Problem:

The following note appears at the end of the Code Compliance settings section of an Analysis Summary output report::

*** NOTE ***                                                                                                                                   

  No operating loads analyzed. Maximum specified                               

  pressure will be used for sustained stress 

Why and how to avoid it?

Solution:

As mentioned by the messages, no operating load case were analyze. Since no operating case was not defined, the Sustain stress calculation will use the Maximum pressure defined at the node point 

However where is this missing operating load case? and what to do about it?

To answer these questions look over all of your analysis sets to see which one does not have an operating load case (ex. Gr or Temperature case).

With AutoPIPE 12.04 and lower there is no indication on which analysis set the note is referred too. Starting with AutoPIPE v.12.05 and higher, the note will be updated to indicate exactly which analysis set(s) has no operating case defined. Again this is just a note, to indicate to the user which Pressure was used in calculating the Sustain stress at a node point.
