ASME released ASME NM.1 for thermoplastic piping systems. It is handy for stress analysis of plastic pipes (PVC, CPVC, HDPE. PE, ...) compared to ASME B31.3. It will be beneficial if Autopipe includes this code as an option for analysis.

The code allows you to reduce the SSIs based on more applicable data. Currently, AutoPIPE only lets you use SSI = 0.75SIF or SSI=1. ASME B31J allows you to reduce the SSI based on the following: Where sustained stress or moment factors are require...

Currently AutoPIPE analyzes analysis sets one at a time. Between each analysis set the application writes the results of the analysis from the cache temp folder to the model folder. Models containing multiple analysis can take an extended period o...

Whilst using AutoPIPE Nuclear to assess pipework to ASME III, the models included different regions of pipework that were required to be assessed to ASME III Class 1 and Class 2 respectively. As it is not possible to assess to two different piping...

On the configuration dialog, the user is given the option to select a number of different editions of AutoPIPE: Standard, Advanced, Nuclear. Suggest to grey out options that are not available to the account. Example: Account only has AutoPIPE Stan...

Add manufacturer library to select for SIF's to populate to meet B31.J as per B31.3 2020

Nous avons très régulièrement des demandes client pour calculer des appareils suivant différents codes, avec des tubulures carrées et/ou rectangulaires. Est'il possible d'intégrer ce genre de tubulures dans autopipe vessel?

Looking for an update to flex coupling input box to better model flexible coupling behavior. Flexible joint additional inputs (see attached) 1) Max angle of deflection for flex joint 2) Two stiffness inputs for bending stiffness. Stiffness changes...

Each time I need to update or search to see if there is an update, I spend too much time trying to figure out how to wade through all the various avenues Bentley has to find the most recent version of AutoPIPE, and if I'm behind, then download the...

Kindly refer to the discussion in regard to the case no. CS0345238, regarding introducing autosave option after every 1 min or less. Similar feature is available in other stress analysis software can't same be availed in Auto PIPE as well, because...
