    Extract system Response Spectra at decoupled connection points

    The capability of producing FRS at some points is sometimes needed to analyze small bore branches. Generally, the small bore branches could be decoupled from the headers for seismic analysis, but these lines shall be evaluated separately using the...

    ASME Flange Summary to show both Operating and Seating in separate columns

    Currently the results summary will show the worst case for the flange. ASME B16.5 flanges combined with spiral wound gaskets will commonly fail the seating condition check with the ASME division 1 checks. This can be ignored provided the operating...

    Output Modal Solution/mass participation

    AutoPIPE error 1304731 indicates that there are improper combinations of the modal solutions for seismic anchor motions and seismic response spectra. The "fix" to the error report is a warning to the end-user; however, there is no work around. Oth...

    Hydrotest Pressure Extension

    Users can decide whether pressure extension should be considered in static analysis sets, but this is not an option for hydrotest cases. The user is required to consider it with no option to unselect "Pressure Extension" in the "Analysis Sets" int...

    Include UID number in "Result" mdb output.

    In our work process we create PCF file using S3D. After analyzing data inside Autopipe we would like to export some of the analyzed data from Autopipe and import back to S3D. Easiest way to achieve that would be by using UID number of the analyzed...

    100-40-40 spatial combination option

    In Response Spectra Analysis, the spatial combination is always SRSS. The NRG 1.92 rev. 2 accepts as an alternative the use of the 100-40-40 method, as proposed by Newmark, to spatially combine the components. An option to select between SRSS or 1...

    Flexible elements displacement results in element local axes

    having flexible elements displacements results reported in local element axes, provides a better way to quantify relative end displacements and avoids doing global to local axes transformation out of the software. Amount of end and intermediate di...

    Use AutoPIPE valve weights when importing PCF files

    When importing files (such as PCF's) please provide the option to use AutoPIPE valve weights rather than using the weights from the original design tool that created the PCF file. Essentially having the option to automatically enable the "valve wr...

    CMB Files keep dropping off after importing

    The load combinations keep having to be updated by re-importing the CMB file constantly when doing the analysis. Making the imported CMB files more stable to where the user do not have to keep re-importing them so often would be a good idea to imp...
