Hello,

I'm working on a job using BS 7159 code for the first time. I'm not sure how to set up the load cases in Caesar II. I believe the code states that only the operating load case needs to be satisfied, but that it should include wind as well. What about for checking the pressure or weight or thermal expansion alone? Should SUS or EXP stress types ever be used?

Thanks,
D
