2. Appendix D Supports Support information Location and its type from Plant Design software can be transferred to CAESAR II in two ways viz 1 With the use of mapping DB 2 Without using Mapping DB With the use of mapping DB In many large organizations the Plant Design Engineer is responsible only for generating the Piping Layout and the Stress Engineer will be responsible for carrying out the detailed Stress Analysis Hence the Plant Design Engineer may not have details on mathematical supports equivalent to Plant Design physical support configurations In such cases the Stress Engineer can define the mathematical supports equivalent to Plant Design software using the SupportType mdb file and can instruct the Plant Design Engineer on filling such information in the Plant Design software at Support locations The Plant Design Engineer can then produce the Neutral file from the Plant Design software and convert the same to CAESAR II using the translator The details on entering the information and transferring the same to CAESAH II are listed below Transfer of Supports The support details entered via attributes and its location specified in the Plant Design software are transferred to CAESAR II The values of the attributes filled at support locations shall be in accordance with the values specified in the field 1 of tables Zvertical and Yvertical of SupportType mdb built into this software The values from field 1 of tabl
