Problem:

Why does the "cold load" from the Hanger Analysis sub-report (2910 Kgf) not match the support load of a static v-stop support (2855 Kgf) ?

Solution:

Please see the following AutoPIPE help section:

The most common reasoning for this discrepancy is that the Static Analysis and Spring Hanger Analysis was not performed as the same type of analysis (i.e. either Linear or Non-Linear).

After confirming that both are being analyzed as the same type of analysis (i.e. Non-linear Analysis) the results were identical (ex. 2855 Kgf):
