Stress Analysis

ECE provides the piping stress analysis services catering to the specific client needs while complying with the industry specific codes.

Every project starts with defining the stress analysis policy for the project.

Our extensive data bank allows us to perform analysis based upon several industry specific standards.

Our experts are capable of carrying out both static as well as dynamic analysis of the system. Static analysis capabilities include thermal analysis, wind and earthquake analysis, and fatigue analysis. Dynamic analysis includes Modal analysis, Harmonic Analysis, Spectrum (Earthquake, Water Hammer, and Relief) analysis, and Time History Analysis.

We pay special attention to code compliance and design of pipe supports. We always go a step further to serve our client. To insure the longevity of the system we make equipment component compliance a part of stress analysis activity. We use the following codes/standards to ensure the loads on nozzles are within allowable limits.
