Hi any one suggest me resolve this problem.
I have designed a vertical vessel with base ring including gussets and lugs.
my question is while performing the analyze base ring input values are changed ie)during design some values were changed.update the new value yes or no?.
I use the design option as bro&young design and method for thick calc is simplified or steel or steel.
But base ring value not changed in other design options.

kindly advise.

regards
joseph

Dear Joseph,

I am not totally clear on your question. If you choose a design option then after the analysis the program will prompt you to accept the new values, you can say yes or no.

So, you should select Yes to get these new values.

Please clarify your question and attach the PV Elite input file.
