Pipe network tables
Last updated: 2026-01-06
Culverts
Culvert pipe quantity tables can be produced using the custom WisDOT Culvert and Storm Drain report. The tool combines QTO functionality with Pipe Network data. It is intended to be used with pipe networks created with WisDOT custom parts. Other parts may not produce the same result.
- Open Pipe-Culvert.dwg.
- If not already done, review each of the metal culvert pipes.
- Select pipe > Contextual ribbon > Modify panel > Pipe Properties > Rules tab to see how much cover the pipe has.
- Use FDM 13-1 Attachment 25 to determine the appropriate wall thickness for the culvert pipe.
- Select pipe > Contextual ribbon > Modify panel > Pipe Properties > Part Properties tab > Part Data > Wall Thickness to set the wall thickness.
- WisDOT Tools tab > WisDOT Reports > Culvert and Storm Drain Report to run the custom report.
- Select the pipe network(s) to be included in the report or Select All to include all pipe networks in the file.
- Culvert Summary: checked
- Pay Item List: C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\C3D 2018\enu\Data\Pay Item Data\United States\WisDOT\Items_20XX.csv
- Output Filename: (Project ID)\Design\PipeNetworks\xxx_Pipe Report.xlsx
- Create Report
- The report creates an Excel spreadsheet.
- The LOCATION column populates the alignment name that the pipe references. Location can quickly be changed using the Find/Replace functionality in Excel. For example: Find: 25 and Replace with: STH 25
- If the culvert pipe lands completely on one side of the alignment and LT/RT designator will automatically be placed along with the station.
- The wall thickness that was chosen in Civil 3D will show up on the right side of the table. These columns can be deleted if only concrete pipe is required.
- For the "Culvert Pipe" bid items, both the Aluminum Thickness and Steel Thickness columns will need to be filled in.
- Fill in the number of joint ties required for concrete pipe. This column can be deleted if only metal pipe is required.
