Question:
When analyzing a model in AutoPIPE Vessel the following Error number was reported.
769 ROOF: geometrical conditions not maintained.
Why and how to avoid it?
Answer:
Start by opening the output report on this model and go to the "Self-Supporting Roof" section.
Look for and address anything in red text.
Example:
find in report:
D = Nominal Diameter = 9.9792 ft
rr = roof radius = 6.25 ft
0.8D = 7.9 ft.
1.2D = 11.9 ft.
Go back to AutoPIPE Vessel and edit the Roof element.
