CSI CSiPlant Overview
This is an integrated engineering software product for the analysis and design of piping systems and frame structures, including piping code compliance checks with stress-intensification and flexibility factors that are automatically calculated and applied.It offers advanced analysis technology to piping and structural engineers working in power, pipeline, and offshore industries. It uses elements, pipe support types, and modeling approaches familiar to piping and structural engineers in the process and power industries.
It also offers automatic alphanumeric labeling of node points and elements, intuitive Insert and Assign commands, and keyboard shortcuts, enabling engineers to utilize various modeling options to build, modify, and review their analysis models quickly.
