Specification of loading combination to be taken into account in pipeline calculations (Input Table)
Data description/conditions:
IDENT:
Name for loading combination
None / Required
GLOADF:
General load factor applicable to all load components
> 0.
[Default: 1.]
PRESS-F:
Specific load factor for 'PRESS' load component
[Default: 1.15]
T-DIF-F:
Specific load factor for 'TEMP' load component
[Default: 1.10]
DEADW-F:
Specific load factor for 'DEADW' load component
[Default: 1.10]
SETL-F:
Specific load factor for 'SETX/y/z' and 'SUBSIDE' load components
[Default: 1.10]
NODAL-F:
Specific load factor for 'NODALL' load component
[Default: 1.10]
ELBND-F:
Specific load factor for elastic bends
[Default: 1.10]
(If 0., bends are assumed to be non-elastic even when specified as elastic in table POLYDIF. If > 0., elastic bends must have been specified in table POLYDIF, moreover, a geometrically non-linear module (N or L) must be present and the pipeline behaviour analysis must be geometrically non-linear (GEO-NLN), if not, a function error will occur.)
WAVC-F:
Specific load factor for 'WAVE' load component
[Default: 1.20]
Condition for all (specific) component load factors: undefined or ≥ 0. and at least 1 component must be non-zero.
If a component load factor is > 0., a corresponding non-zero load component must have been specified in the previous functions.
A component load factor may only be undefined when the accompanying load component is not provided.
This table is a single-row data table, meaning it is limited to holding only one row of data (Max/Min: 1/1 rows).
