Problem:

The following is displayed when using AutoPIPE

W726-10:  User SIF required at junction  at following point(s)...

A02

Why and How to avoid it?

Solution:

As stated by the message, AutoPIPE Code calculations does not cover an SIF calculation for a junction at the indicated points (ex. A02). Suggest to calculate the SIF value outside of AutoPIPE or ask the component manufacture for an SIF value. Enter the User SIF as Joint End type  = User Defined and enter the calculated SIF values. Consider using "Override all..." check box option, see AutoPIPE help for details on this feature.
