Implementing support verification (at least for legs and brackets) according to Eurocode 3 would greatly benefit projects designed to European standards and meet the increasing need for Eurocode compliance in structural design.

Currently, AutoPIPE Vessel uses a default air density of 1.225 kg/m³ for wind load calculations. However, air density can vary based on the geographic location of the equipment. Therefore, I request that this value be made an input parameter inste...

Implement FFS as per API 579. Parts of API 579 include: 1 – Introduction 2 – FFS Engineering Evaluation Procedure 3 – Brittle Fracture 4 – General Metal Loss 5 – Localized Metal Loss 6 – Pitting Corrosion 7 – Blisters, HIC, and SOHIC Damage ...

It would be great if I could make a calculation when I'm finished entering the values ​​for, for example, a shell, a nozzle, an end cap, etc. It would make the work considerably easier when I have nozzles with nozzle loads, then I get a quick over...

For this nozzles, the reinforcement is given by the head thickness but the nozzle neck calculation (cilinder under internal pressure) is missing, so the neck is not validated, only a message saying that the reinforcement is given by the head thick...

The TEMA 11th Edition was released in 2023, but it has not yet been integrated into AutoPIPE Vessel. I kindly request that this feature be added at the earliest opportunity.

Please could we add the latest additions of PD 5500 to the design standards. In South Africa, the competing design codes are ASME and PD due to the selection of materials that our legislation permits. As a result, ensuring that Bentley AutoPIPE Ve...

We have noticed that the software systematically considers all jackets as type 2 in the jacket closure calculation following PD 5500. We need you to integrate the concept of type 1 jackets in the next version to facilitate support for this type of...

A tall vessel or column is normally designed with a particular liquid level. It would be very helpful if a new user case can be defined allowing to calculate full of liquid (which is not water, it is not the same as hydrotest).

Need to add an option to consider "as formed" and "annealed" bellow This will impact on following parameters and user can choose as per their requirements, ASME Km & Kg factor ASME factor 2.3 or 0.75 for Sy* EJMA Cm factor
