checkSTRESS

checkSTRESS is a unique solution to the old problem of project delays caused by "back and forth" piping layout iterations between the Design and Stress Engineering departments.

Reasons

Design It Right. The First Time

ONE OF A KIND

The only company to offer an easy solution to the problem of project delays caused by "back and forth" piping layout iterations between the Design and Stress Engineering departments.Platforms: PDMS, CADMATIC, PDS, SmartPlant, AutoCAD Plant 3D, and others.

SIMPLE

checkSTRESS makes it a breeze for Designers to use. It works as a standalone software for others. A short amount of time up front may save hours, perhaps even weeks -- later on. Even site rework can be avoided.

PREEMPTIVE

PREEMPTIVE

checkSTRESS enables Designers to anticipate and correct problems before the Stress Engineering department points them out in the next iterations. By reading piping models, checkSTRESS helps a designer produce code-compliant layouts.

SEAMLESS

SEAMLESS

checkSTRESS readily generates CAEPIPE, CAESAR II and PIPESTRESS input files for further detailed stress analysis.

PROFIT BUILDER

PROFIT BUILDER

checkSTRESS dramatically reduces project execution time and the total elapsed time, protecting your bottom line from losses due to inefficiency.

What is checkSTRESS?

checkSTRESS is a unique solution to the old problem of project delays caused by "back and forth" piping layout iterations between the Design and Stress Engineering departments.

Simple and elegant, checkSTRESS' graphically intuitive interface helps the designer produce code-compliant piping layouts in the first iteration, dramatically reducing the project execution and the total elapsed time.

checkSTRESS products!

Under the checkSTRESS brand name, three products (for PDMS/E3D, CADMATIC, SmartPlant, AutoCAD Plant 3D, CATIA, and others) are available namely

  • checkSTRESS (which generates input file for CAEPIPE)
  • checkSTRESS II (which generates input files for both CAEPIPE and CAESAR II)
  • checkSTRESS Nuke (which generates input files for both CAEPIPE and PIPESTRESS)

Note: checkSTRESS is included in CAEPIPE 3D+

Does It Make Business Sense?

Consider five designers working on a piping layout with one stress engineer validating their layouts. The engineer becomes the bottleneck; s/he simply cannot sign off on all the stress projects in a timely manner, what with having to do a "back-and-forth" design review with the five designers to first arrive at an acceptable layout before delving into the analysis details. The engineer spends most of his/her time working with the designers to first arrive at an acceptable layout, ONLY after which s/he will be able to attempt to get into the detailed analysis work.

RESULT: Less reliable piping systems due to hastily done analyses. Might lead to either a failure in the field or expensive redesigns and/or rework at site.

FINAL OUTCOME: Inevitable project delay.

With checkSTRESS, you get reliable systems without project delays. It makes perfect business sense.

CAEPIPE 3D+ works seamlessly with our integrated PID/3D modeling system. CAEPIPE 3D+ allows our designers to interactively assess the piping configuration as they construct the 3D model of the system. This greatly speeds up the design process.

The user manuals provided are very in-depth and comprehensive. There isn’t any situation I’ve encountered in my pipe stress analysis projects which has not been covered or addressed in the user’s manual.

I have performed stress analysis using a variety of programs for over 40 years. CAEPIPE is the best stress program available and strongly urge any company to purchase it. The support team is quick to respond when needed but rarely needed.
