Importing Inventor model in Ansys

(OP)
Hi everyone, i'm a very beginner Ansys user and i need help.
 I have an Inventor assembly model of a pipe structure on which are some plate parts to. On this machine i have to make a global, structural analysis in Ansys and then a detailed one in Ansys Workbench.
 
The question is, if i can import the model in Ansys in such a way that the centerlines of the pipes to became the frame in Ansys, or i have to redraw the model in it?
 And what element should i use for the pipes from the model? I thouht to use SHELL93.
 Thank You for your time!
