Hello!

Regarding above subject, I just wonder which force between Restraint summary and Global element force shall be aplied for loading data in LNG terminal plant.
In normal operating case, the Rstraint summary is correct but when LNG is flowing into the large pipe slowly, the Global element force is more conservative i.e. at anachor point, friction force is counterbalanced from each side for Restrain summary but, friction force is considered either larger one of them, upstream and downstream for Global element force

I would like that someone verify the above approach and advise me whcih loading data I have to consider.

Best regards,
