ADLPIPE is the most reliable piping engineering software for the Power
and Process industries. It offers stress analysis of piping systems under
static and dynamic loads as per ANSI, ASME and British standard codes.
ADLPIPE is the first 32-bit Windows native standalone piping software
running inside Windows 95/NT. ADLPIPE's graphical user interface makes it
the industry's most intuitive software.
