Hi all;
i have a confusion weather i am doing right or wrong so i need some advice from seniors
if my pipe is along X-axis, vertical is Y axis. if my pipe is lying on steel structure with u bolts, i am using straint as
both y ( +,-)
z (+,-)
am i right and do i need to change stiffness value from 1.0E12 to any other in case of u bolt?
Hello Muhammad-Sami,
The designation of Vertical Axis is interchangeable between Y & Z, always make sure that you have the right designation for your Vertical axis.
I would normally use GUIDE instead of z(+,-) for simplicity, if both sides are having the same gaps or properties. It is very convenient and to use especially for horizontally skewed lines.
I hope this helps...
