cross pipes as little as posible; place all valves, motors, reductions need to be placed where there are in reality.
Meaning if a valve is prior to 2 pipes meeting than it needs to be shown as that in the diagram/design.
Keep drawing as much as posible uncluttered : Meaning leave extra bents out unless you are showing a natural reduction.

Drawing it in 3 D you need also keep in mind to place your valves ect. in the right hight and make sure that your drawing is as much as posible as it is in reality from the start.
You may want to convert this later into a virtual walk though. (Microstation & CATIA have this feature)
