Problem:

 Is it possible to break the stresses down into a longitudinal component and a bending component and get the results for each?

Solution:

 Look at the result grid which may show some additional values for different piping codes. For CSA I see the following:

Also, user can take out the General Stress Report, which for the non-code combinations can give him more information like longitudinal stress (max / min) or the principal stresses:
