Problem:

In Stress Isometric Stress summary table we have the results of Stress summary legend "B31.1-04", but our code selected is ASME B31.1 - 2014
Example:

------------------------------------------------------
MODEL INFO AutoPIPE Ver: 09.06.02.06
System: P1747P950-01
Piping Code: ASME B31.1 - 2014
Model Rev: 2126 Ambient: 15.7 (deg C )
------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------
B31.1-04 STRESS SUMMARY - N/mm2
Category Point Stress Allowable Ratio >1 Combination
Hoop A00 124.1 137.9 0.90 Max P{4}
Sustain A06 69.8 137.9 0.51 GR + Max P{4}
Expansion B07 90.3 287.9 0.31 TR:GR+P1+T1+E1
Occasion A00 97.8 165.0 0.59 Sus. + W4
------------------------------------------------------

Please, explain us why and how to avoid

Answer:

This is just a label issue on the stress summary data table. Program is using the appropriate applicable code and year for calculations.

The following has been logged - TFS-D328260: Program is writing an internal number with piping code in result MDB and Stress Isometric Stress summary table
