AutoPIPE deals with a valve actuator as a rigid beam. The default size for the rigid beam is set as a 10x10 W shape, and any support connected to the actuator is scaled according to that number (see attached image) Request actuator and any support...

This functionality would be very advantageous for post-processing results. I currently have scripts to convert dgn to dwg (and adjust according to my delivery standard) in addition to accessing the .db to generate an organized excel with the relev...

Snow loads should be considered in the GR load case during analysis and design for static seismic loads, to account for the contribution of snow mass to horizontal seismic inertia forces.

Suggest, the following: List all filters in header section of the Results Grids (see attached screen shot). Retain filter settings to be reused when the Results Grids command is used again. Easy means of removing one or all current filter se...

Can AutoPIPE provide a programmatic interface (via Python, VBA, or any other API) to automatically capture graphical snapshots or view-specific images from the model environment? This would greatly enhance reporting and documentation workflows, es...

When it comes to exporting pipe support loads from AutoPIPE to STAAD, PipeLINK is an effective tool. While PipeLINK has most of the necessary functionality, there is a lack in the ability to add a Design Margin to the pipe support loads sent from ...

Adding an option to export the Maximum Code Stresses Color Graphics in .DGN format. The user can utilize this feature to present the code stresses in a more visual way in Navisworks.

For V-stops and Hanger support types, the Support report prints global values as local values. Example, see attached image. Notice the Global axis direction is different from the indicated pipe's local axis direction. Next notice the support's Loc...

Currently, when structural members/beams are connected to high temp piping, AutoPIPE does not consider the axial expansion effect of the structural members in its analysis. Since AutoPIPE, is capable of evaluating temperature effect of piping, it ...

Currently, the EN1591 flange analysis only includes PN flange dimensions. Theoretically, you could manually input all the dimensions for an ASME flange but that would be extremely tedious to do every time. There is some ambiguity/"looseness" with ...
