Problem:
The following is displayed in model consistency check report:
W726-9: A Guide or Line Stop should not be inserted at following kink point(s)
Instead, insert a new run point near the kink to add the support.
Why and how to avoid the issue.
Solution:
As the warning message indicates, support(s) was found at a kink in the pipe run or a kink in the pipe was found at the exact location as a support. This can be checked by reviewing the model consistency report where both warning messages would have occurred at the same node point: (Example E09)
W726-8: Kink in straight run at following point(s):
E09 1.4 deg
W726-9: A Guide or Line Stop should not be inserted at following kink point(s)
Instead, insert a new run point near the kink to add the support.
E09
Typically there should be a straight run of pipe at supports locations.
Workaround:
1. Move the support to a straight run of pipe
2. Straighten the piping to avoid kinks.
