Calculate an equivalent single density and use the larger diameter. That will be accurate and allow for correct wind load results too.

Thank You for the Reply Moverz,

weight of Insulation for Rigid Element and Pipe are Different in

CAESAR? How CAESAR Calculates weight of Insulation For Rigids?

For rigid elements, CAESAR II will apply an insulation weight based on 1.75 times the insulation weight for pipe of the entered OD.
