Intergraph CAESAR II 2016 Better Pipe Stress Analysis

Ensuring a plant’s piping systems adhere to international codes and standards plays an integral role in keeping a plant operational. Intergraph CAESAR II software makes it easy to input and display all the data needed to accurately define a piping system analysis model.

As the industry standard for pipe stress analysis, CAESAR II evaluates the structural responses and stresses of piping systems to international codes and standards.

CAESAR II can leverage FEATools, from Paulin Research Group (PRG), to add finite element analysis capabilities to users’ CAESAR II jobs, to include more accurate stress intensification factors (SIFs) and flexibility factors (K factors) in their analysis. With this release, FEATools is now accessible through a dedicated toolbar menu.

Likewise, links to NozzlePRO, also from PRG, allows users to compare multiple file results, assess the sensitivity of model elements, and evaluate nozzle/branch connections with CAESAR II.
Capabilities of CAESAR II include:

• Static and Dynamic Analysis
• Bi-directional Links to Intergraph Smart 3D and CADWorx Plant Professional
• Intuitive Analysis Model Creation
• Design Tools and Wizards
