I still label them as up or down and then give centerline elevation of the pipe on either side of the elbow to make it obvious which way the elbow is going for those who are directionally challenged.

Forum, It's Friday so forgive this question, what general rule of thumb do you use to label elbows on your shop drawings as either UP or Down? What I like to do most of the time is follow the flow of water from the main and let that dictate whether to Label an elevation change as either up or down. Sometimes though say on a secondary main that really has no flow direction what do you do there? Left to right......?
