The "Code Compliance" grid displays the combination set defined for piping code compliance (both the default combinations and user-defined sets). Any default code combination may be modified, deleted or reset and any new user combination created and modified in the same grid.
User Code Combinations dialog
Comments, Questions, & Answers:
- Define allowable for all code combination
- M/S column
- Is the order of the load cases / combinations of a User defined combination of any consequence?
- Which Code combinations are considered an Occasional Load(s)?
- Are predefined stress category maximums [i.e. (LONG), (Sus), (exp), (0cc), (hoop) ] calculated across all analysis set regardless of load cases turned ON / OFF in any one analysis set?
- Range of T1, T2, T3, ...,Tn thermal load cases
- Find the MAX load case from a group of load cases
- DNV code combination for collapse P1..Pn use only T1..Tn load case and not P1..Pn load case
- Valid combination?
- Allowable calculation with safety factore
- Code combinations do not appear the same in 2 different models
- Correctly add a USER defined N-755-1 (ex. GR + Max P + T1) Code Combinations
- See Non-code information on Code combinations results
- Evaluate using the correct allowable for each Nuclear Service Level?
- Considering that E2=-E1, why are the combinations GRTP2-E1 & GRTP2+E2 results not the same?
- Determine Young's modulus value used when calculating the bending stress
- Is Longitudinal Pressure stress included in Code combinations?
- Sustain Code combination with Gravity, Pressure, and Temperature
- No Max Range combination was displayed for HDPE piping
- Calculate moment results (Ma , Mb, Mc) for the selected Combination Method (ex. SRSS, ABS, etc..)
- Calculate SAM and Expansion stress values independently, and then add these two stress values together
- SAM cases are not included in code combination, only the seismic force are being evaluated
