February 23, 2011 – Charlotte Pipe and Foundry Company’s extensive line of pipe and fittings are now available as Autodesk^® Revit^® drawings. The parametric files can be downloaded at www.charlottepipe.com and contain lots of useful data.

In addition to the drawings, users have access to specifications links, technical and installation manuals and a direct link to our website. Users can download individual products or they can choose to download groups of products, depending on their needs.

Until now engineers, contractors, architects and other Revit users relied on general files when designing their 3-D plumbing systems. By using Charlotte Pipe’s Revit offering, they can now use plumbing products with exact dimensions, making the virtual system much closer to a real-life installation.

Charlotte Pipe and Foundry is the only manufacturer that offers a system of ABS, PVC, CPVC, cast iron, FlowGuard Gold^®, ChemDrain^® ReUze^® and RePVC^® pipe and fittings for residential and commercial plumbing systems and industrial applications.
