Michael,

I agree with your advice, but unfortunately that is not an option for this model. The program will not let me delete any elements in the Allowables list to let propagation work since the piping model was not originally created in CAESAR. I would still have to go through and delete the allowable stress definitions for each individual element. I am stuck with either deleting 1000 fields or modifying 1000 fields, unfortunately. I appreciate your input though!
