Eliminate Piping Layout Delays with CheckStress: Smarter Design, Faster Projects
Video
Info
We understand the pressure Process Plant and MEP contractors face to deliver safe, code-compliant piping systems—on time and on budget. That’s why we offer CheckStress, the industry’s most intuitive and time-saving solution for preemptive piping stress validation.
What is CheckStress?
CheckStress bridges the gap between piping designers and stress engineers by enabling designers to identify and resolve stress issues early—before the first handoff. This eliminates the costly “back-and-forth” iterations that delay projects and drain resources.
Key Benefits for Contractors:
- Accelerate Project Timelines
- Reduce layout-stress review cycles and avoid bottlenecks in the design process.
Avoid Costly Rework
Catch code compliance issues before they reach the stress engineer or the construction site.
Improve System Reliability
Ensure piping systems meet stress codes from the start, reducing the risk of failure or redesign.
Boost Profitability
Shorter project durations and fewer errors mean stronger margins and happier clients.
Powerful Features
- Reads Directly from 3D Plant Design Systems
- Imports geometry, materials, temperatures, pressures, and support data from platforms like AutoCAD Plant 3D, PDMS, SmartPlant, and CADMATIC.
Real-Time Stress Visualization
Displays stress ratio contour plots and deflected shapes for sustained, operating, and expansion load cases.
Automatic Code Compliance Checks
Helps designers create layouts that meet ASME and other piping codes—right from the first iteration.
Seamless Integration with Analysis Tools
Generates input files for CAEPIPE, CAESAR II, and PIPESTRESS for detailed analysis when needed.
Designed for the Way You Work
Whether you're designing a chemical plant, refinery, or HVAC system, CheckStress empowers your team to design with confidence, reduce delays, and deliver higher-quality piping systems—faster.
Supported Platforms:
