Add an option to override the selected bolt area. This can be helpful when non standard neck-down bolt is used.

When API650 is not suitable for a vertical tank, calculation should be done with API620

Greece is a country with high seismic behaviour. Many industrial projects are on going in Greece, it would be beneficial to add Greek seismic code.

Nozzles design: Please provide an opction that considers the alternative calculation method when there is an insert forged pad

Nowadays, for corrosion in the saddle bolts be considered, you have to mark "corroded weight" (see https://communities.bentley.com/products/pipe_stress_analysis/w/pipe_stress_analysis__wiki/69792/26-why-corrosion-allowance-is-not-taking-in-conside...

It should be possible to impose a weld bead dimension in the "brackets and lifting accessories" masks. This value is set at 0.7 x the minimum thickness of the shell or wear plate. In the case of large thicknesses, this results in an unfeasible wel...

The allowable pressure of flanges as per EN1092-1 can be defined by formulas or by table. In the past AutoPipeVessel was giving the table allowable pressure. In the new version, it's the calculation with the allowable stress of the material. It wo...

On many occasions, we find horizontal vessels that can be suspended from the ceiling. saddles should be able to be placed on the top of the equipment and should be calculated in traction and not compression.

For projects in Spain, engineering companies request the Spanish wind code CTE DB-SE-AE. The Spanish wind code that is implemented in autopipe vessel is old.
