a few hours ago regarding the CSI category for inline drip tube for shrubs. Haven't seen it upload. Hoping it does. Meanwhile, I have an Air Release Valve detail that I want to upload in my detail library. Should there be a different section or will it go into Air Relief Valve subsection - as they a similar, yet different.

Hi Asif,
Unfortunately your screenshot failed to upload in your forum post so I'm not 100% sure on the context.

From my limited irrigation knowledge, I was pretty sure Air Release Valve, Air Relief Valve, and Vacuum Release were all the same thing. Very interesting! I'm going to need to talk to our irrigation specialist, Jake, some more to work out the best solution here or see if we need more clarification. In the meantime, can you please try attaching the screenshot here again? I talked to our forum creator and it sounds like an internet blip might have corrupted it. Or you can send it in a ticket.

Hi Asif,

I spoke with Jake, and he agrees that all of those are similar enough that they could live in the same CSI folder.

However, if there's a reason you think they're different enough to need separate folders, let me know what you proposed and maybe some links to products that show why.

The reason I am going all through is that the when we forward these details to the our client. They will be using these not only for writing their specifications but for WBS (Work breakdown Structures) and costing. My lack of the intricacies of the CSI system shows through here. As I might get away with placing to similar details in one section but the way it will be used for the WBS and costing can be pretty different.
I hope you seen my point. And again my lack knowledge and experience holds me back from assigning divisions/CSI folders to details I don't know how they are going to be used by others.
I don't mind sharing the details each time and getting your input but am afraid you'll find it tedious in the long run.

It will not be tedious, and usually helps to improve our customization for everybody. I can push out improvements through the Landscape Architecture Library in Detail preferences.

Feel free to send them in a ticket - let me know where you think they should go and I'll agree or suggest something better.
