Parameters

document  Document
The document.
systemTypeId  ElementId
The ElementId of the piping system type.
pipeTypeId  ElementId
The ElementId of the pipe type.
levelId  ElementId
The level ElementId for the pipe.
startPoint  XYZ
The start point of the pipe.
endPoint  XYZ
The end point of the pipe.

Return Value

Pipe
The pipe.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentException The systemTypeId is not valid piping system type. -or- The pipe type pipeTypeId is not valid pipe type. -or- The ElementId levelId is not a Level. -or- The points of startPoint and endPoint are too close: for MEPCurve, the minimum length is 1/10 inch.
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
