Identifying pipes with improper slope is crucial in sanitary sewerage design, as 0-slope pipes can cause drainage failures and maintenance issues. Manually checking every pipe is time-consuming and prone to error.

With BIMLOGIQ Copilot’s AI, this process is automated. In this example, the user entered the following prompts:

Prompt 1:
In this project, identify all vertical pipes (where vertical means having the same X and Y coordinates but different Z coordinates) and keep their projection line color unchanged. Then, locate all horizontal pipes with the System Type set to 'Sanitary' and a slope of 0, and change only their projection line color to red in the 3D view.

Prompt 2:
Save as a command and set color as a variable.

The AI scans the model, detects pipes with a slope of 0, and highlights them in red directly in the 3D view. This allows users to quickly identify and address potential design issues without manual checking. The command can also be saved and reused in future projects with adjustable parameters.
