With Bentley’s acquisition of Research Engineers in late 2005, Bentley now owns arguably the two most recognized pipe stress
applications in the industry – AutoPIPE and ADLPipe. Uniting the nuclear capabilities of ADLPipe with AutoPIPE’s superior modeling
environment and exhaustive QA program, Bentley will now be offering the most complete and reliable pipe stress solution addressing the oil, gas,
petrochemical, offshore and nuclear markets.
AutoPIPE is the choice of Fluor #1 EPC in the
world and more than 90% of the all Japanese engineering
companies. AutoPIPE available since 1986 in 55
countries, with 29 international piping codes, 21 spring
manufacturers and full-featured set of static, dynamic
and special analysis features makes AutoPIPE a leader
in small to high-end pipe stress analysis projects.
ADLPipe, the first commercially available pipe
stress program in 1967 and preferred comprehensive nuclear
solution worldwide. Backed by a successful track record
of NRC Quality Assurance Audits.
New nuclear product AutoPIPE
Nuclear Powered by ADLPipe to be available in
Q3/2007, will combine the productive graphical 'CAD
like' interface of AutoPIPE for modeling and graphical
review of results with the comprehensive nuclear analysis
capability of ADLPipe.

STAAD
Integration
REI and Bentley's has a global presence in the plant market with industry recognized products
like STAAD.Pro, AutoPLANT and PLANTSPACE, our goal is to continue to improve the current design
workflow by integrating our structural analysis and pipe stress programs. The integration will
enable your engineering teams to have a better understanding of the combined structure and its
interaction as well as decrease the time it takes for changes to go from one group to another.

Combined Structure + Piping Stiffness
No longer under or over-estimate pipe support loads. Non-linear
structural and piping interaction for realistic support
and structure loadings.

Quality Assurance
The highest software quality with internationally certified Nuclear Quality Assurance to
ASME NQA-1, ISO 9001, ASME N45.2 & 10CFR50 app B standards. ANSYS and AutoPIPE are the two
quality approved analysis software programs by NUPIC for USA Nuclear Plant Utilities.

"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.
Compared to other stress analysis programs, I find that
AutoPIPE helps me to be more productive in getting my
task done."
Alan Lucas
Piping Stress Manager
Air Products
"I also want to say that
Autopipe is the best stress analysis program I've used.
It's very intuitive and simple to use. I'm very excited
to see the full version of Autopipe 8.5. Keep up the
great work you guys are doing."
