This calculation method is based on the ATV-A 127 worksheet of August 2000. DIN EN 1295 part 1 and DIN EN 1610 have also been taken into account as far as is relevant.

This intelligent software PipeWorks for the calculation of pipes in the open trench offers the possibility to optimize pressurized and pressureless pipes with regard to the laying conditions, the material and the wall thickness, to avoid damages, to save enormous costs with the same function and to show clear alternative solutions.

Due to the possibility to select the material parameters freely within the software, any pipes, even from new materials, can be calculated. Standard values are stored in a material database.
