Question:
When analyzing a model in AutoPIPE Vessel the following warning number was reported.
771 ROOF: stiffener at the roof-to-shell joint is insufficient.
Why and how to avoid it?
Answer:
The size of the stiffener at the roof-to-shell joint is currently insufficient and must be increased to meet the requirements specified in code clauses 5.1.5.9 (e) and 5.9.3.
In this case, the stiffener dimensions are missing.
Enter the stiffener dimensions so that the available section modulus of the stiffener exceeds the required section modulus.
