Problem:

Following message appears when performing a design check in AutoPIPE:

W2182-28: Flanged valve/flexible joint should have mating flange/flanged component at Point A02 

Why and how to avoid it?

Solution:

This is only a warning message to the user to confirm that this is modeled correctly. 

Is the AutoPIPE Model correct:

Example:

If yes, then the warning message can be ignored. 

If no, then update the model accordingly.
