On many occasions, we find horizontal vessels that can be suspended from the ceiling. saddles should be able to be placed on the top of the equipment and should be calculated in traction and not compression.

For projects in Spain, engineering companies request the Spanish wind code CTE DB-SE-AE. The Spanish wind code that is implemented in autopipe vessel is old.

There is often need to calculate two conservative thermal combinations (lowest possible assembly temperature with highest working temperature and highest assembly temperature with lowest working temperature). Now it is needed to prepare two models...

Currently, the interface between Autopipe and Openplant is disconnected. Users have to manually export piping models to Autopipe, and perform analysis. If changes need to happen in one model, the other model isnt't updated dynamically. Further, th...

In the load combination options, users can custom define loads. The combination ordering is specific to the entries - the rows at the bottom can use previous combinations above, but not v/v. AutoPIPE generates an error if a load case tries to refe...

By default, when you insert a WN or Lap Joint flange in Autopipe, it does not account for SIF at the BW joint. User has to enter an additional node point at a flange length and define a Joint Type with a defined offset. This could be automated.

Hi - is there a way to include consecutive elbows or bends in AutoPIPE? We have a model with back to back elbows and the model does not render the geometry well. Second, it appears that the Elbow forum is missing previous pages. Is Bentley still w...

Nozzles design: Please provide an opction that considers the alternative calculation method when there is an insert forged pad

Generating drawings by DOS command or batch file can save the time to open .emvd files and many clicks in UI if I have multiple files to process. AutoPIPE Vessel data (.emvd) have been completed. For example, 10 .emvd files have been completed. Sp...
