Feature 1089332

Add a Jacketed (double wall) Piping component

Bug 959774

Program crashes on editing any node after editing tee point

============================================================================================

Enhancement 1089332

Add SIF information to Bend dialog / input grid

Enhancement 919398

Add feature to automatically split all runs into user defined number

Enhancement 138680

Add features to include Type A/B fitting pressure factor for En13480 piping code

Workaround: model as a 4 point tee with the correct pipe properties and pressure settings. Set type of tee to one closely associated with a similar SIF calculation, or select Tyep = User and enter in hand calculated SIF values.
