What's New in CAESAR II
The latest CAESAR II release delivers a number of significant new and extended capabilities in
response to current market requirements, as well as direct feedback from the growing CAESAR
II user community. The following changes have been made to CAESAR II:
CAESAR II 2016, Version 8.00
Technical Changes
The following technical changes for this release may affect the numeric results:
Updated the calculations for jobs using the B31.3 2012 code standard to use the Axial SIF
(ia) value for any non-bend elements, unless you do not specify an Axial SIF (ia) value.
When you leave the Axial SIF (ia) value blank, the software uses the Out-Plane SIF (io)
value. (DM-TX-13192)
Revised the calculations for wind loads using ASCE 2010 or IBC 2012 to include a 0.6 factor
when setting up load cases. Refer to each wind code standard, and ensure the wind speed
is in accordance with the specified wind design code. (CR-TX-10344)
Corrected the B31.1/B31.3 Verified Welding/Contour Tees configuration setting to only
apply this constant for tee flexibilities with B31.1 and B31.3 jobs and not jobs specified for
EN-13480. (TR-TX-13501)
Revised the allowable stress values in the materials file, cmat.BIN, for materials with ASME
B31.3 2012 allowable stress values. (DI-TX-13619)
Corrected calculations for sand/gravel soil models using the American Lifetime Alliance
(ALA) model type when the height/diameter ratio exceeds the valid range of the ALA
equations. The software now limits the height/diameter ratio to less than or equal to 20 for
yield loads at 40- to 45-degree angles. In addition, to prevent negative coefficient values,
CAESAR II now calculates the coefficient value e for 40- to 45-degree angles as a positive
value, which is different from the code standard. (TR-TX-14465)
Piping Code Updates

ASME B31.1, 2014 Edition (CR-TX-10720, DI-TX-13119)
ASME B31.3, 2014 Edition (CR-TX-10721), including the following changes:
Updated the software to support a new support condition for static load cases, called an
alternate load case. The B31.3 2014 code edition merged the previous Appendix P from
the code into the main body of the standard. This appendix addressed systems where
supports are active in some conditions and inactive in others. CAESAR II was modified
to address these additional sustained conditions using the alternate support condition,
which included adding the Alternate SUS/OCC check box on the Static Analysis -
Load Case Editor. For more information, see Understanding Alternate Sustained (SUS)
and Alternate Occasional (OCC) Load Cases in the CAESAR II User's Guide or the
Help. (DI-TX-13679)
Revised the software to handle alternative sustained or occasional load cases in the
static solver and stiffness matrix, including for linear and nonlinear jobs and more
complex load cases. (CR-TX-13680, CR-TX-13838)

Updated materials, including changes to expansion coefficients (Ec), weld reduction

factors (W), and elastic modulus (EM) values. Updated allowable stress values for
material 341 (A789 S32750) and 342 (A790 S32750). Corrected low temperature
allowable values to match the code standard. (DI-TX-13120, DI-TX-13800,
DI-TX-13801)
Moved the B31.3 Implement Appendix P configuration setting from SIFs and Stresses
> Code Specific Settings to SIFs and Stresses > Legacy Settings as the appendix
was merged into the body of the B31.3 code standard.
Added a note in the restraints output reports to explain that, when you are using an
alternate SUS or OCC load case, the software reports no values on the restraints
reports.
Added several warnings and notes to the error checking module to alert you to special
conditions regarding the Appendix P configuration setting, cold spring values in piping
input, and minimum wall thickness calculation issues. (DI-TX-13677)
ASME B31.5, 2013 Edition
ASME B31.8, 2014 Edition, including a small revision to the biaxial state of stress formula
(Sc), according to code Paragraph 833.4. You can find this formula in the CAESAR II Quick
Reference Guide. (CR-TX-11871, DI-TX-13125, DI-TX-13651)
ASME B31.9, 2014 Edition (CR-TX-10723, DI-TX-13441)
Wind/Seismic Code Updates

NBC Seismic Code Standard, 2010 Edition (CR-TX-13497)
NBC Wind Code Standard, 2010 Edition, including adding the NBC-2010 option in the
Select Wind Code or Profile box on the Wind Loads tab of the Static Analysis - Load
Case Editor dialog box, and ensuring that NBC 2010 data appears on the Miscellaneous
Data results in the output reports. (CR-TX-11109, CR-TX-11110)
ASCE 7 2010, 2nd Edition and IBC 2012 Edition wind code standards, including a change in
the wind load reduction factor. You must now enter a 0.6 wind design factor in wind load
values. (CR-TX-10344)
Equipment Code Updates

API 560, 4th Edition (CR-TX-11947, CR-TX-13176)
Piping Input/Hanger Support

Added hanger data for the following hanger manufacturers: Hesterberg, Unison, Spring
Supports Mfg. Co., Senior, and Wookwang. Also, revised the listing of the manufacturer
formerly known as Flexider, to CASTIM 2000. (CR-TX-13017, CR-TX-3923, CR-TX-5071,
CR-TX-10192, CR-TX-10625, CR-TX-10879, CR-TX-13027)
Improved the Classic Piping Input to display a Pressure 3 value on the interface.
Previously, this third pressure value was only accessible by clicking >> to open the

extended dialog box. Now, you can enter three sets of temperatures and pressures without
having to open a separate dialog box. (CR-TX-10336)
Finite Element Analysis (FEA)

You can now access third-party tools for better modeling and evaluation from the
CAESAR II main menu. Send your CAESAR II job to be translated through FEATools to
generate more accurate SIFs and K factors. Compare multiple file results, assess the
sensitivity of your model elements, and evaluate nozzle/branch connections with
NozzlePRO. (CR-TX-14467)
Load Case Editor

Redesigned the Static Analysis - Load Case Editor to improve the user's experience and
add more robust functionality when creating and revising load cases for analysis.
(CR-TX-11962, DI-TX-13169, DI-TX-13171, DI-TX-13172, DI-TX-13173, DI-TX-13174,
DI-TX-13594, DI-TX-13710, DI-TX-13825, DI-TX-14484, DI-TX-13843, DI-TX-14472,
DI-TX-14806, DI-TX-14807)
Changes included the following features:
Removed the Load Case Options tab and merged all options to one List view.
Improved and enhanced the List view Easier scrolling and viewing options, as well as
filtering on columns, drag-and-drop capabilities, and easier manipulation of load cases.
Added a Group Edit view - select and change values on multiple load cases
simultaneously.
Improved the organization and groupings of inputs on the Wind Loads and Wave
Loads tabs to boost the usability.
Updated user documentation.
Added two new load case templates (.tpls) for the software to use when recommending load
cases. You can specify which template the software uses in the Configuration Editor. You
can now set CAESAR II to recommend load cases for the LOAD_EXP.TPL (includes all
expansion load cases) and the LOAD_ALT.TPL (includes all expansion and alternate
SUS/OCC load cases for all available piping codes, except IGE/TD/12). In addition, resolved
an issue where the software was not acquiring the HGR stress type for the first load case
when it applied recommend load cases for jobs with hanger design and multiple
temperatures. (DI-TX-13678)
Distance Measurements
Added functionality so you can minimize the dialog box while remaining in measuring mode
in the piping input. Perform multiple measurements around a model continually without the
dialog box blocking any of the model. When you exit the dialog box, the software exits the
distance mode and returns you to the previous operator. Also, revised the layout to improve
the usability of the dialog box, improved snapping in the Line Drawing (single line) mode,
and increased the default font size setting for distance measurement labels on the model for
ease of reading. (CR-TX-10373)
Updated the Snap To Nearest Node functionality when measuring from piping elements to
other DWG objects, such as imported CADWorx models. (CR-TX-5973)
Added the ability to measure multiple distances in the Distance dialog box and see all of
your measurements simultaneously. Press CTRL + click while measuring distances along a

line of pipe, and the software retains and displays all the measurements you have made.
(CR-TX-10374)
3D Model/Graphics
Added rotation functionality for S3D or SPR graphics (VUE) model when importing it into
CAESAR II using the S3D/SPR Model option in the piping input. You can specify the
degrees in which to rotate the loaded S3D or SPR model from the Load S3D/SPR Model
dialog box. (CR-TX-4531)
Enhanced the S3D/SPR Model functionality so you can now open zipped VUE files (ZVFs)
and Stitched VUE files (SVFs) from the Load S3D/SPR Model dialog box. (CR-TX-8586)
Added the ability to filter by line numbers from the 3D Plot (Options > Graphical Output) in
the Static Output Processor.
Improved modeling with single- and multiple- element right-click menus containing
frequently-used commands.
Select a single element on the model, and right-click to access the Element context
menu. This menu includes typical actions performed on elements, restraints, and rigids
(such as valve/flanges).
Select multiple elements on the model, and right-click to access the Block Operations
context menu. This menu includes lets you perform group operations such as rotate,
delete, duplicate, renumber, and so forth, on a block of elements.
Notice that the software returns the cursor to the next logical action in the piping input
after you select one of the right-click menu options, which improves modeling/piping
input time. (CR-TX-12995, CR-TX-13033)
Added the ability to view only node names on the 3D model by selecting a new option on
Node Number drop-down box in the piping input. The Names Only option applies to
whatever other node numbering option you have selected. For example, if you select to see
Anchors on the model, and you select the Names Only, you see only those anchors with
node names and no anchor node numbers. If you select All, you will see all node names
specified for anchors, hangers, and restraints, but none of the node numbers for those
elements. The software defaults to showing both node names and node numbers.
(CR-TX-1257)
Material Database Updates

Updated materials in accordance with the ASME B31.3 2014 code standard. Updates
included changes to many material properties including:
Expansion coefficient (Exp.Coeff.) values
Weld Strength Reduction Factors (W)
Elastic Modulus material value mappings
Allowable Stress values for material 341 (A789 S32750) and 342 (A790 S32750)
Extended Allowable Stress values for the minimum applicable temperature
(DI-TX-13120)
Updated the materials file, cmat.BIN, located in C:\ProgramData\Intergraph CAS\CAESAR
II\8.00 (on Windows 7). Revised the Allowable Stress values for the many materials in
accordance with the ASME B31.3 2012 code standard. (DI-TX-13619)

User Interface
Updated the look of the CAESAR II splash screen that appears when launching the software
to the latest Intergraph standards. Also, updated the CAESAR II icon to the new Intergraph
style. (DI-TX-13041, DI-TX-13658)
Output Reports
Updated the Output Processor restraint reports to display a note when the job you are
running uses an alternate sustained or occasional load case. In these situations, the
software displays zero values in the restraint reports and notes to the user that the results
are not a valid structural representation of the system. (DI-TX-14506)
Documentation/Help
Updated the CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide with dates and information for all piping
and wind/seismic code editions supported in CAESAR II 2016.
Updated portions of the user documentation to the latest Intergraph PPM standards for
formats, which included adding more white space and indentation for field property formats.
(DI-TX-10490, DI-TX-R3733)
Added a comprehensive glossary of terms to the CAESAR II User's Guide to improve
understanding of the documentation. (DI-TX-10660)
Updated the software to call the .chm-based help when you press F1 on the user interface.
Previously, some of the help was in a text-based dialog box. In addition, moved the help for
the Stress Isometrics module into the main help file for CAESAR II. (CR-TX-3344,
CR-TX-12922, CR-TX-770, CR-TX-3352)

Overview
SECTION 1
Overview
The CAESAR II Quick Reference Guide helps you quickly identify needed information, answer
common questions, and resolve common problems. You can copy it as needed.
CAESAR II is an advanced tool for designing and analyzing piping systems using input forms,
on-line help, graphics, and extensive error detection.
CAESAR II statically and dynamically analyzes large piping models, structural steel models, or
combined models. ASME, B31, WRC, and rotating equipment reports are created to provide a
complete description of piping system behavior under applied loading conditions. Additional
capabilities, such as out-of-core solvers, force spectrum analysis (for water hammer and relief
valve solutions), time history, and large rotation rod hangers provide you with the most
advanced computer-based piping program available today.
CAESAR II is continuously enhanced to add new functionality and to modify existing procedures
as piping codes are updated. For more information on the most recent changes to CAESAR II,
see What's New in CAESAR II (on page 7).

Licensing
SECTION 2
Licensing
CAESAR II supports three types of licensing:
Local External Software Lock (ESL)
Hardware-based licensing using a green USB dongle. A local ESL can be moved
between computers (such as between desktops and laptops).
Network External Software Lock (ESL)
Hardware-based licensing using a red USB dongle. A network ESL is installed on a
computer that is network accessible from the computer, or multiple computers, running
CAESAR II.
License Manager
Software-based licensing using SmartPlant License Manager (SPLM). For more
information, see SmartPlant License Manager Installation (on page 22). Refer to the
SmartPlant License Manager documentation for complete installation and configuration
instructions.
External Software Lock (ESL) Keys

The External Software Lock (ESL) is the security protection method used by Intergraph The
software cannot execute unless an appropriate ESL (green or red USB key) is connected locally
to the computer, or to another computer in the network (red USB key).
The ESL contains the CAESAR II licensing data, and other client-specific information. This
information includes the client company name and user ID number. Additional data may be
stored on the ESL depending on the specific program and the specific client.
There are two different ESL types, local and network. Both types of ESLs are intended to be
attached to the USB ports of the applicable computers. The appropriate ESL(s) are shipped with
your product according to the licensing type purchase.
Local ESLs provide the maximum flexibility in using the software in that they can be moved
between computers (for example, between desktops and laptops).
Network ESLs must be attached to a computer on the network, either a computer or the
server. In order for the network to respond to software requests for the ESL, the NetHASP
License Manager utility must also be running on the computer where the network ESL is
attached.
The HASP drivers for ESL usage can be found in the sub-directory, ASSIDRV, beneath the
analysis products program directory. However, for CADWorx the HASP drivers for ESL usage
can be found in the sub-directory, Utilities. The documentation files in this sub-directory contain
instructions for a variety of networks and operating systems. Note that there are periodic
updates to these ESL drivers and they can be downloaded from the Intergraph Smart Support
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com) website.
Do not connect two locks to the same computer. The software finds the first lock and
returns its code. For example, you have a lock for CAESAR II and CADWorx and plug both into

the same computer. You start CAESAR II, but the software might find the CADWorx lock first
and return an error. If the same computer is going to run more than one Intergraph product, then
contact Intergraph CAS by sending an email to icaslicenserequests@intergraph.com to request
that both products be licensed from the same lock.
ESL Installation
The following topics explain how to install the different hardware locks supported by CAESAR II.
What do you want to do?

Install a local lock (on page 19)
Install a network lock (on page 19)
Install a local lock

1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. If you are installing CAESAR II, PV Elite, or TANK, navigate to c:\Program Files\Intergraph
CAS\Product\Assidrv and double-click HASPUserSetup.exe.
-OR-
If you are installing CADWorx, navigate to C:\CADWorx Version\Utilities and double-click
HaspHLDriverSetup.exe
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the driver.
Install a network lock

The following list details general information about red network ESLs.
The red network ESL should be set up by a Network Administrator or someone familiar with
Windows-based networks. If you are not familiar with concepts such as network protocols,
broadcast, IP addresses, TCP, UDP, and Windows Services, please do not attempt to setup
the red network ESL.
The red network ESL does not have to be attached to the network server. We recommend
attaching the red network ESL to a computer that is always up and running, can be
re-booted without impact to users, and is not the primary computer for any user on the
network.
If you install an Intergraph CAS product on a network drive for multiple users to access,
assign read/write privileges for all users to the [Product Folder]\System folder. Intergraph
CAS applications write temporary files to the [Product Folder]\System folder that pertains to
the installation. The [Product Folder]\System folder also needs to have read/write privileges
for all users.
If you are using other network protocols, such as NetBIOS or IPX, check the SafeNet web
site for instructions. The only protocol tested with Intergraph CAS products is TCP/IP.

Licensing
The information provided in the analysis products Help file is a supplement to the NetHasp
User's Guide, which is delivered as a PDF(_NETHASP.pdf) in Assidrv folder. CADWorx
delivers this _NETHASP.pdf in the Utilities folder. Review the PDF file for any issues not
addressed in the Help file.
Notes on Network ESLs

A network ESL has advantages and disadvantages. One big advantage is that many client
computers can access the software from a single server. Additional points for consideration are
listed below.
Depending on the number of licenses allowed by the network ESL, some users may receive
error messages when attempting to access the software. For example, if the ESL has been
configured to allow four simultaneous users, an error message stating that no licenses are
available when the fifth user attempts to access the software. Consequently, the fifth user is
not able to access the software until one of the first four users exits the software and
releases a license.
Because of the communication procedures between the client computer and the file server,
memory access to the network ESL is much slower than to a local ESL. This access time
delay only occurs when the software is first started after installation.
Because there is no network specific version of the software, the software looks first for a
local ESL, and then for a network ESL. This allows both a network ESL and several local
ESLs to be used on the same system. This transparent ESL access procedure allows a
single version of the software to be used on the network and on remote computers.
We recommend that only 70 to 80 percent of the required licenses be assigned to a network
ESL, with the remaining 20 to 30 percent assigned to local ESLs. This enables the local ESL
to be moved between computers. If all of the licenses are on the network ESL, a user must
be logged into the network to access the software. As such, a few local ESLs provide much
greater operating flexibility.
NetHASP License Manager / NETHASP.INI Instructions

You must have Administrator privileges to perform the following procedure.
1. Attach the red network hardware lock to the parallel port or USB port of the computer.
2. On the computer where the hardware lock is attached, navigate to the analysis products'
Assidrv folder, and then double-click Lmsetup.exe. For CADWorx, navigate to the [Product
Folder]\Utilities to access LMsetup.exe. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the
NetHASP License Manager as a service.
3. The NetHasp License Manager starts automatically each time you re-boot the computer.
This occurs because the NetHasp License Manager is set up as a start-up service inside
Windows 7/8. To verify that the service is running, click Start > Control Manager >
Administrative Services, and then double-click Services. In the Services dialog box,
locate HASP Loader in the Name list. The HASP Loader Service starts even if no one logs
into the computer.
4. Determine what protocols the NetHasp License Manager is listening to. The NetHasp
License Manager displays a message similar to those list below:
Server is listening to IPX : Loaded
Server is listening to TCP/IP : Loaded

Licensing
Server is listening to NetBIOS : Loaded

Loaded means that this protocol is active on the computer.
5. Open the Activity Log menu. This displays the activity log that confirms which protocols are
loaded. Do not be alarmed if the activity log reports that the NHSRV.ini file is not found.
6. Use the box in the top-left corner of the activity log to display only the information specific to
each protocol. Open the activity log for the protocol you want to use, and verify that it
contains no error messages.
7. For TCP/IP protocol, the activity log should report something similar to the following:
Server IP address: 111.111.111.111
Server Host Name: PDC_NT01
8. To speed up response time to the network key, use the Remove menu to unload any
protocols that you are not planning to use with the NetHasp License Manager.
Modify NetHASP.ini for TCP/IP Protocol

If you still cannot access the network ESL you need to configure this NetHASP.ini
file. You must know the IP address of the computer where the red network hardware lock is
attached. All lines with a semi-colon at the start are considered not used.
1. Modify the NetHASP.ini file, located in the analysis products' Assidrv folder and in
CADWorx's Utilities folder under [NH_COMMON], as follows:
a. NH_TCPIP = Enabled
AND under [NH_TCPIP]
b. NH_SERVER_ADDR = 111.111.111.111
c. NH_USE_BROADCAST = Disabled
You may also have to modify other entries in the [NH_TCPIP] section depending on
your network setup. The most common entry to modify is NH_TCPIP_METHOD.
2. Copy the NetHASP.ini file to the AutoCAD folder.
Example: C:\Program Files\AutoCAD
Example: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD
3. For CADWorx Design, copy the NetHASP.ini file to the [Product Folder]\Intergraph
CAS\CADWorx Design folder.
4. Start CAESAR II.

Licensing
Troubleshooting Network Locks

1. Verify that the NetHasp License Manager is running on the computer where the red network
ESL is attached.
2. Verify the protocols that NetHasp License Manager is broadcasting. Make sure that these
protocols are installed on the client computers.
3. Install and run the Monitor Utility. You can find the NetHASPMonitorSetup.exe located in the
analysis products' Assidrv folder. For CADWorx, you can find the
NetHASPMonitorSetup.exe in the [Product Folder]\Utilities. If NetHASP Monitor cannot find
the red network ESL, then CAESAR II cannot find the red network ESL.

Q: What new features were added in SmartPlant License Manager 2012?
A: We added a new counted type seat for the license key. We also added new options in
the SmartPlant License Manager interface and improved some existing functions.
Q: Where can I find SmartPlant License Manager and other products to download?
A: SmartPlant License Manager is available from Intergraph Smart Support Online
Select View Downloads > SmartPlant License Manager.
You do not need a serial number to install SmartPlant License Manager.
Q: What do I need to do to receive a License Key?
A: You need to generate a Machine ID from your license machine and submit it to
Intergraph to request a license key. After installing SPLM 2012 v12, you can find the
Generate Machine ID utility on your Start menu (Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant
License Manager).
To prevent a loss in production, you can pre-request a new SPLM 2012 license key before
upgrading your SPLM 2010 or previous version to SPLM 2012. You can download the utility
(splmGenMachineID.exe) from Intergraph Smart Support Online
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com). For more information, please check our document
Important Upgrade Info for SPLM 2012.pdf on the eLicense and Smart Support sites (View

Licensing
Downloads > SmartPlant License Manager > Technical Notes and Whitepapers >
SmartPlant License Manager 2012 (v12)).
Q: What is a license machine?
A: The license machine is the computer where the license key is loaded; it can be a
standard computer or a server. The license key tells the license machine how many licenses
it can issue. Clients of a license machine are computers where SmartPlant License Manager
is installed and pointing to the license machine. The computer where you start the software
(for example, PDS or SmartPlant P&ID) asks the license machine for a license. If a license
is available, the license machine provides it. If all licenses are in use, the client is not
granted a license.
Q: What is the Machine ID?
A: The Machine ID is a collection of hardware and software identifiers that together allow a
machine to be uniquely identified. The Machine ID is used to manage licenses. The
information is used to generate the license key and is not useful to other software programs.
Q: Do I need to have SmartPlant License Manager installed in order to generate the
Machine ID?
A: No. The utility used to generate the machine identifier is included in the SmartPlant
License Manager installation but can be downloaded separately without installing
SmartPlant License Manager. The utility is used to generate the Machine ID, which is used
to produce keys for the license machine. SmartPlant License Manager and the new licenses
may be installed at the same time, minimizing disruption and down time.
Q: Will providing the Machine ID make my computer less secure?
A: No. The Machine ID allows the license manager to uniquely identify your computer from
a collection of hardware and software identifiers without explicitly publishing your computer's
TCP/IP address. Because the computer identifier cannot be used like a TCP/IP address, it is
actually more secure than publishing your computer's TCP/IP address.
Q: Is my existing key still running if I regenerate the Machine ID?
A: Yes, but you will not be able to reinstall the old key. You will need to request a new key
for the new machine identifier.
Q: I currently have SPLM v11 installed. Can I install SPLM v12 on top of this version?
What will happen with my current license key?
A: Yes, you can over-install SPLM 2012 v12 on your current SPLM 2010 v11 license
machine or client, but you will need to generate a new machine ID, and request and install a
new key after you upgrade to SPLM 2012 on your license machine.
Q: Can I pre-request a SPLM v12 license key to prevent production down time? I currently
have SPLM v11 installed.
A: Yes, you can pre-request a SPLM v11 license key prior to upgrading to SPLM v12 on
your license machine. You need to download the Generate Machine ID executable for
SPLM 2012 (splmGenMachineID.exe) first to get a v12 machine ID and then request a
SPLM v12 license key.
Detailed instructions can be found in Important Upgrade Info for SPLM 2012.pdf." Be sure
to read this document first before upgrading your license machine.
Both the upgrade instructions and the Generate Machine ID executable for SPLM 2012
(splmGenMachineID.exe) can be downloaded from Intergraph Smart Support Online

Licensing
(https://smartsupport.intergraph.com) or from eLicense

(https://ppmapps.intergraph.com/elicensev3).
Q: How can I tell what version of SPLM was used in the Machine ID or license key file?
A: Please check the starting number or letter in your Machine ID or license key. See the
table below.
Version Machine ID starts with License key starts with
2012 (12.00.82.00) M K
2012 (12.00.16.00) A 4
2012 (12.00.05.00) 5 3
2010 (v11) 6 2
2008 (v10) 7 1
Q: How can I find the version of SmartPlant License Manager that I have installed?
A: You can find that information in the readme.txt or readme.html located in the product
directory (by default, C:\win32app\INGR\SPLM), or you can select Help > About
SmartPlant License Manager located in the top right corner of the SmartPlant License
Manager user interface.
Q: What happens if I install the new license key prior to expiration of the old license key?
A: The new license will overwrite the existing key independent of the expiration date.
Q: Do I have to have one license machine for each LAN?
A: No, your configuration is entirely up to you. A persistent network connection is required if
you want to connect to a license machine that belongs to a different LAN.
Q: Can I divide the licenses for one LAN into several license machines for the purpose of
managing project access, for example, or as coverage in the event that my license
machine goes down?
A: Yes, you can divide the licenses.
Q: How do I remove SmartPlant License Manager?
A: Select Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features > Uninstall SPLM from the list
If you need to set up your license machine again after you remove SPLM, you will
need to re-install SPLM, generate a new Machine ID, and request a new key.
Q: Can I set up the SmartPlant License Manager license machine in a Virtual Machine?
A: Yes, you can set up the SmartPlant License Manager license machine in a virtual
machine. However, only limited testing had been done and there is a high potential of
failure. We do not recommend setting up a license machine in a virtual environment. We can
only provide very limited support for SPLM licensing machine running in any virtual
configurations.

Licensing
If you are experiencing problems with your SPLM machine configured in a virtual
environment you will ask you to configure a non virtualized environment. Only after the
problem is known to be reproducible in a non-virtualized environment will Intergraph react to
the problem. To troubleshoot your virtual configuration problems may require a consulting
services agreement and might not be covered under your regular maintenance agreement.
Q: Is the SmartPlant License Manager Users Guide delivered with the software products?
A: Yes. The SmartPlant License Manager Installation and Users Guide is included with all
products that require SmartPlant License Manager. The document is also available with the
product documentation on Intergraph Smart Support Online
This document explains the new features, client and license machine installations and
functions, upgrade instructions, license control, error messages, and troubleshooting.
Q: What is license stacking?
A: License stacking gives an administrator the ability to input two license keys (this month's
and next month's), each with its own quantity of licenses for each of the next two months.
This gives system administrators much more freedom and helps ensure there is no down
time.
Q: Do I need to remove the existing key in order to input two license keys for two
months?
A: No. You schedule next months licenses this month. Get a new key, create the bat file,
and submit it to install. Once the installation date/time has passed, the new key will be the
one installed.
pdlice -a keyvaluehere >>outputfilehere
Submit the bat file to either the AT services or a batch queue to run at a specified time.
Q: How are the number of licenses for a given license machine determined?
A: The number of licenses covered by a license key equals the total number of licenses that
you have purchased or are leasing for each LAN ID listed for that license server. Intergraph
records determine the correct number of licenses for the key.
To change the number of licenses for a LAN, use the License Key Request Form found on
the following web page:
http://www.intergraph.com/ppm/products.aspx
Sending this form does not change your number of licenses; it notifies Intergraph that you
want to do so. A valid purchase order is required to increase the number of licenses for your
LAN.
Q: How do I check the number of licenses in a license key?
A: On your licensing machine, click Show Key Status on the Display Options dialog box to
show the status of your keys.
Q: How can I tell who is using a license?
A: Click Display Status of Reserved License on the Display Options dialog box.
Q: Does the installation date have to be precise?

Licensing
A: The key can be installed any time during the 72-hour period that begins with the
installation date you provide. For example, if you request 01-July-2008 as the installation
date, the key can be installed on 01-July, 02-July, or 03-July.
Q: Can I make an educated guess at my installation date?
A: Yes. Intergraph will provide a key within 48 hours of receipt of your request (via mail or
phone). Please ensure that the date you request is the actual date that you will install the
key, making sure that all necessary software is available and loaded before that date. We
request that you notify us as early as possible.
Q: What happens if my licensing machine goes down?
A: You will be unable to check out licenses from this machine until it is back in use.
Processes that already have licenses checked out are not affected by the fact that the
license computer is unavailable.
It is possible in critical situations to request emergency licenses from Intergraph. They are
installed on the client computer rather than a licensing machine. Contact Intergraph Support
at 1-800-766-7701 or your local Intergraph office for more information.
Q: What happens if the license machine is rebooted in the middle of my design session?
A: Nothing. Licensing does not depend on maintaining a continuous communication link to
the license machine.
Q: What happens if my local computer goes down after I've obtained a license?
A: If the scavenger cannot contact the client computer during scavenging, the license is
marked for a 16-hour hold before it is released. The scavenger periodically advances this
16-hour timer for each license. It is important to schedule the scavenger to run regularly, at
least every hour or two. If the client is in contact sooner, the hold is voided and normal
scavenging takes over.
Q: I am running out of licenses earlier than I believe I should be. How can I troubleshoot
to understand what is happening?
A: The Admin user can run Scavenge for Keys on the Scavenge Options dialog box or
you can type pdlice -n in a Command Prompt window on the license machine.
If you think that client nodes are improperly holding onto licenses, examine the results of the
pdlice -M command. This shows you which client nodes have licenses checked out. If a
client computer has no plant design-related activity and it is still holding licenses, rebooting
that client and then scavenging from the licensing machine may free some licenses.
If possible, find out what was processing when the job stopped. This information can help
you and/or Intergraph determine the underlying cause of the termination. Save the output of
any scavenging process that returns a license. This information will provide the reasons why
the license was returned. The output of the scavenger includes the following information:
nodename, product tag, batch mode (Yes/No), process ID, and checkout time.
Q: Can SmartPlant License Manager be installed on a laptop computer?
A: Yes, SmartPlant License Manager can be installed on a laptop and a laptop can be used
as a SmartPlant License Manager client or licensing machine.
1. Download the latest SmartPlant License Manager software from Intergraph Smart
Support Online and install the software.

Licensing
2. Prepare the laptop for machine ID generation: Disable all the network connections
except the loopback adapter before generating the Machine ID. Do not attempt to
generate the Machine ID more than once. (Please refer to the corresponding section in
the SmartPlant License Manager Installation and User's Guide about how to set up the
loopback adapter.). Also, make sure the loopback adapter is the first on your network
connection list (Control Panel > Network Connections > Advanced Settings).
3. Select Generate Machine ID from the Intergraph SmartPlant License Manager program
group.
4. Send the Machine ID output to Intergraph to request a license key. If all the previous
steps described in this section were performed correctly, SmartPlant License Manager
should work if the laptop is connected to the network or not. No extra step is required
when the laptop is connected back to the network.
Q: Is there a limit for the number of seats that can be generated per key?
A: The limit is 32766 seats per license key.
Q: Can I run the executable of SmartPlant License Manager or SmartPlant products in XP
compatible mode?
A: No, you should not set SmartPlant License Manager or SmartPlant products in XP
compatible mode. If you do, your SmartPlant products may return the following error:
SPLM Failed [Creating/Stating] The parameter is incorrect.
SOFTWARE\Intergraph\Pdlice_etc
Q: When an application is on a machine that is disconnected from the network without
exiting the product, how long is the license held?
A: 16 hours.
Q: Which products can have daily licenses?
A: Currently PDS and S3D support daily licenses.
Q: How long would a daily license last?
A: A daily license expires after 12 hours.
Q: We installed a key for three licenses, but we can operate only two licenses at the same
time. Why?
A: There can be several reasons.
Click Display Status of Reserved License on the Display Options dialog box to
determine the number of licenses that your key contains.
Click Scavenge for Keys on the Scavenge Options dialog box to scavenge for the third
license that you are unable to use.
Verify that clients and servers can ping to each other. Look for anomalies such as two nodes
on the network with the same name or the reuse of an old name for a new computer, but
with some traces of the old computer still existing in files on the network.
Q: What is the difference between the Select License Machine for Client command and
the Select License Machine for Client (Current User) command?
A: The Select License Machine for Client command updates the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (HKLM) list of license machines so that all users will have the
same list of license servers. This command requires administrator privileges.

Licensing
The Select License Machine for Client (Current User) command updates the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER (HKCU) list of license servers for a specific user. This command
runs with non-administrator/standard user privileges. There can be a different list of license
servers for each user on a machine.
HKCU takes precedence over HKLM. In other words, if HKCU is set, SmartPlant
License Manager does not use the license machines in HKLM.
Q: How does the PDLICE_WAIT variable work?
A: For interactive jobs, the jobs do not wait for licenses if none are available. You are
notified immediately that the jobs did not start. You can retry.
For batch jobs, the variable PDLICE_WAIT can be used to change the wait time. By default,
a batch job will wait for up to 12 hours for a license to become available. You can change
the wait time by setting the environment variable on the client computer from which the
license was attempted to be obtained.

SECTION 3
Using the SmartPlant License
Checkout Utility
The SmartPlant License Checkout utility allows you to obtain licenses for ICAS for use on a
non-networked computer (for example, a remote laptop). Using this utility allows you to run ICAS
without a network connection to the license machine. Each user on a server can check out a
license on that machine. When you check out a license, the license and expiration information
are stored for use by the application. Your Intergraph application determines the license
information location and whether the checkout operation applies to all users or a single user on
the same system.
Each time you start the product during the checkout period, a message displays the expiration
date for the checked out license. When the checkout period for the license expires, the
application attempts to request a license using SmartPlant License Manager the next time you
start the product. For example, after the license expires at 11:59 PM on the expiration date, the
next time you start the product, it attempts to access the SmartPlant License Manager license
machine for base and module licenses prior to running.
For information on products supported by the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility, see the
Intergraph PPM Compatibility Matrix - Product Report: Intergraph Smart Support Online
You must install and configure SmartPlant License Manager before checking out a license.
You must have administrator privileges to setup and install the utility.

If you installed the latest version of the SmartPlant License Checkout Utility, it is installed
along with the older version. Both versions display from the Start menu as shown in the
following example:
License Checkout Utility Dialog Box

Specifies the product for which you want to check out a license.
Application Group
Displays the installed products available for license checkout. Select the product for which
you want to check out licenses.
If the Application Group list is empty, your application requires an older version of
the checkout utility. Please check your original product installation media for the compatible
version of the utility.
Available Modules
Displays any modules or add-ins available with your product. If no modules appear in the
list, either your product contains no supported modules, or no modules have been installed.
Check the box beside the module for which you want to check out a license, and then click

Check Out. If you want to check out only the base product, do not check any of the
modules.
License Expiration
Specifies the date that you want the checkout to expire. When the checkout period for the
license expires, the product returns to normal and connected license operation using the
SmartPlant License Manager the next time you start the product.
Check Out a License

1. Make sure SmartPlant License Manager (SPLM) is set up on your computer.
2. Click Start > Programs > Intergraph SmartPlant License Checkout Utility > License
Checkout Utility.
License Checkout Utility Dialog Box (on page 35)
3. In the Application Group list, select your product.
4. In the Available Modules list, select the module to use.
5. If required, select an expiration from the License Expiration list, and then click Check Out.
The minimum length of time you can have a license checked out is for approximately 24 hours.
You can cut this time down to approximately 12 hours if you check out the license just before
mid-day. For product-specific check out information, refer to the installation guide provided with
your product.
Each time you start CAESAR II while using remote license mode, the software displays a
message informing you when the checked out licenses expire. The first time that you run
CAESAR II after the checked out licenses expire, the software displays a message informing
you that the checked out licenses have expired and that the software is reverting to the standard
connected license mode and attempting to get licenses from SmartPlant License Manager.
When running in remote license mode, you cannot use setup to modify the product
installation until the following conditions are met:
The checkout duration expires.
The system is working with SmartPlant License Manager in connected license mode
once again.
In other words, you cannot install or remove modules while running in remote license mode.
If CAESAR II is running in remote license mode but is unable to confirm for any reason that
it is running in that mode, CAESAR II automatically returns to connected license mode and
attempts to obtain the licenses from SmartPlant License Manager. CAESAR II notifies you if
it is unable to obtain licenses from SmartPlant License Manager.

Network Installations
The installation program treats a network drive no different than a local hard drive. Specify the
target installation drive and folder, and the software will be copied and expanded accordingly.
Some networks protect installation directories from subsequent modification by users. This
involves setting the access rights to the installation folder to read, share, and scan. Because
Intergraph CAS, Inc. software uses data files specific to the installation (that is, accounting files,
material files, and so forth) that a user may need to modify, these files cannot be installed in a
typical write-protected installation folder.
Therefore, CAESAR II installs these data files in a System subfolder, located in the following
location of your root directory based on your platform.
Windows 7/Vista
\Program Data\Intergraph CAS\CAESAR II\Version Number\System
Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Intergraph CAS\CAESAR II\Version
Number\System
While the actual name of the program's installation folder can revised when you install the
software, the CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder name is fixed as it is automatically created by
CAESAR II. If you rename the CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder, CAESAR II fails run and
generates an error report.
Do not confuse this CAESAR II SYSTEM subfolder is not the primary, top-level SYSTEM
directory that contains the network operating system. Consult your system administrator for
further clarification.
After the software has been installed on the network drive, the installation program launches the
CAESAR II Configuration Editor, which generates a default configuration file.

Node Locations on Bends

Bends are defined by the element entering the bend and the element leaving the bend. The
actual bend curvature is always physically at the TO end of the element entering the bend.
The element leaving a bend must appear immediately after the element defining (entering)
the bend.
The default bend radius is 1.5 times the pipe nominal OD.
For stress and displacement output, the TO node of the element entering the bend is
located geometrically at the FAR point on the bend. The FAR point is at the weld line of the
bend and adjacent to the straight element leaving the bend.
The NEAR point on the bend is at the weld line of the bend and adjacent to the straight
element entering the bend.
The FROM point on the element is located at the NEAR point of the bend if the total length
of the element as specified in the DX, DY and DZ fields is equal to:
Radius tan( Beta / 2 )
where Beta is the bend angle and Radius is the bend radius of curvature to the bend
centerline.
Nodes defined in the Angle # and Node # fields are placed at the given angle on the bend
curvature. The angle starts with zero degrees at the NEAR point on the bend and goes to
Beta degrees at the FAR point of the bend.
Angles are always entered in degrees.
By default, nodes on the bend curvature cannot be specified within five (5) degrees of one
another or within five degrees of the nearest end point. This and other bend settings may be
changed in the Configuration Editor. Click Configure or Tools > Configure/Setup.
For more information, see Configuration Options (on page 51) and Geometry Directives (on
page 54).
When the FROM node on the element entering the bend is not at the bend NEAR point, a
node may be placed at the NEAR point of the bend by entering an Angle # equal to 0.0
degrees. For more information, see the graphic below.
When defining a bend element for the first time in the pipe spreadsheet, nodes are
automatically placed at the near and midpoint of the bend. The generated midpoint node
number is one less than the TO node number on the element, and the generated near point
node number is two less than the TO node number on the element. A near point should

always be included in the model in tight, highly formed piping systems. The top-left figure
below shows the points on the bend as they would be input. The top-right figure shows the
actual geometric location of the points on the bend. The bottom-left figure shows the same
geometry except that two nodes are defined on the bend curvature at angles of zero and
forty-five degrees.

Where:
f2 = Part Factor for Loading (default values listed from Table 3)
0.89 for Occasional Short-Term Loads
0.83 for Sustained Loads Including Thermal Loads
0.67 for Sustained Loads Excluding Thermal Loads
A1 = Partial Factor for Temperature
A2 = Partial Factor for Chemical Resistance
A3 = Partial Factor for Cyclic Service
qs = Qualified Stress (entered for bends, fittings, and joints)
al(0,1) = Long-Term Axial Strength at 0:1 Stress Ratio
hl(1,1) = Long-Term Hoop Strength at 1:1 Stress Ratio
hl(2,1) = Long-Term Hoop Strength at 2:1 Stress Ratio
r= Bi-Axial Stress Ratio 2al(0,1)/qs (for simplified and rectangular

envelopes)
a,sum =
Sum of All Axial Stresses {(ap + ab)2 + 42}1/2
h,sum =
Sum of All Hoop Stresses [h2 + 42]1/2
ap =

CAESAR II Verification and Validation Guide

The CAESAR II Verification and Validation Guide is a publicly available verification document.
This manual briefly discusses current industry QA standards, the Intergraph CAS QA standard,
a series of benchmark tests, and instructions for implementing QA procedures on your own
hardware.
The benchmark test compares analysis results to published data by ASME and the NRC.
Additional tests compare CAESAR II results to other industry programs.
For additional information on the manual, contact the sales department at
