Add ability to insert support breakaway based on Friction load

Some manufacturer components define breakaway behavior based on applied load exceeding a specified friction force, rather than through a stiffness-based definition. After breakaway occurs, the component moves to a new position without any restorin...

Convert Global Analysis Results to Local Axis through Batch Generator

Converting the analysis results of a model that is in the global axis to the local axis from the batch generator can be very convenient and ideal for automation. If I wanted to run, say, a Python file that calls the batch generator to run analysis...

Add new support type for wall and roof penetrations

We typically model wall and roof penetrations as guides with clearance gaps of approximately 0.5 to 1.5 inches in all directions. These modeled clearances are then used to verify load transfer and confirm that the gaps are adequate at each penetra...

Rotate command should update Anchor translational and rotational stiffness components

When an Anchor support is rotated using the Rotate command in AutoPIPE, the translational and rotational stiffness components do not update to reflect the new orientation. This leads to stiffness being applied in the wrong directions relative to t...

Add design margins to piping loads being sent to structural

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 ...

Increase the total number of segments allowed in a model

After inserting segment ZZ, AutoPIPE will create blank segment names as showing in the attached. Suggest to increase the number of segments beyond A to ZZ segments. Workaround: Reorder the segments to capture previously deleted segments. However t...

Reuse segment names that have been deleted in creating new segments

Renumbering or reordering a model is not always an options for a variety of reasons. Add an option in AutoPIPE to automatically reuse or recycle previously used segment names when generating new segments. Example: If after adding segment AC, segme...
