On screen Code Stress Pass/Fail Indicator

During the development of pipe design, one may need to iteratively. make small changes, and check the impact on stress, Forces, Restraint forces, etc. It would save a lot of time if there was an indicator on the default main UI that states the hig...

Modeling soils in AutoPIPE should be simplified

In my opinion modeling of soils in AutoPIPE takes to much time and could/should be simplified. For selected part of the model, including simultanously vertical, horizontal or inclined segments, there are four geometrical methods to define a terrai...

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...

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...

Add option to enter Specific Gravity of contents referenced to Air instead of Water

The Specific Gravity based on water is not applicable to flow services that are 100% gas. Specific gravity for liquid is weight of liquid with respect to water and specific gravity of gas is weight of gas with respect to air. These 2 fluids are to...

When modelling GRP piping to ISO 14692 be able to add metal pipe sections

Design to ISO 14692 does not allow metal pipe properties to be applied. When GRP piping joins to metal piping we want the model to include the stiffness and thermal expansion of the metal piping. No requirement to work out the code stress in the m...
