EARLIER Q: Why is it when I do my code check, with the command “beam code -summary 1 1e30 0 1” there are 3 member reported to be overstressed, but when I do the pictures for member IR > 1.0, the plots show more than 3? REV 5.08 A: Actually, your statements…

EARLIER Q: Do the API ratios obtained during a hydrostatic collapse check on a beam include the Safety Factors defined by the API for Axial and Hoop stresses (1.67 and 2.0)? REV 7.00 A: Of course they include the safety factors - without them it would…

EARLIER Q: Are the "Stress Cycles" reported with "counting" peak to trough values or amplitudes? REV 7.06 A: These results are the exception to the rule that nothing in MOSES is peak to trough. Stress Cycles are peak to trough to be consistent with…

Q: Can I color a picture according to stress ratio? REV 7.01 A: Yes, use the option -COLOR STRESS
