the structures where the piping system sits on, are relatively complex structures (all have stiffeners, bracing, stairways and etc.)
I tried to include the valve platform to the calculation and got totally different system reaction/results. Since I am no structural engineer, I can't make sure the model is correct though. I have attached the calculation below
thanks
