A class for making P&ID's

Post by turbomac »

Hello everyone!

My question is very simple. Does anybody know a document class for making Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (or P&ID'S)? Unfortunately, the only two things that can make these diagrams are Visio (Microsoft) and AutoCAD.

That's all.

Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

That is certainly not a task for a document class. Try your luck with common graphics packages like pgf/tikZ or pstricks.

Hi,

I also wanted to create P&ID using LaTeX, but to my knowledge there aren't any packages available. I created my own TikZ library for that reason. Feel free to use it. It is based on the TikZ circuit package and use the ISO 14617 norms for symbol shapes.
