CAESAR II to AVEVA E3D™ : Create a Report File

From the menu bar in CAESAR II, select Home > Open.

Select the appropriate piping input file (*.C2) or(*._A) and select Open.

This file should now be ready to be stressed and has been error checked in CAESAR II. From the menu bar, select Home > Static. The Static Output Processor window is displayed.

Select one or more Load Cases under Load Cases Analysed. For information on editing Load Cases, refer to the product documentation for CAESAR II.

Select Displacements under Report Options which will output translations and rotations for each node. Other report options may be selected too, but are not passed back into AVEVA E3D™.

Note:

It is important to select the 132 column report option under Miscellaneous Options rather than the standard 80 column report, otherwise the Pipe Stress Interface application might encounter problems reading back the data.

Note:

Do not add the optional two title lines in CAESAR II for similar reasons as above.

Click File > Save.
