Pipe Stress Analysis – CAESAR II, ASME B31.3 / B31.1 / B31.4 / B31.8
Pipe stress analysis checks that piping can handle pressure, temperature, weight, wind, earthquake and equipment movement without overstress, leaks or damage to pumps and compressors.
SLETEC performs stress analysis for process, utility, steam and pipeline systems, including nozzle load checks against API 610, 617 and 661, flange leakage, support design, spring hanger selection, slug and relief valve loads, and buried pipe analysis. We can check a single line or a full unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which piping needs stress analysis?
Hot or cold lines, lines connected to pumps and compressors, large diameter lines, high pressure lines and relief lines usually need formal analysis.
Can you check just one line?
Yes. Single-line checks are common small jobs for us.
Which software do you use?
CAESAR II, with results reported to ASME B31.3, B31.1, B31.4 or B31.8 as required.
