AutoPIPE's rigorous quality assurance program has passed numerous independent on-site audits to 10CFR50 App. B, ASME NQA-1, and ANSI N45.2 standards, making AutoPIPE one of the few PC-based pipe stress programs approved for use in nuclear safety applications.
Bentley has formally written and approved test plans for verification of every modification and new feature to AutoPIPE, as well as integration testing for features implemented in previous versions with records of validation spanning more than six years. All users with current Bentley SELECT agreements receive formal error reports that classify errors based on severity, an explanation of the implications of each error, and known workarounds.
Nuclear plant engineering users can purchase the AutoPIPE QA & reporting services to help meet safety-related QA requirements.
