CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide Version 5.10 The CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide is intended to aid users in quickly identifying needed information and to resolve common questions and problems. This Reference Guide is distributed with each copy of the software and users are urged to copy the Reference Guide as necessary. Comments and suggestions concerning CAESAR II, the User Guide, or the Quick Reference Guide are always welcome. Users with problems, questions, or suggestions can contact the COADE Development/Support staff at: techsupport@coade.com.

CAESAR II Software
CAESAR II is an advanced PC based tool for the engineer who designs or analyzes piping systems. CAESAR II uses input spreadsheets, on-line help, graphics, and
extensive error detection procedures to facilitate timely operation and solution. CAESAR II is capable of analyzing large piping models, structural steel models, or combined models, both statically and dynamically. ASME, B31, WRC, and rotating equipment reports combine to provide the analyst with a complete description of the piping systems behavior under the applied loading conditions. Additional technical capabilities such as out-of-core solvers, force spectrum analysis (for water hammer and relief valve solutions), time history, and large rotation rod hangers provide the pipe stress engineer with the most advanced computer based piping program available today. CAESAR II is continuously enhanced to incorporate new technical abilities, to provide additional functionality, and to modify existing computation procedures as the piping codes are updated. A complete list of the most recent changes to CAESAR II can be found in the Chapter 1 of the User Guide. Users wanting software sales are urged to contact the COADE Sales staff at:

office and covers five days of Statics. Twice yearly we also cover five days of Statics and three days of Dynamics. These seminars emphasize the piping codes, static analysis, dynamic analysis, and problem solving. Custom seminars held at client locations are also available. For additional seminar details, please contact the COADE Support staff at: seminars @coade.com.
System Requirements
CAESAR II requires Windows 2000, or Windows XP Professional, with a
minimum graphic card capability of 1024x768 resolution. However, for more efficient usage of the software, higher graphics resolutions are necessary. Usually any hardware capable of running these operating systems will be sufficient to run CAESAR II. For effective use of CAESAR II, COADE recommends as a minimum configuration:
2+ Ghz processor 1+ Gbytes of RAM 1280x1024 graphics resolution or better 256+ Mbytes of video RAM Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional Please note that Windows XP Home Edition, Windows Vista Professional and Windows Vista Home Edition are not supported.
Troubleshooting For troubleshooting and problem solving issues, refer to the CAESAR II Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) located on the COADE Website. To access the FAQ: (http://www.coade.com/product_faq.asp?varflag=CAESARII&varflagmaster=). CAESAR II Interfaces There are several external interfaces which allow data transfer between CAESAR II and other software packages. Users can access these interfaces via the Tools menu on the CAESAR II Main Menu.
CADWorx requires AUTOCAD
DXF Output mainframe mainframe requires AUTOCAD mainframe mainframe Alias format
Users interested in these interfaces should contact COADE for further information. We anticipate other interfaces in the future keep users updated via the newsletter or revised documentation.

In addition CAESAR II supports material types 18 or 19 for cut short and cut long cold spring elements. Material number 20 activates the CAESAR II Orthotropic Material Model (i.e., Fiber-glass reinforced plastic pipe); the default coefficient of expansion is 12.0 E-6 in./in./F. Material 21 indicates user-defined properties. Material numbers over 100 are from the Material Database and include the allowable stress and other piping code data.

Code Stresses Listed below are the Code Stress equations for the actual and allowable stresses used by CAESAR II. For the listed codes, the actual stress is defined by the left hand side of the equation and the allowable stress is defined by the right hand side. The CAESAR II load case label is also listed after the equation. Typically the load case recommendations made by CAESAR II are sufficient for code compliance. However, CAESAR II does not recommend occasional load cases. Occasional loads are unknown in origin and must be specified by the user. US Codes

CAESAR II Quality Assurance Manual The CAESAR II Quality Assurance Manual is intended to serve as a publicly available verification document. This manual discusses (briefly) the current industry QA standards, the COADE QA standard, a series of benchmark jobs, and instructions for users implementing QA procedures on their own hardware. The benchmark jobs consist of comparisons to published data by ASME and the NRC. Additional test jobs compare CAESAR II results to other industry programs. For additional information on the Quality Assurance Manual, please contact the sales department at sales@coade.com. Mechanical Engineering News As an aid to the users of COADE software products, COADE publishes Mechanical Engineering News several times a year. This publication contains discussions on recent developments that affect users, and technical features illustrating modeling techniques and software applications. This newsletter is sent to all users of COADE software at the time of publication. Back issues can be acquired by contacting the COADE sales staff. Additional COADE Software Programs
CADWorx Plant - An AutoCAD based plant design/drafting program with a bidirectional data transfer link to CAESAR II. CADWorx allows models to be created in ortho, iso, 2D or 3D modes. CADWorx template specifications, contained with
built in auto routing, auto iso, stress iso, auto dimensioning, complete libraries, center of gravity calculations, and bill of materials, provides the most complete plant design package to designers. CodeCalc - A program for the design or analysis of pressure vessel components. CodeCalc capabilities include: analysis of tubesheets, rectangular vessels, flanges, nozzles, Zick Analysis, and the standard internal/external thickness and pressure computations on heads, shells, and cones. API 579 calculations are also included. PV Elite - A comprehensive program for the design or analysis of vertical and horizontal vessels. Pressure Vessel Codes include ASME VIII-1 and VIII-2, PD:5500 and EN-13445. PVElite includes all of the CodeCalc functionality. TANK - A program for the design or rerating of API-650/653 storage tanks. The program includes API 650 Appendices A, E, F, M, P, and S, as well as API 653 Appendix B. Computations address: winds girders, conical roof design, allowed fluid heights, and remaining corrosion allowance.
