Procedure using Caesar II
Pipe parameters like temperature. Additionally you need the following soil parameters from civil department (geo-technology department) for creation of soil model. fluid density etc.whatispiping.feedburner. After you complete your model. Refer Fig 1.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/TypicalCaesar-II-system-for-underground-piping-analysis.whatispiping.com/whatis (http://www. The stress system consists of 24 inch CS pipe connected to tank.whatispiping.

Create a distinct node at all the junction points of underground and above ground piping. close and then enter the buried model by clicking the Underground Pipe modeler button as shown in Fig. save it. Modelling of the system: Model the piping system from isometrics/GA drawings using the pipe parameters. pressure. Let’s take an example of a typical system for easy understanding. thickness.jpg) Fig.
You have two options to select as soil model type. We will use Caesar II basic model for this article. 4. and downward stiffnesses. You will find all your input node numbers listed there.jpg) Fig.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Opening-theunderground-pipe-modeller.3: Underground Soil modeler input screen Now your task is to create the soil model and input data received from civil.. 3) will open. You can enter up to 15 different soil model numbers in any one buried pipe job.3) you will get the window where you have to enter the data. lateral. The soil model number is used in the buried element descriptions to tell CAESAR II in what type of soil the pipe is buried.Fig. If you require to add more . starting with the number 2.2: Opening the underground pipe modeler.1: Typical Caesar II system for underground piping analysis (http://www. (http://www.whatispiping. So select Caesar II Basic model. On clicking Soil Models button (Highlighted in Fig. Input the parameters as shown in Fig. Each set of soil properties is identified by a unique soil model number.whatispiping. The modeler uses the values that you define to compute axial. Once you click on the underground pipe modeler the following screen (Fig. along with ultimate loads.com/wpcontent/uploads/2014/09/Underground-Soil-modeller-input-screen. upward.jpg) Fig. Americal Lifelines alliance and caesar II Basic Model.
If you enter 1. 5 for example.whatispiping. Leave undrained sheer strength field blank. If entered the thermal strain is used to compute the theoretical “virtual anchor length”.com/wpcontent/uploads/2014/09/Caesar-II-Basic-Soil-Model.jpg) Fig. (http://www.soil models simply click on add new soil model. Yield displacement factor and thermal expansion co-efficient will automatically be filled by default. After all data has been entered click on ok button. . However. After all aboveground and underground parts along with proper soil model number are defined click on convert button and Caesar II will create the underground model. the element is not buried. Refer Fig. the software points to a CAESAR II soil restraint model generated using the equations outlined in Soil Models of Caesar II. If you enter a number greater than 1. You need to input all other fields. (preferable do not use 1). defining a value for TEMPERATURE CHANGE is optional. then specify the buried soil stiffness’s per length basis in column 6 through 13.4: Caesar II Basic Soil Model Now inform Caesar II about the underground and above ground parts by selecting the nodes and defining proper soil model number. Overburden compaction factor. If you enter 0 as soil model number.
if the original job is named System1. .6 to check the buried model of the system shown in Fig. By default. Refer Fig.whatispiping. Caesar II appends the name of the job with the letter B.5: Buried Model Input Spreadsheet in Caesar II When underground model conversion is over you will get the buried model. If the default name is not appropriate.jpg) Fig. Now open the file (original file appended by B) and perform static analysis in the same conventional way and qualify the system from code requirements. For example. the software saves the second input file with the name System1B. These stiffness values depend on the distance between the nodes. In the buried part Caesar II models bi-linear restraints with stiffness values which the software calculates while conversion into buried model. you can rename the buried job.1.(http://www.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/BuriedModel-Input-Spreadsheet-in-Caesar-II.

Must have Load cases for stress analysis of a typical piping system using Caesar II (http://www. if it exists.1 Few Important points to keep in mind: Typical values of friction angle are as follows: o Clay – 0 o Silt – 26-25 o Sand – 27-45 Typical friction coefficient values are: o Silt – 0.jpg) Fig. Caesar II removes the density from the buried part model while converting into buried model. During the process of creating the buried model. However this number can be reduced depending on the degree of compaction of the backfill. the Caesar II software saves the soil data in a file with the extension SOI. Backfill efficiency can be approximated using the proctor number.5 o Gravel – 0.4 o Sand – 0.whatispiping.whatispiping. The buried job. the modeler removes any restraints in the buried section. defined in most soils text books. Standard practice is to multiple the proctor number by 8 and use the result as the compaction multiplier.(http://www.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Buriedmodel-of-the-system-shown-in-Fig. Related Posts: 1. Static Method of Seismic Analysis of Piping System using Caesar II (http://www.com/seismic) .6 o Clay – 0. It is the buried job that is eventually run to compute displacements and stresses.1.6: Buried model of the system shown in Fig. Any additional restraints in the buried section can be entered in the resulting buried model. After entering data in soil model when you click ok.6 The default value of overburden compaction multiplier is 8.
