Hi all,

I have a quick question about FEATools. Is there a way to avoid having the restraint loads from the restraints added by FEATools on the T's in the restraint report? It is confusing the clients to see these additional restraints in Caesar output that are not on the drawings. If anybody has some tips about this, I would really appreciate the help.

Thank you in advance

We use restraints with Node/CNode pairs to specify branch flexibility and this method of modelling will show these terms in the restraint report.
We have a filter capability in CAESAR II output. If you have no other Node/CNode pairs in your model (e.g., pipe sitting on structure or a expansion joint tie rod model) use the filter to not report such restraints:

Thanks a lot Dave for your Tip.
