monk Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Hello Im after some decent comprehensive legends for both mechanical and electrical. So a good pipework legend etc. Im british if that matters for language. Any help appreciated! Quote
Ryder76 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 What do you mean by legends? Are you saying you need symbols for mechanical and electrical? I'm from across the pond and am not sure I understand what you need. Quote
monk Posted August 12, 2009 Author Posted August 12, 2009 Yeah. What im trying to get together is a good list of symbols for piping and ductwork etc. So most pipwork valves IV's Gate valve, globe valve, etc etc with symbols. I have some legends already, but not as comprehensive as i would like. Just wanted to see what other people have. thanks Quote

monk Posted August 12, 2009 Author Posted August 12, 2009 I got that. Which is handy. not quite what i wanted though Quote
Ryder76 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Are you looking for P&ID symbols for piping? I guess I need to know what specifically you are looking for. Quote
Ryder76 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Many times you just have to build your own blocks for your symbols. Quote
tzframpton Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 See if this is something you can work with.... General Mechanical Legends.zip Quote
nukecad Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Hi Monk. So you are doing both Mech and Elec? Either you are on a par with Einstein or you are taking on too much. As for 'legends' if you want 2D or isometric valves, strainers, elbows, reducers, etc I have some saved as blocks on .dwg's Along with metric fasteners- drawn to the correct sizes (design centre ans such often just scale an M10 which dosent come out quite right, and full size tees, elbows, flanges, etc. to BSEN, ISO, and ANSI standards If you send me a PM with what you want and you e-mail I can send them to you. DON'T post your e-mail you leave yourself open to a lot of spam and worse. Edit- BTW as you are in the UK do you know this site, it can be very useful- http://www.roymech.co.uk/ Quote
monk Posted August 13, 2009 Author Posted August 13, 2009 Thanks for all the replys Stykface is on the right track. Im just trying to put together a complete legend of pipework fittings, electrical fittings, and ductwork. Quote
monk Posted August 13, 2009 Author Posted August 13, 2009 Im guessing i dont have enough posts to PM people yet! so ill have to work on that. Nukecad your 2D blocks would be useful too Not sure how without giving you my email! Quote
Ryder76 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Monk, keep posting until you get to 10. reply to this post, a 'how's the weather etc. Quote
