Hello Folks
In the 2010 version of PV Elite this issue has been fixed. If the thickness of a component is less that 1.5 mm, and you have chosen metric units, and set the configuration dialogue screen to consistent metric units, you will get this note:
Note: The thickness required was less than the Code Minimum, therefore
the Code Minimum value of 1.5000 mm per UG-16 will be used.
One of the problems we have is that people do not use SI Metric units, and PV Elite can get confused. For example, in many countries, such as India, stresses are designated in kgf/cm^2. This is not a metric unit. Other counties may state pressure in psi, and stresses in N/mm^2. PV Elite has no problem with proper SI Metric units, but may not be able to handle other units. Make sure you set the configuration dialogue screen to consistent metric units.
