    Support Optimization - AutoPIPE Technology Preview

    Overview:

    Added Support Optimization (Enhancement 74973) to determine optimal support locations and options based on criteria such as supporting structure loads, allowable displacements, and support costs. 

    Limitations

    • If using AutoPIPE 12.01.xx and lower, access to this feature will require a special file provided by Bentley. Users requesting access will be expected to thoroughly evaluate and then provide feedback, good or bad, for further refinement of the feature before release in the program. If you are willing to test and provide feedback, then please create a Service Request for access to Support Optimizer (be sure to include Technology Preview - SO Startup" in the SR's Description field).
      . 

    • Note:
      • With the release of AutoPIPE 12.02.00.14, people no longer need to log a Service Request to enable this feature. it is now open and ready for use by everyone.
      • This Technology Preview feature has an expiration date of 02/29/2020, after which the feature will become a full command in AutoPIPE and no longer considered as a Technology Preview. Please update to the most recent version of the program in order to continue using this feature.  
      • This feature is not available in the Demo mode, but is included as a feature with AutoPIPE Advance and Nuclear.
