We will be doing some large bore pipework soon.
By large bore i mean 18-42"
I am wondering what exactly, are the limitations Caesar has, and how to work round them.
I suspect that as the d/t ratio approaches 100 and the fixed beam theory breaks down, then some other form of analysis is required.
I would also suspect that FEA is nessesary for satisfactory support design, include pipe wall loadings.
anybody?
