Piping Code CODETI(2006) is updated to CODETI (2013). Refer Piping Code Compliance from CAEPIPE Code Compliance Manual for more details.

New ASME Section III, NC - Class 2 (2015) piping code is added. Refer Piping Code Compliance from CAEPIPE Code Compliance Manual for details.

New feature added to define Specified Rotations in Local Coordinate System (LCS) for Anchor.

New feature added to include Linear Thermal Expansion for Bellows. The Support loads and/or Displacements produced using earlier versions of CAEPIPE for models with bellows may differ when they are analyzed using CAEPIPE V7.80.

New feature added to check Branch Points not defined with Brach SIF. This can be performed through Layout window > Misc > Check Branch SIF.

New feature added to check and issue warning message when Compressor Shaft Axis is not in horizontal plane.

Soil restraints results now include "Soil Name" and "Soil Type".

New feature added to highlight Beam Section, Beam Load and Beam Material.

New feature added to plot color coded rendered 3D Graphics based on Specific Gravity defined. This feature helps in identifying different services used in different portions of a piping system. This can be performed by selecting the option "Color Graphics using Sp. Gr" by mouse right click on "List Loads" window while being in Color Graphics plot.

New feature added to increase or decrease font size using "Ctrl + Up" and "Ctrl + Down".

New feature added to issue warning message when Insulation Density is defined without defining the Insulation Thickness or vice versa.

New feature added to issue warning message when Lining Density is defined without defining Lining Thickness or vice versa.

New feature added to remember unit settings of Wind 1 for defining Wind 2, Wind 3 and Wind 4.

AISC Beam Library is now updated to include "J" and other missing properties. In addition, "Torsional Inertia" is changed to "Torsional Constant" in line with AISC Standard.

CAEPIPE User's Manual, Technical Reference Manual, Code Compliance Manual and Verification Manual have been enhanced and updated to be in line with software version 7.80. These Manuals can be downloaded from here.

Bug correction: Stress values shown in legend of Color Coded Graphics were overlapping.

Bug correction: B1 Index for Miter Bend was not calculated properly for all earlier versions (1986, 1990 and 1992) of ASME Class 2 codes. This bug exists in all versions of CAEPIPE up to V7.70.

Bug correction: For Anchors defined using Global Stiffnesses and Local Displacements, the Support loads were not calculated properly. This bug exists in CAEPIPE Versions 6.70 through 7.70.

Bug correction: Specified Displacements for T3 through T10 were not printed in TXT and CSV file output. In addition, Specified Displacements for Seismic and Settlement cases were not printed properly in TXT and CSV file output.
