Indicates that hanger design allows short range springs.

CAESAR II gives you the option of excluding short range springs from consideration from the selection algorithms. Short range springs are considered specialty items in some instances and are not used unless their shorter length is required for clearance reasons. Clear this check box in this case.

If this option is not selected, CAESAR II selects a mid-range spring over a short-range spring. The software assumes that mid-range springs are more standard, readily available, and in general cheaper than their short-range counterparts.

If the default should be that short-range springs are used wherever possible, then check the box on the Hanger Design Control Data dialog box.
