About Pipes.

<p>This Architectural Drawing is about Pipes. Pipes come in several types and sizes. They can be divided into three main categories:&nbsp;<strong>metallic pipes, cement pipes and plastic pipes</strong>. Metallic pipes include steel pipes, galvanised iron pipes and cast iron pipes. Cement pipes include concrete cement pipes and asbestos cement pipes. A pipe is a tubular section or hollow cylinder, usually but not necessarily of circular cross-section, used mainly&nbsp;<strong>to convey substances which can flow &mdash; liquids and gases (fluids), slurries, powders and masses of small solids</strong>. There are&nbsp;<strong>five main types</strong>&nbsp;of plumbing pipe materials that are still in use today: copper, galvanized steel, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and cross-linked polyethylene (PEX). Chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) is also used. Parts of a pipe include the&nbsp;<strong>(1) bowl, (2) chamber, (3) draught hole, (4) shank, (5) mortise, (6) tenon, (7) stem, (8) bit (or mouthpiece), (9) lip, and (10) bore</strong>.
