What do our users say about AutoPIPE
Shaw Group - Stone & Webster , LLC - Frank P. Giammanco, Senior Engineer
"I have evaluated and used numerous Pipe Stress Analysis (PSA) programs over my 30+ year career in Mechanical Engineering and have found that AutoPIPE has grown with the industry to become one of the premier PSA software programs available I believe that AutoPIPE is the most efficient and user friendly PSA tool available."
Parsons Energy - Jim Wooten, Stress Manager
“I could not go back to Caesar after using AutoPIPE!”
Bergen Power - Jack Fenny, P.E., Senior Engineer
"AutoPIPE makes modeling complex piping configurations fast and efficient with its easy to follow graphic representations during data input, and offers the ease of adding similar pipe layouts with simple copy and paste functions. Exporting the piping system to AutoCAD will allow the analyst to annotate the drawing and generate large detailed plots."
Burns & McDonnell - Navdeep Singh, Stress Engineer
"The 2004 version of AutoPIPE is a big step forward from the v6.3 which is a very capable program in itself. The graphics in the new version are the biggest improvement and make for better visualization of the models. "Other new features such as the results grid are a welcome and very user friendly addition. AutoPIPE has always been a very user friendly program, but the 2004 version gives new meaning to user friendliness."
Alstom Power - Peter Wu, Alstom Heat Recovery & Plants, Mechanical Engineering Department
"As an experienced user of several piping analysis programs (Autopipe, CAESAR II, PipePlus), I prefer Autopipe. I believe Autopipe has not only drastically reduced pipe modeling time but it also provides much easier and more efficient ways when conducting piping analysis, especially when sharing piping models between different companies."
Automated Engineering Services - Thomas N. Vogel, PE, Vice President AES
"AutoPipe has proved to be an excellent piping analysis tool for Automated Engineering Services. The superb graphics, user interface, and variety of analysis tools has allowed AES to evaluate numerous complex piping analysis problems. In addition, Bentley has been very proactive in providing support for their product."
SNC Lavalin - Ray Mills, P.Eng., Senior Consultant
"AutoPIPE is well supported and technical assistance is always available. This is particularly important in the oil and gas business. The developers of AutoPIPE appear interested in extending the capability of AutoPIPE and considering new problems, approaches, and solutions. That in itself provides encouragement for those of us in remote locations. “The AutoPIPE approach to marine soils worked really well for the design of a fairly complex hot tap connection."
Air Products - Alan Lucas, Stress Manager
“What I like best about AutoPIPE is the graphical interface that allows me to build, edit, and manage a model easily. I always know where I am in the piping system, and I can find specific points easily. I can make modifications quickly and, thus, find solutions in problem areas productively. It is easy to select points or areas for reports when I need to see what's happening in a small part of the model. Compared to other stress analysis programs, I find that AutoPIPE helps me to be more productive in getting my task done.”
Bibb & Associates - Peter Jeong, Senior Engineer
"Autopipe is very user friendly. The graphics, even in the earlier versions, were much superior to that of Caesar. What I like most about Autopipe is the program's technical staff support. If concerns arise, direct one-on-one support is readily available. Once you use Autopipe, you really don't want to use any other pipe stress analysis program."
