HI,

I am using CAESAR II release 2016. I have inserted 4.35 psi (0.3 bar) blast pressure with pressure vs elevation method whereas i got really low stress pattern in results than i was expecting to receive. In addition, in global element forces output window loads were extremely small. Now I am looking at the misc info in the output screen and pressure comes up in N/m2 however the user profile units have set to be in psi. This is not a conversion as the figure is exactly the same but the unit is different.

Can you please advise on a solution?

Regards,
RA
