Optimize Appendix 2 Flange Designs

Standard ASME B16.5/16.47 flanges usually provide the most cost effective solution for bolted connections. For cases where no standard flange exists, the more complex rules of ASME Appendix 2 can be used. The COMPRESS Flange Wizard is a tool that creates optimized Appendix 2 flange designs with minimal time and effort. [...]
