Release for hanger selection
Sean Pellerin
What is the impact for the pipe installer "release for hanger selection" is checked? To elaborate: It is my understanding when sizing springs with the "release for hanger selection" checked, AutoPIPE treats the anchor as being free (in the selected…

Modelling a vibration clamp
Shashank Shekar
Hello, I am trying to model an anti vibration clamp in AutoPIPE. Could I please be provided with a guideline document to model a clamp of this sort? Essentially, a breakaway force has been calculated, and it is understood that the pipe would be free…

Gap Support Modeling Approach
Tyler Temme
I am trying to convert a previous model from ADL Pipe to AutoPIPE. The previous model has two gap supports. It appears that ADL Pipe was able to analyze the model (Non-Linearly?) with the thermal case ONLY. When this scenario is transferred to AutoPIPE…

WEBERSOLO
How do I model a vertical support on an horizontal line? My major challenge is modeling the horizontal line from the pipe to C01 and then place the vertical support as you can see in the attached image file. This is to mimic the support in the pipe support…

Critical Load Buckling for Lower Rigidity Material Piping (e.g. PVC, CPVC)
Daniel Bittinat
Good afternoon, Is there any plan/development for critical load buckling for piping with relatively low rigidity such as PVC, CPVC, etc.? In cases with large lengths and non-trivial thermal growths, there is a reasonable concern that this piping could…

Is there any specific code to follow for snow load?
Rasel Sultan
Hi, I am curious about snow load applied on pipes? I understand from the help desk how snow load is calculated from given density of snow and its height (if I choose density medium). My question is: Is there any specific codes or books or reference…

Bend forces in Autopipe
Saurav Challani
Dear All, I am a University student, working with Autopipe for one of our project. I was asked one question during the project review that how does Autopipe calculates the bend forces (as we do not define the velocity or flow in the pipeline) ?? …

Thrust/Anchor Block
SAURABH JAIN
Dear, Can anyone suggest how a Thrust block is modeled in Autopipe?? I have approached for the same like as in CAESAR II i.e. changing property of the soil near anchor/thrust blocks but what is the correct method to model a thrust block in AutoPipe…
