About Codeware

Since 1985, Codeware has focused exclusively on providing software for the design and analysis of ASME vessels and exchangers.1 By combining engineering expertise, innovative software solutions and unmatched customer support, Codeware has established itself as the leading ASME Section VIII software provider.

Engineering Expertise
Codeware's Austin, Texas based Development Team has the expertise needed to understand the complexities of the Code rules and the practical experience required to implement an effective software solution. Codeware currently participates in both the ASME External Pressure Committee as well as the Heat Transfer Equipment (Section VIII) Committee.

Innovative Software Solutions
In the beginning Codeware pioneered the application of graphical user interfaces to vessel design. Today we have set the bar by offering integrated ASME and NBIC form generation and an interactive thermal-mechanical interface to the popular HTRI® Xchanger Suite®.

Unmatched Customer Support
Very specialized knowledge is required to answer the detailed questions asked by COMPRESS users. From in-depth vessel and exchanger inquires to explaining how COMPRESS performs specific ASME calculations, our in-house team of experienced Mechanical Engineers is available to help. The Support Team works closely with our Austin, Texas based Development Team to ensure customer feedback is at the core of all development work. This structure enables our Support Team to give their full attention to assisting users while the developers focus entirely on implementing the best solution.

1 The ASME Code is an internationally recognized standard used to ensure the safety of a broad range of pressurized equipment. The ASME Code, and therefore COMPRESS, finds application in a wide variety of industries including petrochemical, nuclear, pulp and paper and, most recently, biofuels.
