Hello All
have you heard of or are you familiar with the terms "Float over structural design" , or "SACS"??
To help with context; ... "> Must be able to train inexperience engineers not only in the use of SACS but also in the application of SACS to the float over concept. <"

Thanks, any help is appreciated, even just to say you've never heard the terms used in the piping field

As for SACS ...... Structural Analysis Computer System,
from their website:

Hi Anton, Thanks. Good searching on your part. I imagine there would be some specific piping requirements to that type of construction, like flexible connections, or at least field fit welds.

Thanks again
