The options wizard guides you through the settings for the design.
Drawing-specific settings relating to your calculation are set in the Design options dialogue.
You can divide a drawing into construction stages so that you can later create a material extract according to construction stages.
In the Edit and Calculate work perspective, your selection in the drawing is highlighted in colour. Section properties and component properties can be displayed and edited differently from the global project settings.
The component filter allows you to quickly filter the selected components in the drawing.
The Drainage areas window in the Drainage section is divided into two tabs.
CALHYDRA has a parameterised search function that supports you when searching for drawn sections and components in the drawing and when selecting products.
With the preview of the calculation output, CALHYDRA supports you in customising the calculation output.
With the preview of the mass statement, CALHYDRA supports you in customising the printout of the masses.
With the material editor, CALHYDRA supports you with convenient and fast determination of your dimensions.
It is necessary to select the utilisation types in order to determine the peak flow rate, taking into account the simultaneity of the water withdrawal.
The minimum supply pressure can be defined in the options wizard using two options.
In the Calculation flow rates area, select whether the calculation flow rate from the reference values of DIN 1988-300 or from the stored manufacturer specifications is used for the design.
The selection of pipe definitions enables the quick assignment of different pipe sequences for each section type and the definition of the pre-wall system.
The respective ambient temperatures are of particular importance when calculating the cold water temperatures after a stagnation phase and the discharge times for overheated cold water. For this reason, the ambient temperatures must be determined on a project-specific basis depending on the installation conditions before the calculation.
The summary of the options wizard provides an overview of all previously made settings.
The Project data dialogue contains project information for the current project, for example for the project cover sheet or to determine the rainfall donations.
In the Product sequence or Product selection dialogue, select the product sequence or a product for components.
The simulation is divided into a circulation simulation for hot and cold water and a simulation of a cold water hygiene system.
The Insert drawing reference function guides you through the settings for inserting a drawing reference.
