Controls whether CAESAR II includes pressure stiffening effects in those codes that do not explicitly require its use. In these cases, pressure stiffening effects will apply to all bends, elbows, and both miter types. In all cases, the pressure used is the maximum of all pressures defined for the element.

Pressure stiffening effects are defined in Appendix D of B31.1 and B31.3.

When set to Default, the software considers the pressure stiffening of bends according to the active piping code.
