In the Properties window, click the ellipsis (.) in the Material field.To Select a Material for a Pipe From the Standard Material Library: When a material is selected, these properties are automatically assigned to the pipe.
Each material type is associated with various pipe properties, such as roughness coefficient and roughness height. Pipes can be assigned a material type chosen from an engineering library. To Apply a Previously Created Zone to a Pipe: For more information on zones and their use, see the Zones topic. A Zone can contain any number of elements and can include a combination of any or all element types. You can group elements together by any desired criteria through the use of zones.
