Introduction
Thank you for choosing CYPE and CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems. CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems is a program created
for the design and analysis of potable water supply installations. This system is integrated in the Open BIM workflow via the
BIMserver.center using the IFC standard. CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems can perform a partial or complete design
installation of any building type. In this program, there are predefined equipment configurations as well as the option for
users to create their own custom equipment configurations. Users can design a water system installation in a 2D workspace
with 3D viewing; conduct automated calculations and checks based off predefined or custom installation configurations;
graphically analyze the results; and obtain various drawings, diagrams, and result reports.
Throughout
the remainder of the manual, more in-depth tutorial videos and descriptions of navigating the CYPEPLUMBING
Water Systems can be found.

Initial Setup and Starting a Project
This section of the manual is to show how to initially start a project and begin using CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems. Begin
by having CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems downloaded, a BIMserver.center account, and an accessible IFC file model.
The first step is to open CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems. Next, connect to BIMserver.center on the far right side and sign in
if needed by following the prompted steps. Once signed in, a new project can be created and an IFC file can be imported.
To continue working on a file, select “File Manager” under File. Otherwise, to start a new project, select “New…” under File,
choose where the file will be saved under Browse, and give the file a name and description if desired. After continuing, a
screen will appear regarding BIMserver.center. Here is where a new project within BIMser
ver.center can be created by
selecting “Create new project” or a project can be continued by clicking on “Select project”. After the desired project is
selected or created, the next screens that appear are import settings and installation code parameters by country that can
be adjusted as needed. Following the completion of these screens, the IFC file should appear in CYPEPLUMBING Water
Systems and editing can begin.
It is encouraged to view this tutorial video on initial setup and starting a project if there are still any questions or a visual
guide is needed.

CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems Interface
The CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems interface comprises of four main areas: The Design Area, Floor Plan Navigation,
Design and Installation Menu, and 3D BIM Model Viewer. Pictures of each of the main areas, outlined in red, are below. All
four sections are explai
ned in greater detail throughout the remainder of this manual.

Design Area
Figure 5 – Design Area
The Design Area of the interface is the central area (outlined in red above) in the CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems. This
section is the location for the design and editing of the model. The design of the water system installation is done in 2D
through this area of the interface. The other three interfaces of the Water Systems software are used to adjust and view
aspects of this area. The Design and Installation Menu is to make design changes and edits, the Floor Plan Navigation is to
adjust floor plans for the Design Area, and the 3D BIM Model Viewer is to view a mockup of the design.
When working in the Design Area, there are severa
l general navigation techniques. To select icons and other buttons within
this software, a left click is used. A left click is also used to select any items within the Design Area. A right click, however, is
used to exit a current task or to access the popup window if there are settings available for the icon in use. The scroll wheel
of the mouse moves the view in or out. Lastly, the center scroll wheel pans the Design Area´s window when pressed and the
mouse is moved simultaneously.
A brief tutorial video on basic navigation techniques within the Design Area can be viewed in the link below.

Floor Plan Navigation
Figure 6 – Floor Plan Navigation
The Floor Plan Navigation area of the interface is the middle left toolbar (outlined in red above) in the CYPEPLUMBING
Water Systems. This section serves as the location for information and navigation through floor plans, individual floor levels,
and
the related settings. In this area of the interface, it is possible to move between floors, rearrange the order of floor plans,
add or delete floor plans, duplicate floor plans, and lastly edit the floor plans such as the elevation and the height of
installation. The video link below provides a brief walkthrough on this section and how it pertains to the interface and the
model.

Design and Installation Menu
Figure 7 – Design and Installation Menu
The Design and Installation Menu is the top toolbar (outlined in red above) in the CYPEPLUMBING Water Systems. This
toolbar serves as the location for most of the necessary design tools, settings, and calculations. This menu is utilized in most
actions when designing and analyzing a water system installation.
The Design and Installation Menu is divided into multiple sections. These sections are: Project, Water Supply, Hot Water
Production,
Consumptions, Pipes, Label, Edit, Calculation, 3D View, BIM Model, and lastly there is an Auxiliary Toolbar.
Detailed descriptions and tutorial videos on each of these sections can be viewed below.
6.1
Project Section
The Project Section of the Design and Installation Menu is the location where most initial installation design options can be
configured. In the “General Settings” tab, a popup appears on screen that adjusts analysis and drawing options, material
and equipment selection, design and checks to be carried out, and installation codes by country. It is recommended to go
into the “General Settings” and go through each settings box to confirm the defined options are the desired options before
beginning the project. A tutorial video has been provided below which provides a more in-depth explanation of the Project
Section and the “General Settings” tab.
