What's New in CAESAR II
The latest CAESAR II release delivers a number of significant new and extended capabilities in
response to current market requirements, as well as direct feedback from the growing CAESAR
II user community. The following changes have been made to CAESAR II:
CAESAR II 2018, Version 10.00
Piping and Equipment Codes

 Added support for KHK Level II seismic analysis, including the following features:
 Redesigned and improved the Seismic Wizard with an easy-to-use interface. You can
select the KHK design code, choose seismic level 1 or 2, and calculate a seismic load
(g).
 Added new load case Stress Types to support level 2 analysis (K2P, K2SA, K2SR,
K2L).
 Added a new KHK Level 2 Bend Evaluation Report, which reports on bend behavior
in the system.
 Added a new Seismic Analysis section to the Miscellaneous Data Options report.
The section summarizes seismic input and calculated g factors (magnifiers of
gravitational loading).
 Updated the calculations for longitudinal pressure stress in the B31.4 Chapter IX, B31.8
Chapter VIII, Canadian Z662 Chapter 11, and Det Norske Veritas (DNV) offshore codes.
 Added support for B31.3 Chapter IX (high pressure).
 Updated the following codes: B31.3 -2016, B31.8 -2016, B31.8 Ch VIII -2016, and
EN-13480 -2014 (Issued 2016).
 Updated to the latest code standards for JPI-7S-77-10 (2010) and HPGSL/KHK (2012).
Material and Content

 Updated to support the latest edition of the JPI and HPGSL codes. The updates include the
following improvements:
 Updated materials applicable to the JPI and HPGSL codes in the Material Database
Editor. Also, updated Japanese custom material databases (UMAT_HP&JPI.UMD and
UMAT_MHI.UMD) with new materials.
 Added an Unspecified option to the Type field in the Material Database Editor for the
HPGSL and JPI piping codes.
 Updated EN-13480 materials and fixed miscellaneous issues:
 Added new materials from EN 10216-2:2013, EN 10216-5:2013, and EN 10217-7:2014.
 Updated the content of existing EN 10216-5:2013 materials.
 Corrected the density for 429 (304L) stainless steel.
 Added yield stress data and corrected the density for numerous EN materials.

 Corrected the thermal expansion coefficient and elastic modulus for 1.4462S and
1.4462W.
 EN 10216-2:2013 (200,000 hr) materials are now available for CODETI.
 Russian materials are available for the B31.1, B31.3, B31.4, and B31.8 codes. The software
references these materials from the User Material Database (UMD) file. For more
information, see User Material Database Filename in the CAESAR II User’s Guide or Online
Help.
 B31.4 Chapter XI, formerly B31.11, uses the same materials as B31.4 and B31.4 Chapter
IX.
 Improved display of Maximum (FX, FY, FZ, MX, MY, MZ) values in the Static Output
Processor graphics. Values display on the applicable From Node or To Node, in centerline
mode, and at the correct structural node (for steel elements).
Configuration
 New DirectX 9, DirectX 11, OpenGL2, and CAESAR II Determines video driver options
were added to the Graphics Settings tab in the CAESAR II Configuration Editor. The
Video Driver configuration setting now defaults to CAESAR II Determines, which means
the software intelligently selects the appropriate video driver to use based on your system
settings. In addition, the active video driver now displays on the status bar at the bottom of
the CAESAR II main window.
Support and Element Identification

Enhanced identification for restraints, hangers, and elements throughout the software:
 Expanded the Restraints auxiliary panel with two additional restraint definitions to support
six degrees of freedom.
 Added a new Tag field for each restraint definition.
 Added new Tag and GUID columns to the Restraints list input. These fields reflect the new
capability of the software to read and import support ID and display-only support GUID data
from PCF files.
 Added Tag field to the Hangers auxiliary panel and to in the Piping Input.
 Update the Hangers list input to include the hanger Tag and the display-only hanger GUID
columns. These fields reflect the new capability of the software to read and import hanger ID
and display-only hanger GUID data from PCF files.
 Added the Element Name field to the Piping Input window and to the Elements list input.
Element names also display in force reports, stress output reports, and stress isometric
drawings.
 The software now allows you to customize the mapping options for attributes in the PCF file.
For example, you can map the attribute definitions from the NAME or TAG attributes to the
Tag field. You can also display tag and GUID data in annotations in stress isometric
drawings.
 Added the Show Tags option to Options > Node Numbers to allow the display of support
tags, hanger tags, and element names in the graphic view.
 Added Tag/GUID fields (for supports/restraints, hangers, and element names) in applicable
output reports and in the MDB output tables.

Piping Input
 When you delete pipe elements, the software retains the original nodal coordinates for all
disconnected segments, instead of resetting the starting coordinates of those segments to
the global setting (0,0,0).
 Implemented find and replace functionality within the List dialog. You can use the
Find/Replace option on the right-click menu in the List dialog to search and replace data in
a selected column.
 Set North Direction replaces Model Rotation in the Advanced PCF Import (APCF) and
Special Execution Parameters dialog boxes. Model Orientation replaces Model Rotation
in the Load S3D/SPR Model dialog box. You can specify the orientation of the Smart 3D or
SmartPlant Review model to be imported. This is useful when you do not use the default
CAESAR II mapping.
 Added Previous and Invert options to the Line Numbers dialog box in Classic Piping
Input and Static Output Processor. Previous allows you to save the current view and
return to the previous view. Invert allows you to toggle line number selections.
Load Case Editor

 Improved the clarity and functionality of the Delete option in the Static Analysis - Load
Case Editor. When you delete load cases in the Static Analysis - Load Case Editor, the
Load Case Delete Confirmation window displays the load cases (and their dependents)
that are deleted or revised. Remaining load cases are renumbered.
3D Model/Graphics
 Enhanced Options > Axis (formerly Compass ) and Configuration Manager
(Tools > Configure/Setup ) to allow display of a North arrow in Classic Piping Input and
Static Output Processor. The North arrow indicates the North orientation of the plant.
 Rotational restraints, such as RX, RY, and RZ, display graphically with rotational arrows.
 Updated the software to ensure consistent functionality when using the Delete and
Backspace keys on the 3D model. Now, if you press Delete when you have selected one
more model components, the software deletes the selected elements. The software no
longer performs an action when pressing the Backspace key when you have a model
component selected. (The Backspace key works within the annotation or the move
geometry functions.)
 Added a Mill Tolerance icon to the Legends toolbar. In addition, the Mill Tolerance options
was added to the Options menu on the Classic Piping Input and the PlotOptions menu
on the Static Output Processor.
 Symbols for restraints display on the outside of the pipe and remain visible when you use
Options > Restraints.
 Enhanced the 3D mode so that multiple hangers display separately with leaders at the
location of the hanger when you use Options > Hangers . Previously, the software only
displayed one hanger symbol on a model when you had multiple hangers at the same
location.
 Added the Show Fixed option to Options > Displacements to allow the display of fixed
displacement vectors on the 3D model.

Analysis
 Updated the ISO 14692 code stress calculations for load cases using the combination
methods (scalar, max, min, etc.). Previously, the software did not use the effective hoop and
axial stress values when calculating the code stress using the combination methods for
SIGNMAX and SIGNMIN.
 Redesigned the user interface for the API 610 equipment module to improve
functionality and usability. New features include:
 Quick input and viewing of API 610 pumps.
 The Load Case Sets tab lets you quickly define load cases and load case sets with
suction and discharge nozzles.
 Analysis of multiple load cases and multiple pumps.
 Ability to update loads when the results of an imported and linked pipe stress analysis
change.
 Comprehensive, easy-to-read output results on the Output tab.
User Interface
 The Add to Quick Access Toolbar right-click command allows you to add any ribbon
command to the Quick Access toolbar in the main CAESAR II window.
Integration
 Updated the CAESAR II installation wizard to include steps to install the B31J Essentials
product from Paulin Research Group (PRG). B31J Essentials provides a set of calculations
for revised SIFs and flexibility factors, as defined in the upcoming revision to ASME B31J,
Stress Intensification Factors (i-Factors), Flexibility Factors (k-Factors) and their
Determination for Metallic Piping Components. The B31J Essentials product is included with
the latest version of CAESAR II and provides users with the ability to use PRG's FEATools
application to perform the empirical B31J calculations. (CR-TX-20363)
 Added a new Length for Nodal Increment field to the Advanced PCF dialog boxes. This
field sets the nodal increment for imported PCF files based on pipe length, which allows you
to add more node increments for longer lengths of pipe.
Documentation/Help
 Added more explanation and an example for using the Alternate SUS/OCC option of the
Load Case Editor in the Static Analysis section of the CAESAR II User's Guide.
 Revised, reorganized, and added graphics to Tutorial A in the CAESAR II Application Guide.
 To provide better clarity, revised the overview and workflow topics for Advanced PCF
Import (APCF) in the Piping Input Reference section of the CAESAR II User's Guide.

SECTION 1
Overview
™
The CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide helps you quickly identify needed information, answer
common questions, and resolve common problems. You can copy it as needed.
CAESAR II is an advanced tool for designing and analyzing piping systems using input forms,
on-line help, graphics, and extensive error detection.
CAESAR II statically and dynamically analyzes large piping models, structural steel models, or
combined models. ASME, B31, WRC, and rotating equipment reports are created to provide a
complete description of piping system behavior under applied loading conditions. Additional
capabilities, such as out-of-core solvers, force spectrum analysis (for water hammer and relief
valve solutions), time history, and large rotation rod hangers provide you with the most
advanced computer-based piping program available today.
CAESAR II is continuously enhanced to add new functionality and to modify existing procedures
as piping codes are updated. For more information on the most recent changes to CAESAR II,
see What's New in CAESAR II (on page 6).

SECTION 2
Licensing
CAESAR II supports the following types of licensing:
 Local External Software Lock (ESL)
Hardware-based licensing using a green USB dongle. A local ESL can be moved
between computers (such as between desktops and laptops).
 Network External Software Lock (ESL)
Hardware-based licensing using a red USB dongle. A network ESL is installed on a
computer that is network accessible from the computer, or multiple computers, running
CAESAR II.
 License Manager
Software-based licensing using SmartPlant License Manager (SPLM). For more
information, see SmartPlant License Manager Installation (on page 17). Refer to the
SmartPlant License Manager documentation for complete installation and configuration
instructions.
External Software Lock (ESL) Keys

The External Software Lock (ESL) is the security protection method used by CADWorx &
Analysis Solutions The software cannot execute unless an appropriate ESL (green or red USB
key) is connected locally to the computer, or to another computer in the network (red USB key).
The ESL contains the CAESAR II licensing data, and other client-specific information. This
information includes the client company name and user ID number. Additional data may be
stored on the ESL depending on the specific program and the specific client.
There are two different ESL types, local and network. Both types of ESLs are intended to be
attached to the USB ports of the applicable computers. The appropriate ESL(s) are shipped with
your product according to the licensing type purchase.
 Local ESLs provide the maximum flexibility in using the software in that they can be moved
between computers (for example, between desktops and laptops).
 Network ESLs must be attached to a computer on the network, either a computer or the
server. In order for the network to respond to software requests for the ESL, the NetHASP
License Manager utility must also be running on the computer where the network ESL is
attached.
The HASP drivers for ESL usage can be found in the sub-directory, ASSIDRV, beneath the
analysis products program directory. However, for CADWorx the HASP drivers for ESL usage
can be found in the sub-directory, Utilities. The documentation files in this sub-directory contain
instructions for a variety of networks and operating systems. Note that there are periodic
updates to these ESL drivers and they can be downloaded from the Intergraph Smart Support
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com) website.
Do not connect two locks to the same computer. The software finds the first lock and
returns its code. For example, you have a lock for CAESAR II and CADWorx and plug both into
the same computer. You start CAESAR II, but the software might find the CADWorx lock first

Licensing
and return an error. If the same computer is going to run more than one CADWorx & Analysis
Solutions product, then contact Intergraph CAS by sending an email to
icaslicenserequests@intergraph.com to request that both products be licensed from the same
lock.
ESL Installation
The following topics explain how to install the different hardware locks supported by CAESAR II.
What do you want to do?

 Install a local lock (on page 14)
 Install a network lock (on page 14)
Install a local lock

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. If you are installing CAESAR II, PV Elite, or TANK, navigate to c:\Program Files\Intergraph
CAS\Product\Assidrv and double-click HASPUserSetup.exe.
-OR-
If you are installing CADWorx, navigate to C:\CADWorx Version\Utilities and double-click
HaspHLDriverSetup.exe
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.
Install a network lock

The following list details general information about Legacy HASP network (red) ESLs.
If you are using an SRM/LDK network (red) ESL, refer to Managing SRM Network Licenses.
 The red network ESL should be set up by a Network Administrator or someone familiar with
Windows-based networks. If you are not familiar with concepts such as network protocols,
broadcast, IP addresses, TCP, UDP, and Windows Services, please do not attempt to setup
the red network ESL.
 The red network ESL does not have to be attached to the network server. We recommend
attaching the red network ESL to a computer that is always up and running, can be
re-booted without impact to users, and is not the primary computer for any user on the
network.
 If you install an Intergraph CAS product on a network drive for multiple users to access,
assign read/write privileges for all users to the [Product Folder]\System folder. Intergraph
CAS applications write temporary files to the [Product Folder]\System folder that pertains to
the installation. The [Product Folder]\System folder also needs to have read/write privileges
for all users.
 If you are using other network protocols, such as NetBIOS or IPX, check the SafeNet web
site for instructions. The only protocol tested with Intergraph CAS products is TCP/IP.

Licensing
 The information provided in the analysis products Help file is a supplement to the NetHasp
User's Guide, which is delivered as a PDF(_NETHASP.pdf) in Assidrv folder. CADWorx
delivers this _NETHASP.pdf in the Utilities folder. Review the PDF file for any issues not

Notes on Network ESLs

A network ESL has advantages and disadvantages. One big advantage is that many client
computers can access the software from a single server. Additional points for consideration are
listed below.
 Depending on the number of licenses allowed by the network ESL, some users may receive
error messages when attempting to access the software. For example, if the ESL has been
configured to allow four simultaneous users, an error message stating that no licenses are
available when the fifth user attempts to access the software. Consequently, the fifth user is
not able to access the software until one of the first four users exits the software and
releases a license.
 Because of the communication procedures between the client computer and the file server,
memory access to the network ESL is much slower than to a local ESL. This access time
delay only occurs when the software is first started after installation.
 Because there is no network specific version of the software, the software looks first for a
local ESL, and then for a network ESL. This allows both a network ESL and several local
ESLs to be used on the same system. This transparent ESL access procedure allows a
single version of the software to be used on the network and on remote computers.
 We recommend that only 70 to 80 percent of the required licenses be assigned to a network
ESL, with the remaining 20 to 30 percent assigned to local ESLs. This enables the local ESL
to be moved between computers. If all of the licenses are on the network ESL, a user must
be logged into the network to access the software. As such, a few local ESLs provide much
greater operating flexibility.
NetHASP License Manager / NETHASP.INI Instructions

You must have Administrator privileges to perform the following procedure.
1. Attach the red network hardware lock to the parallel port or USB port of the computer.
2. On the computer where the hardware lock is attached, navigate to the analysis products'
Assidrv folder, and then double-click Lmsetup.exe. For CADWorx, navigate to the [Product
Folder]\Utilities to access LMsetup.exe. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the
NetHASP License Manager as a service.
3. The NetHasp License Manager starts automatically each time you re-boot the computer.
This occurs because the NetHasp License Manager is set up as a start up service inside
Windows 7/8. To verify that the service is running, click Start > Control Manager >
Administrative Services, and then double-click Services. In the Services dialog box,
locate HASP Loader in the Name list. The HASP Loader Service starts even if no one logs
into the computer.
4. Determine what protocols the NetHasp License Manager is listening to. The NetHasp
License Manager displays a message similar to those list below:
Server is listening to IPX : Loaded
Server is listening to TCP/IP : Loaded

Licensing
Server is listening to NetBIOS : Loaded

Loaded means that this protocol is active on the computer.
5. Open the Activity Log menu. This displays the activity log that confirms which protocols are
loaded. Do not be alarmed if the activity log reports that the NHSRV.ini file is not found.
6. Use the box in the top-left corner of the activity log to display only the information specific to
each protocol. Open the activity log for the protocol you want to use, and verify that it
contains no error messages.
7. For TCP/IP protocol, the activity log should report something similar to the following:
Server IP address: 111.111.111.111
Server Host Name: PDC_NT01
8. To speed up response time to the network key, use the Remove menu to unload any
protocols that you are not planning to use with the NetHasp License Manager.
Modify NetHASP.ini for TCP/IP Protocol

If you still cannot access the network ESL you need to configure this
NetHASP.ini file. You must know the IP address of the computer where the red network
hardware lock is attached. All lines with a semi-colon at the start are considered not used.
1. Modify the NetHASP.ini file, located in the analysis products' Assidrv folder and in
CADWorx's Utilities folder under [NH_COMMON], as follows:
a. NH_TCPIP = Enabled
AND under [NH_TCPIP]
b. NH_SERVER_ADDR = 111.111.111.111
c. NH_USE_BROADCAST = Disabled
You may also have to modify other entries in the [NH_TCPIP] section depending
on your network setup. The most common entry to modify is NH_TCPIP_METHOD.
2. Copy the NetHASP.ini file to the AutoCAD folder.
Example: C:\Program Files\AutoCAD
Example: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD
3. For CADWorx Design Review, copy the NetHASP.ini file to the [Product Folder]\Intergraph
CAS\CADWorx Design Review folder.
4. Start CAESAR II.

Licensing
Troubleshooting Network Locks

1. Verify that the NetHasp License Manager is running on the computer where the red network
ESL is attached.
2. Verify the protocols that NetHasp License Manager is broadcasting. Make sure that these
protocols are installed on the client computers.
3. Install and run the Monitor Utility. You can find the NetHASPMonitorSetup.exe located in the
analysis products' Assidrv folder. For CADWorx, you can find the
NetHASPMonitorSetup.exe in the [Product Folder]\Utilities. If NetHASP Monitor cannot find
the red network ESL, then CAESAR II cannot find the red network ESL.

SECTION 3
Using the SmartPlant License Checkout
Utility
The SmartPlant License Checkout utility allows you to obtain licenses for ICAS for use on a
non-networked computer (for example, a remote laptop). Using this utility allows you to run ICAS
without a network connection to the license machine. Each user on a server can check out a
license on that machine. When you check out a license, the license and expiration information
are stored for use by the application. Your Intergraph application determines the license
information location and whether the checkout operation applies to all users or a single user on
the same system.
Each time you start the product during the checkout period, a message displays the expiration
date for the checked out license. When the checkout period for the license expires, the
application attempts to request a license using SmartPlant License Manager the next time you
start the product. For example, after the license expires at 11:59 PM on the expiration date, the
next time you start the product, it attempts to access the SmartPlant License Manager license
machine for base and module licenses prior to running.
 For information on products supported by the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility, see the
Intergraph PPM Compatibility Matrix - Product Report: Intergraph Smart Support Online
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com).
 You must install and configure SmartPlant License Manager before checking out a license.
 You must have administrator privileges to setup and install the utility.
Install SmartPlant License Checkout Utility

Do not uninstall the version of the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility that is
currently on your system if you (a) are installing a new product that includes the latest version of
the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility, or (b) have other Intergraph applications loaded on
your machine. You can have both versions of the Checkout Utility installed on your system. The
older version of the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility is required to work with your
currently-loaded applications. Refer to the compatibility matrix chart on Smart Support for
information on application versions and their required version of the SmartPlant License
Checkout Utility.
The SmartPlant License Checkout Utility version that is supported by your purchased Intergraph

following example:
License Checkout Utility Dialog Box

Specifies the product for which you want to check out a license.
Application Group
Displays the installed products available for license checkout. Select the product for which
you want to check out licenses.
If the Application Group list is empty, your application requires an older version
of the checkout utility. Please check your original product installation media for the
compatible version of the utility.
Available Modules
Displays any modules or add-ins available with your product. If no modules appear in the
list, either your product contains no supported modules, or no modules have been installed.
Check the box beside the module for which you want to check out a license, and then click
Check Out. If you want to check out only the base product, do not check any of the
modules.

Using the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility
License Expiration
Specifies the date that you want the checkout to expire. When the checkout period for the
license expires, the product returns to normal and connected license operation using the
SmartPlant License Manager the next time you start the product.
For CAESAR II, a license can be checked out for a maximum of 90 days.
Check Out a License

1. Make sure SmartPlant License Manager (SPLM) is set up on your computer.
2. Click Start > Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant License Checkout Utility > License
Checkout Utility.
License Checkout Utility Dialog Box (on page 20)
3. In the Application Group list, select your product.
4. In the Available Modules list, select the module to use.
5. If required, select an expiration from the License Expiration list, and then click Check Out.
The minimum length of time you can have a license checked out is for approximately 24 hours.
You can cut this time down to approximately 12 hours if you check out the license just before
mid-day. For product-specific check out information, refer to the installation guide provided with
your product.
Each time you start CAESAR II while using remote license mode, the software displays a
message informing you when the checked out licenses expire. The first time that you run
CAESAR II after the checked out licenses expire, the software displays a message informing
you that the checked out licenses have expired and that the software is reverting to the standard
connected license mode and attempting to get licenses from SmartPlant License Manager.
 When running in remote license mode, you cannot use setup to modify the product
installation until the following conditions are met:
 The checkout duration expires.
 The system is working with SmartPlant License Manager in connected license mode
once again.
In other words, you cannot install or remove modules while running in remote license mode.
 If CAESAR II is running in remote license mode but is unable to confirm for any reason that
it is running in that mode, CAESAR II automatically returns to connected license mode and
attempts to obtain the licenses from SmartPlant License Manager. CAESAR II notifies you if
it is unable to obtain licenses from SmartPlant License Manager.

Network Installations
The installation program treats a network drive no different than a local hard drive. Specify the
target installation drive and folder, and the software will be copied and expanded accordingly.
Some networks protect installation directories from subsequent modification by users. This
involves setting the access rights to the installation folder to read, share, and scan. Because
Intergraph CAS, Inc. software uses data files specific to the installation (that is, accounting files,
material files, and so forth) that a user may need to modify, these files cannot be installed in a
typical write-protected installation folder.
Therefore, CAESAR II installs these data files in a System subfolder, located in the following
location of your root directory based on your platform.
Windows 7/Vista
\Program Data\Intergraph CAS\CAESAR II\Version Number\System
Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Intergraph CAS\CAESAR II\Version
Number\System
 While the actual name of the program's installation folder can revised when you install the
software, the CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder name is fixed as it is automatically created by
CAESAR II. If you rename the CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder, CAESAR II fails run and
generates an error report.
 Do not confuse this CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder is not the primary, top-level SYSTEM
directory that contains the network operating system. Consult your system administrator for
further clarification.
After the software has been installed on the network drive, the installation program launches the
CAESAR II Configuration Editor, which generates a default configuration file.

Node Locations on Bends

Bends are defined by the element entering the bend and the element leaving the bend. The
actual bend curvature is always physically at the TO end of the element entering the bend.
 The element leaving a bend must appear immediately after the element defining (entering)
the bend.
 The default bend radius is 1.5 times the pipe nominal OD.
 For stress and displacement output, the TO node of the element entering the bend is
located geometrically at the FAR point on the bend. The FAR point is at the weld line of the
bend and adjacent to the straight element leaving the bend.
 The NEAR point on the bend is at the weld line of the bend and adjacent to the straight
element entering the bend.
 The FROM point on the element is located at the NEAR point of the bend if the total length
of the element as specified in the DX, DY and DZ fields is equal to:
Radius ∗ tan( Beta / 2 )
where Beta is the bend angle and Radius is the bend radius of curvature to the bend
centerline.
 Nodes defined in the Angle # and Node # fields are placed at the given angle on the bend
curvature. The angle starts with zero degrees at the NEAR point on the bend and goes to
“Beta” degrees at the FAR point of the bend.
 Angles are always entered in degrees.

By default, nodes on the bend curvature cannot be specified within five (5) degrees of one
another or within five degrees of the nearest end point. This and other bend settings may be
changed in the Configuration Editor. Click Configure or Tools > Configure/Setup.
For more information, see Configuration Options (on page 35) and Geometry Directives (on
page 39).
 When the FROM node on the element entering the bend is not at the bend NEAR point, a
node may be placed at the NEAR point of the bend by entering an Angle # equal to 0.0
degrees. For more information, see the graphic below.
When defining a bend element for the first time in the pipe spreadsheet, nodes are
automatically placed at the near and midpoint of the bend. The generated midpoint node
number is one less than the TO node number on the element, and the generated near point
node number is two less than the TO node number on the element. A near point should
always be included in the model in tight, highly formed piping systems. The top-left figure
below shows the points on the bend as they would be input. The top-right figure shows the
actual geometric location of the points on the bend. The bottom-left figure shows the same
geometry except that two nodes are defined on the bend curvature at angles of zero and
forty-five degrees.

Code Stresses
US Code Stresses
The US code-based stress equations and load case labels used by CAESAR II for actual and
allowable stresses are shown below.
The load case recommendations made by CAESAR II are usually sufficient for code
compliance. CAESAR II does not recommend occasional load cases. Occasional loads are
unknown in origin and you must specify them.
