Create a posting that includes:

• The screenshot of an interior view of your merged model from the Model Coordination tools showing the plumbing elements.

• A few lines describing any challenges you encountered and how you overcame them.

When I used the mirror tool to copy the main riser pipe and branch pipes to the mechanical space behind the north restroom walls, I realized the lavatories were on the opposite end of the toilets on the North side. Thus, I had to extend the hot water pipes to reach the sinks. This caused a little trouble with the automatic connect tool, so I had to fiddle with the connections by hand. When I copied the fixtures to the second level, the pipes ran out of the ceiling in the merged model. I had to then go back into the plumbing model and lower them. Lastly, in order to account for wheelchair accessibility, I had made the connections to the sanitary pipe for the lavatories in order to leave space.
