This checklist is used to verify the stress analysis of a piping system. It contains 36 checkpoints to confirm aspects of the piping design model, analysis parameters, load cases, results and optimization. Key items include verifying the piping model matches design drawings, boundary conditions are applied correctly, stress levels meet code limits under various operating conditions, equipment is properly supported, and the support system can be further optimized. The checklist aims to ensure a thorough and code-compliant stress analysis was performed on the piping system.

Sl. Checkpoints Status (Tick Remarks
No. if Confirmed) 1 Does the current model in Piping Designer of the analyzed system match with Caesar model. (Check the dimensions, Location of heavy masses and supports) 2 Does the Co-ordinate match of PDS model and Caesar model? 3 Is Kaux setting, Unit File, Configuration Setting, Hanger Set Up, Special Execution Parameters appropriate? 4 Is Pipe Diameter, Wall Thickness, Insulation, Mill tolerance, Corrosion Allowance, Insulation Density, Fluid density, Design Parameters, Pipe Material, Allowable Stress (From code), Elastic Modulus [Hot/cold] (From code), Thermal Expansion (From Code), Bend Radius, Wind Sp. 5 Is Boundary Condition, Initial Displacement sufficient?(Values Converted to Caesar Axis) 6 Is Wind Speed/pressure, Wind Direction, basis of Wind direction appropriate? 7 Is seismic acceleration Input Basis, Is Occasional Load Factor appropriate, Comparison with Civil design basis proper? 8 Stress Intensification Factor of components. 9 Bending Allowance for Bends Specified. 10 For ID based is pipe allowance on minimum thickness added? 11 Load Case Buildup for different operating modes. 12 Is deflection of Piping System under Sustained Loading sufficient?(<5mm ) 13 Is the Pipe Lifting up in Sustained loading? If Yes adjust nearby Hanger loads. 14 Stress in Piping System for different Loading Condition (With Cold/Hot Modulus of Elasticity)? 15 Expansion of Piping System in Different Operating Condition. 16 Is sufficient Clearance available for pipe to Expand? 17 Deflection of Piping System under Occasional Loading.

19 Restraint Loads on the connection Equipments
(Should be within manufacturer's allowable limits). In case the load exceeds has an agreement been reached with Equipment manufacturer. 20 Restraint point loads (<= 60 - 80KN depending on Pipe Size). 21 Is Spring Hanger Type Selection correct? 22 Are all hanger selection justifiable for their vertical displacement? 23 Can the number of Constant hangers be further optimized? 24 Can the support arrangement be further optimized? 25 Is the Turbine Nozzle Floated in? 26 Are the major Equipments (Bypass Valves, Condenser etc.) floated? 27 Are Valves, Heavy masses properly Guided? 28 Piping System Checked for Soil Settlement? 29 Can Number of snubbers be further optimized? 30 For vertical Pipe Run are the hangers located properly to ensure pipe stability? 31 Has the Hydro test Load been Analyzed. (All Hangers Locked)? 32 Has the Acid Cleaning case been Analyzed. (Selected Hangers Locked)? 33 Are any uni-direction restraints used in model, Check for Earth Quake Loading? 34 Are hangers loads at a uniform level? 35 Is the live load (snow, Ice load),if required, considered? 36 Is hanger overstressing the piping System?
