Problem:
How to add Seismic load case "Seis Ind Cmb.1-HDPE{1}" for HDPE combinations for ASME 31.1 piping code?
Solution:
Specifically, after analyzing the system, select Tools> Combinations, Code combination tab, press the "Seismic Combs" button, specify both a "Equivalent Seismic Wave Prop Case" (T1) and "Seismic Anchor Movement Case" (S1) for each Comb 1-4, note "Soil Settlement Cases" are optional. Press OK button to close the dialog screen and press "Reset Default Only" button, now "Seis Ind Cmb.1-HDPE{1}" combination will appear in the "Combination" column.
