Why is that and how to Avoid it?

Solution:

Please see the following AutoPIPE help section:

This warning was added in AutoPIPE 9.0.0.8 under the following enhancement TFS-E130802: Add "Pulled" option to bend type. The application would still use the User specified SIF values at the bend's Near and Far node points when calculating stresses.

Modeling Approach:

See WIKI here.

Remove User SIF from all bend Near and Far node points when bend is set to Pulled.
