What's New in CAESAR IIThe latest CAESAR II release delivers a number of significant new and extended capabilities inresponse to current market requirements, as well as direct feedback from the growing CAESARII user community. The following changes have been made to CAESAR II:CAESAR II 2013 R1, Version 6.10 Updated piping code information for ASME B31.1, B31.3, B31.8, B31.9, and Z662 codes. Enhanced and improved the Smart 3D to CAESAR II interface (PCF). (This is also availablein Version 5.31.) Introduced a faster, interactive, on-demand and flexible PCF interface, called AdvancedPCF (APCF) Import, into the Piping Input processor. From the APCF Import dialog box,you can quickly import the model from design software, such as Intergraph's SmartPlant 3D,saving time while reducing errors. (APCF Import is also available in Version 5.31.)CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide5
What's New in CAESAR II6 Added the import of the SmartPlant 3D (S3D)/SmartPlant Review (SPR) graphicenvironment (VUE file), along with filtering capabilities within CAESAR II input to providecontext to the pipe stress analyst. You can also generate this VUE file from SmartPlantReview. Updated the CAESAR II Data Export Wizard to support ODBC Microsoft Access format,which facilitates round-trip results to S3D and SPR. Added an option to store a revision number and line numbers. Added a new Restraint Summary output report. Included new functionality so you can send a user Load Case name, if specified. Implemented other enhancements to simplify the process for generating the database. Added new element order commands for block operations: invert and change sequence. Invertreverses the order of one or more elements in a selected group, as well asthe node numbering. Change Sequencemoves (or rearranges) the sequence of one or more blocks ofelements to another location in the CAESAR II model. Added usability improvements to reduce the input and editing time. Enhanced line numbers with a Renumberoperation that lets you select a group ofnodes on which to perform block operations. Added functionality that lets you renumber when you select elements on the graphicalmodel. Added functionality that lets you renumber boundary nodes after using the Renumberoperation. Enhanced the graphical model with an option to retain the colors for line numbersacross user sessions on a per-job basis. Included the ability to deselect a window by using the SHIFT CLICK window selection. Added ability to edit or delete annotations on the input and output graphics. Increased performance and functionality with enhancements. Updated the personal Isogen module to Personal ISOGEN 2012 R1 (8.1). Updated the CAESAR II 3D Graphics engine. Continued standardization for development using ASME NQA-1.CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide
What's New in CAESAR II Implemented Japanese localization in the following areas: Translated the user interface (Static Analysis module) and selected documentation inJapanese. Added Japanese seismic code, KHK Level 1. Added spring hanger databases for Mitsubishi, Yamashita, Sanwa Tekki, and Techno. Updated and enhanced documentation to include more context-sensitive (F1) help andadditional task-oriented information. Updated the CAESAR II main menu to use the Office 2010 ribbon interface.Technical ChangesThe following list details changes to CAESAR II 2013 R1 (Version 6.10), which may affect thenumeric results: Rewrote the methodology used by the Piping Error checker (PIERCK.EXE) in determiningduplicated allowable stress data for the elements. (Distributed in CAESAR II 2011 R1Version 5.30.02, 110830 build.) Corrected the calculation of the bending stress at the From end of elements for PD 8010-2(to use the SIF for the From end instead of the To end). (Distributed in CAESAR II 2011 R1Version 5.30.02, 110830 build.) Corrected the usage of the in-plane/out-of-plane SIF configuration setting for CODETIbends. (Distributed in CAESAR II 2011 R1 Version 5.30.04, 120525 build.) Corrected the PD 8010-2 equivalent stress calculation to consider both positive andnegative bending effects. (Distributed in CAE
CAESAR II is an advanced tool for designing and analyzing piping systems using input forms, on-line help, graphics, and extensive error detection. CAESAR II statically and dynamically analyzes large piping models, structural steel models, or combined models. ASME, B31, WRC, and rotating equipment reports are created to provide a
