Attributes

Required and optional XML attributes
Use enum
Required

The function of this pipe in the network.

Accepted Values
ValueDescription
Disused Non-pressure (gravity) pipe that is no longer in use but still present.
Effluent Pipe conveying treated effluent (usually from a treatment plant).
Reuse A pipe conveying low-grade (class B and below) treated effluent for reuse. Class A and A+ should use the water feature classes.
Rising A standard rising main or pressure sewer.
Scour A pipe maintained under pressure to scour a pressure main to a discharge point. Gravity scours should use the non-pressure pipe feature class.
