AutoPIPE is a sophisticated analysis and design tool designed to compute pipe stress, loads, and deflections across diverse load scenarios. It boasts automation features and unparalleled compatibility with other software applications.




Model, Analyze, And Visualize Pipe Stress:
Improve efficiency through the utilization of object-oriented point-and-click interactive modeling, a streamlined approach that allows for precise control and swift execution. By seamlessly integrating with all major intelligent 3D CAD systems, AutoPIPE ensures consistent results while saving valuable time.
With its robust integration capabilities, AutoPIPE facilitates rapid setup, analysis, and visualization of results across diverse loading scenarios. From thermal and seismic loads to wind and dynamic (response spectra) load cases, users can efficiently evaluate structural performance with confidence. This comprehensive tool empowers engineers to optimize designs and enhance project outcomes with ease.
Check Structural Interoperability And Pipe Stress Clashes:
Enhance model accuracy and ensure a more realistic representation of real-life plants by incorporating support structural stiffness directly into the piping model. This integration allows for a more comprehensive analysis by capturing the interactions between the piping system and its supporting structures. By transferring support reaction loads to STAAD.Pro, engineers can accurately assess the structural response and optimize design decisions.
AutoPIPE enables thorough analysis under any static or dynamic loading condition applied to both piping and structures. Through rigorous evaluation, engineers can determine pipe stress, operational displacements, and clash check them against the entire plant model. This holistic approach ensures that critical factors such as stress concentrations, deflections, and potential clashes are identified and addressed early in the design process, leading to improved safety, efficiency, and reliability of the plant system.
Comply With Industry Code and Standards:
Ensure your projects comply with major American (ASME) and European (EN) metallic piping codes. The software includes API, NEMA, ANSI, ASCE, AISC, UBC, ISO, and WRC guidelines and design load limits. AutoPIPE offers easily accessible, built-in ASME B31J flexibility and stress intensification factor calculations with a simple checkbox.
