Is there anyway to input a user created sustained stress index for in-plane and out of plane? You can for sustained axial and torsion sifs using xtra data but not sustained inplane and out of plane. Overriding the in plane and out of plane sif's does so for both the operating and sustained cases. FYI I am using Autopipe 10.01.00.08 and B31.3 2014.
Hello Kevin,
Select Insert> Xtra Data> Joint Type & User SIF> when the dialog appears press the Help button to see details on this dialog. Here you will see what fields are available based on which Joint End type has been selected and piping code used in the current model.
See image below with all SIF related fields available for user input:
