SPRING CAN DESIGN

Hi,

I need to design one SUPPORT not RIGID but HAVING SPRING.

Can I do it by using Hanger design and just putting -ve value in available space field?

I understand that the hanger design report gives a fig.no and size based on the supplier selelcted. But then this comes same for the hanger and spring can. What this "size" signifies. I dont hv supplier catalogue with me at this moment to verity.

Lisega is the supplier.

Will anyone please guide me as i m still on the learning curve.

Thanks in advance.

Actually all you have to do is specify the hanger node and CAESAR II will design a spring hanger. If you put a negative number in the available space field CAESAR II will design a spring can (under the pipe).

The "size" is the size of the spring, moving horizontally across the spring table in the catalog.

It looks like the Lisega catalog is available
