Caesar Configuration

Hello !

I am new user with Caesar II (6.10), I work frequently with Triflex ( and before with Autopipe )so I need me to adjust with the way as Caesar works. I am reeding/watching the Intergraph webnairs and trying to use the "help".

But iniatialy I noticed some diffences with the resulteds to a same model between Triflex and Caesar ( only to test ), where in the anchor reactions got the main differences ( some vectors in Caesar larger than Triflex ), with code compliance the diferences were around 15-20%.

I believe about adjusts in the configuration parameters ( to make the calculus with same procedures/basis ) but still I did not solve this. Would you have some tips to help me ?

Check the values of the material properties (density, modulus, expansion coefficient).

Start with simple models, and run load cases with only one load component, just weight, just T1, etc - until you can narrow down the difference.
