Thickness Reference (tref) in SACS Built-in S-N Curve

Dear Sir,

Do we have any command to change thickness reference in built-in S-N curve in SACS?

For example,

Thickness reference for tubular connection should be 32mm for DNVGL-RP-0005 (2014) S-N "T" Curve.

However, SACS used tref = 25mm for this curve which will provide too conservative fatigue output.

Currently, I have to manually key-in S-N curve by myself. This have a problem as I have to create two S-N for both underwater and air which make me 2 fatigue runs.

If you have any command to override this thickness reference of SACS built-in S-N, please kindly help to let me know.

If we cannot override this tref, please kindly put this issue into your future development.

Regards,

Kasiphon
