    01. Where are the design factors referenced in AutoPIPE help coming from in ASME B31.4 Chapter IX (Offshore) code?

    Applies To
    Product(s): AutoPIPE
    Version(s): ALL;
    Area:
    Date Logged
    & Current Version
    Sept. 2017
    11.01.00.17

    Problem:

    Design factors according to the code are:

    AutoPIPE help has the design factors set to:

    Why are they different?

    Solution:

    The user is able to select 2 different codes from the General model options dialog:  ASME B31.4 Liq. Trans or ASME B31.4 OFFshore.

    Table 403.3.1-1 shown above is for ASME B31.4 Liq. Trans piping, while AutoPIPE's help table shown above is for chapter IX (offshore piping) referenced by table A402.3.5-1 

    These are the exact values as referenced in AutoPIPE's help. AutoPIPE will use the correct allowable values for the selected piping code.
