entire pipe network is
shown.
In the P&ID you can see the pipes, equipment and instruments of a plant, and
with enough experience you could understand the process.
But the P&ID are only a sketch of the plant, we cannot know the real shape of
the pipes or how the equipment is actually installed.
To really know what the design of the lines is like, isometrics of pipes are
needed.
GOALS
GENERAL:
Describe truthful, fundamental and precise information regarding pipe isometry,
emphasizing its importance, concept and parts.
SPECIFICS:
● Explain in detail the isometric diagramming process to facilitate its
understanding in the classroom.
● Emphasize the importance of pipe isometry.
● Present the parts to be made in this piping diagram.
Isometric projections are one of the most commonly used methods because
they provide an exact three-dimensional view of the pipe. , and its components,
also provide the manufacturer and construction crew with a complete
visualization of the line or system.
In the case of isometric projections, the pipe drawings are usually in real
representation, revealing characteristic details of the components of the system.
In some cases, the drawing in real view allows the components of the system to
be clearly seen and they are usually identified with items. so that whoever
interprets the plan determines the quantity or details of the components.
Isometric drawings can be used to detail and size a pipe, to order and specify
component parts, to mark special objects and pipe manufacturing notes, and to
locate pipe supports. In critical industries such as the nuclear field, pipeline
isometrics are used for seismic studies and thermal motions. Within a computer,
isometric drawings can be programmed with preliminary supports and hangers
and then analyze the systems reaction to earthquakes and thermal distortions
prior to installation, the design can accurately locate standard or special pipe
supports, hangers and steel hangers. crashes. (snubbers).

IMPORTANCE OF AN ISOMETRIC
Isometric plans are one of the most relevant documents generated by the piping
department. The weight of these plans for the planning of a project is very high
since they can become a bottleneck during the construction phase.
Based on these plans, lists of pipe materials are made (which will have to be
purchased), and they will be used to assemble them. The cost associated with
these two activities is very high and the implications that a bad design can have
are very high. Therefore, it is very convenient for the instrumentation
department to collaborate with the piping department during their development
phase.
PIPELINE
The main part of the document is the part where the pipeline design is shown in
detail.
1. System Isometrics
This type of isometric shows a total or partial system. It is used less
frequently than other types because it is more difficult to draw, displaying
a complete system rather than a simple line. System isometrics are also
used to graphically represent a piping system, for sales or advertising
purposes. Isometric drawing of the piping system is generally limited to
smaller diameter pipes, especially when threaded connections are used.
In this case, many dimensions are left to the manufacturer for field
placement. System isometrics are generally limited to relatively simple
piping systems.
Figure 7. Pipe isometric representation
These types of drawings locate only critical aspects of the system, such
as major equipment. Dimensions are given only for larger pipe
diameters; many dimensions are calculated in the field by the
construction crew. Face-to-face dimensions for connections, flanges and
valves are shown on these types of drawings; Many of the planned
dimensions are verified on the job site.
3. Detail isometrics
This type shows particular and special details, for example, it details the
trace of the steam vein in a pipe isometric. The special arrangement and
other essential information are shown in the detail isometric drawing.
This type of isometric will sometimes show a small portion of a pipe or
piece of equipment to present dimensions for manufacturing.
To draw a pipe isometric, practice accepts a scale of 3/8” = 1 throughout
the pipe industry. However in many cases it is necessary to disregard
scale completely and only draw the isometric in proportion to itself and
the existing equipment as well as other lines in the piping system. If the
system is immense (as in the case of power plants), a much smaller
scale will be used. Because the size of the sheet is a restriction, the
draftsman will trim the lines as appropriate within the prescribed limit.

CONCLUSIONS:
Isometric drawings are two-dimensional representations of piping
systems in which graphic symbols are used for the design, construction
and maintenance of process systems.
Piping drawings use symbols to represent pipes, joints, valves, and other
piping components.
In this type of piping drawing, pipes are presented in floor plans with
elevation views, section views, or illustrative views, specifically, in
isometric views.
