Piping engineering encompasses the entire piping design from the very concept, the final design documents through to installation supervision.
The piping is designed based on  
-  the client´s building regulations and specifications;
 - German and international standards (DIN, ANSI, BS);
 - the technical rules and regulations
 
Depending on the requirements of the design documents or client´s needs different CAD tools and calculation programs are used for the piping design.
The piping design includes the following major aspects:
- Stocktaking (conventional or by laser scanning)
 - Pipe class definition, component specifications, specifications and special-purpose part design
 - Strength and stress analyses
 - Complete 3D piping models
 - Generation of piping plans and isometrics
 - Bills of material
 - Total lists of components
 - Installation descriptions for piping construction, insulation, painting, labelling, scaffolds
 - As-built and testing documentation.
