Indicates whether the software reduces the Operating Range Allowable value by 15%. Appendix P in the 2010 Edition of B31.3 requires a reduction of the Operating Range Allowable value by 15% for materials with ratio of Sy/St > 0.8. The software selects this check box by default for the B31.3 code. When selected, CAESAR II performs this reduction, when applicable.

  • You must set the Implement Appendix P configuration setting to True for CAESAR II to display this check box on the Allowable Stresses tab of the Classic Piping Input dialog box. You can find this configuration setting in the SIFs and Stresses > B31.3 Code-Specific Settings section of the Configuration Editor.

  • This option is not used for B31.3 Chapter IX.
