Summary: Revit MEP needs an actual "bend" that would report as additional pipe, tubing, or conduit length and not report as a fitting.
Description: Revit MEP needs an actual "bend" that would report as additional pipe, tubing, or conduit length and not report as a fitting. If full BIM functionality is desired the "bend" should be able to carry a labor factor/cost and it should have its bend radius tied to size and tubing type.
In the semiconductor facility world we have hundreds of miles of conduit and tubing and they are all critical systems for us (small but very expensive). A much more robust set of design and routing tools for these items would have a large positive impact on us and any similar industry that wants to move to BIM and into PLM.
