Add saddles for transport on vertical vessels. Calculation should be similar to horizontal vessel on saddles, but with transportation loads. This will eliminate need for an additional model for transport. Transport will be part of report and will ...

In the case of horizontal vessels, it must be possible to lock both sadles in order to carry out a correct calculation under transport conditions (taking into account longitudinal acceleration on both sadles).

We have noticed that the software systematically considers all jackets as type 2 in the jacket closure calculation following ASME VIII -Appendixe 9

While designing heat exchanger as per EN 13445-3, AutoPIPE Vessel is considering elastic modulus at mean metal temperature but elastic modulus values should be taken at design design temperature. Refer attached snap.

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

They appear in the list of components, the 2D and 3D view. Local loads for them can be checked in Design Component. Their welds appear in the weld map.

Possibility to add a Bolted Domed end according EN 13445.3 clause 12

Just as you can include flanges (EN-DIN-ASME) in the connections, include CLAMP connections (ASME BPE - DIN32676) that are very common in the pharmaceutical industry.

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.
