Support Detail Fig # and Allowable Support Load Ratings

Ensuring support info (gaps, friction, stiffness) is correct and reviewing support results are some of the more time consuming tasks. It would be very handy to be able to set up a library of support detail figure numbers with allowable load ratings.

Reference Loads - Results Database

Currently, AutoPIPE does not have the option to export reference loads to a .mdb file. I want to be able to easily compare the Reference Loads to their allowable. This is most handy when you have radial nozzles. Please include the allowable loads ...

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...

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...
