Hello Mangesh, Please see AutoPIPE help for "Point/Member Static Earthquake Scale Factor": (Click on image above to make larger) To answer your questions above: Q!. How to input different seismic coefficient for different segments of system in one autopipe file? Answer: Insert your Static Seismic loads (Eq1, E2, E3..)as required in your mode. Then Insert "Point/Member Static Earthquake Scale Factor" for node points that require localized scaling of the static seismic loads in the piping model Q2. By template under Loads/Static Earth quake or Insert / Xtra data /Member static earthquake factor or point static earth factor? Answer: I think that you are asking if you should use Member or Point command. See help section above to answer this question. Q3. The values in Loads/ Static earth quake are getting applied same through out the system. (E1, E2,E3,E4 etc..) Answer: Correct, the same Point / Member factors will be applied all Static Seismic load case. Q4. How to use insert /Xtra data ?Does the XYZ factor have any relation with E1, E2, E3, E4 etc? Answer: Yes, the relation is that the Point / Member factor direction is multiplied by the respective Static Seismic direction. Example for each node point with a Member / Point factor: Static seismic = E1 X(g)=1, Y(g)=2, Z(g)=3 Member / Point factor = X:4, Y:5, Z:6 Results: Seismic load E1 X(g)=1x4 Y(g)=2x5 Z(g)=3x6 total E1 X(g)=4 Y(g)=10 Z(g)=18 Regards, Mike Dattilio Bentley Product Advantage Group Analyst AutoPIPE Product Line Bentley Systems, Inc. =================================================== AutoPIPE On-Demand Training – CLICK HERE YouTube - Bentley Pipe Stress - Subscribe Linked IN – CLICK HERE ===================================================
