Difference between the Support and Restraint output reports
Membrane stresses at pipe supports are not reported
During animation of load-case in AutoPIPE, pipe support moved with pipe freely without any opposition
Load on the support in open gap direction
Weight of Contents does not appear to be considered
Why are membrane stresses from pipe support not included?
Little to no displacement at a Support that has large gaps all around
Pipe movement exceeds gap distance
Support forces for Occasional load (i.e. Earthquake) are not evenly distributed among multiple supports
How are a support's axial force due to xxx load case calculated?
Support forces = 0.00
Why local support forces on a global axis not match global forces
Spring or rigid hangers on vertical legs showing large reaction loads for hydrotest load case
Preload?
Are the support forces output calculated with considering the velocity? Answer: No.
