Problem: Disconnected Main Steam Piping & Structural design = Dynamic Seismic Phasing Issues, grossly inaccurate
Structural flexibility and large pipe support loads
Solution: Coupled Structure & piping gave reduced seismic loads at Turbine, more
accurate pipe support design, greater confidence in static & dynamic analysis design
Conclusion
Coupled Model Provides a more Realistic Load

Problem: The system was designed with Caesar without the structure and after Start-Up the pumps failed. In the model
without structure there is No Overstress
Re-Modeled in AutoPIPE with Structure from STAAD confirmed the Piping system is overstressed and Pump loads too high.
Output header also has primary overstress when the supports that lift-off are removed.

140% Overstress Under
