Design of Base Plates for Legs as per Pressure Vessel Design - Denis Moss - Procedure 4-12
The current approximation of considering the loads at the legs-shell junction is no longer justified since the implementation of the detailed calculation of the legs. But a new method to check the base plate of legs must be implemented (See: Denis...
Lors de calcul de double enveloppe, nous avons constaté qu'AUTOPIPE VESSEL n'intégre pas la partie C12 du CODAP. C'est un manque important dès qu'il y a double enveloppe. Nous supposons également que si ce manque est existant au niveau du CODAP il...
Use of EN 1991 code with British National Annex (BS EN 1991) in Wind Code Selection
When selecting the wind code in Autopipe Vessel v45.00.02.004, it is not possible to select the EN 1991 code with British National Annex (BS EN 1991), but there is only an option to select the EN 1991 code.
The British national annex provides ...
Implement FFS as per API 579. Parts of API 579 include: 1 – Introduction
2 – FFS Engineering Evaluation Procedure
3 – Brittle Fracture
4 – General Metal Loss
5 – Localized Metal Loss
6 – Pitting Corrosion
7 – Blisters, HIC, and SOHIC Damage

Please add EN 14015 code for design of storage tank. EN 14015 is the European standard for the design and manufacture of vertical, cylindrical, above-ground, welded steel tanks with flat bottoms.
I think several autopipe vessel users have encountered this problem:
the RTF file takes a long time to open
the RTF file is heavy to load
to launch a calculation it is necessary to close the RTF file (in this case me I want to look at the rep...
Currently only full penetration welded nozzle can be designed, this feature will enable users to design and perform nozzle opening reinforcement calculations for partial penetration nozzle weld.
Body Flange Thickness (g0) Vs Shell thickness - Vs Allowable values
When we have a bogy flanged implemented in a cylindrical shell we need to define a thickness for shell and a thickness for flange (g0). Normally the both thickness are the same and the software only take into account the shell value for internal p...
