Pipe Stress Analysis

Addison now have the ability to perform pipe stress analysis in-house utilising the latest CEASAR II software.

CAESAR II is the market leading software for pipe stressing. It uses beam theory to evaluate piping systems and plants to international standards. CAESAR II does not use the conventional FEA Analysis that many stress packages use, but instead uses stick models comprising of elements connected by nodes. CAESAR II uses computational codes from inputted data to determine whether a particular pipe network, vessel or plant will pass or fail during operation.

CAESAR II uses three load cases to determine the feasibility of a system.

Sustained Loads: Those due to forces present during normal operation.
Occasional Loads: Those present during rare intervals of operations.
Displacement Loads: Those due to displacement of pipe.

This capability, twinned with our general mechanical and specifically piping design expertise and experience, now means that Addison can be your complete piping design solution.

Pressure Relief – Requirements & Equipment Sizing

Addison Project has a multidiscipline team specialising in the assessment of pressure relief requirements. With over 30 years experience of solving real pressure relief challenges across a wide variety of industries, our team has unrivalled knowledge and understanding of the field.

Pressure relief is about cost effective and pragmatic risk management. Design and installation forms only a small part of the overall cost of a pressure relief system; the largest cost element is the effective inspection and maintenance of that relief system.At Addison, we consider the whole life cycle cost- not just the design. By ensuring the design is right, significant cost savings are made through reduced operating costs and the elimination of potentially expensive failures.Our low overheads and flexible working arrangements allow us to provide a cost effective and safe solution to your problem. This will be carried out on time, to your requirements and within budget. We can undertake pressure relief work on a fixed price basis, rate basis or target cost basis, regardless of size.
