Property

Description

Name

Element identifier. When checked, displays in the 3D model view.

Get properties from matching pipe

Automatically inherits header wall thickness, material, Wc factor, and other parameters from the connected pipe.

Calculate weight automatically

Calculates tee weight as the total volume of header and branch cylinders.

Header length, L

Length of the tee header section. Used for precise weight calculation.

Crotch height, L1

Height from header OD to branch centerline.

Tee height, H

Vertical distance from header centerline to branch end. H = D/2 + L1

Material

Material specification from the materials database

Weight

Tee bare weight excluding insulation and fluid contents. Uses standard value without overload factors. Fluid and insulation weights with applicable overload factors are automatically calculated from adjacent pipes.

Longitudinal Weld Joint Efficiency Factor, E

Longitudinal weld joint efficiency factor. More...

Use notes 6,9,10

Apply when displacement cycles exceed 200.

Meet D1, Note 10 a,c,d,e,f

Manufacturing technology

For ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, DL/T 5366-2014, seamless pipe uses Wl=1.0. Electric-welded pipe uses Wl from database. More...

For GOST 32388-2013, material properties are sourced from different databases based on pipe type (seamless or welded).

Flanges on tee header

ASME B31J Note 7 requirement

0 - No flanges

1 - One flange (single header end)

2 - Two flanges (both header ends)

Crotch radius, rx (r)

Crotch radius. Defaults to branch OD/2 if rx=0.

Nominal header wall thickness, tn

Header wall thickness used for SIF, flexibility factor, and section modulus (Z) calculations.
