VCLAVIS

Codeware is a suite of engineering software dedicated to the design, analysis, inspection, fabrication, and documentation of pressure vessels, heat exchangers, storage tanks, and related equipment under recognized industry standards such as ASME, API, TEMA, and other codes. At its core is COMPRESS, which performs full ASME VIII-compliant pressure-vessel and heat-exchanger design; it handles complex calculations including minimum design metal temperature, nozzle intersections, static head, fatigue screening, and more; produces finite element analysis when needed; generates solid models; and automatically creates detailed drawings, design reports, and cost estimates. For maintenance, inspection, or re-rating of existing equipment, INSPECT adds Fitness-For-Service (FFS) capabilities (API 579 and related standards), assessing flaws such as corrosion, damage, or crack-like defects, computing remaining life, generating re-rating or repair recommendations.
