I have to analyse steam piping for steam turbine. Some part of piping is vendor's responsibility (up to first shut-off valve). They have specified displacements at the locations, but no allowables loads are available at presentIs it Ok to consider these valve outlets as anchors with specified displacements or shall I model the piping up to turbine shell and ask the vendor for the displacements at the shell nozzles and also the allowable forces and moments.
Thanks for the suggestions
