    Stress Isometrics - AutoPIPE

    Mentioned in AutoPIPE Help:

    A stress isometric is used by engineers as a visual record of the pipe stress analysis model and summary of the design information used to model a safe piping system. This process provides an electronic workflow and exchange of engineering information in a common recognizable file format between Plant 3D CAD (and/or Engineering disciplines) and CAE analysis in particular for the CAD designer, consultant, structural engineer or equipment manufacturer.

    The customizable Stress Isometric plot is created using the OpenPlant Isometrics Manager and shows a) fully dimensioned isometric plot b) tables of important summary design data including model information, pipe properties, valve and flange data, maximum stresses, design support data, design spring and constant hanger data, design load data for vessels, structures and equipment.

    The ability to generate stress isometric drawings is only available while using AutoPIPE Advanced and Nuclear editions. The input data and stress analysis results from AutoPIPE are exported in a APT file AutoPIPE reads the geometry data from APISO file and stress data from APT file. An inline file (.L00) file is generated from APISO and APT file which is directed to OPIM-IsoExtractor for generating isometrics. The generated DGN or DWG file can be opened automatically into either OpenPlant Isometrics Manager, MicroStation, Redline, AutoCAD or 3rd Party program for review and markup.

    DWG file formats is supported by AutoCAD and Microstation, DGN is a file format supported by Microstation, and all these types are recognized by a wide variety of other engineering and CAD software.

    First see AutoPIPE's help for detailed information on Stress Isometric features. Further information can be found here
