*Environmental
To specify a list of Flexcom analyses to be included in the code checking calculations.
Refer to Code Checking for further information on this feature.
A block of lines specifying a list of Flexcom analyses to be included in the code checking calculations. The block begins with a line specifying the environmental (and optionally the functional) analysis file name. This is followed by an optional line specifying start and end times for the code checking calculations. This may be followed by a list of element sets which are to be considered for checking. The element set line may be repeated as often as required. The entire block of data may then be repeated for the second and successive Flexcom analysis.
Mandatory line specifying the file name:
ENVIRONMENTAL=Environmental File Name [,FUNCTIONAL=Functional File Name]
[,FACTOR=Design Factor] [, COLLATE= Collate Option]
Optional line specifying the start and end times:
[START=Start Time] [, END=End Time]
Optional (repeatable) line specifying an element set name:
[SET=Set Name]
If the Functional File Name is not specified, it defaults to the analysis immediately preceding the environmental analysis in the restart chain. Start Time and End Time default to the analysis start and end times respectively. Set Name defaults to all elements (set ALL).

Description |
Environmental File Name: |
The name of the Flexcom analysis which represents the environmental load case. A file extension is not required. |
Functional File Name: |
The name of the Flexcom analysis which represents the functional load case. If not specified, it defaults to the analysis immediately preceding the environmental analysis in the restart chain. |
Design Factor: |
This design factor for use with the API-STD-2RD and ISO-13628-7 code check. |
Collation Option: |
Invoking this option means a summary of maximum utilizations of that environment will be included in a summary file (with the file extension SUM) |
Start Time: |
The start time for the code checking calculations. This entry is optional, and defaults to the analysis start time if omitted. |
End Time: |
The end time for the code checking calculations. This entry is optional, and defaults to the analysis end time if omitted. |
Set Name: |
The name of the element set to be considered for code checking. This defaults to all elements. |
(a)Use as many rows as you need to define a list of element sets in a particular Flexcom analysis to be considered for code checking. Simply leave Columns 1, 2 and 3 blank for the second and subsequent element sets. For subsequent Flexcom analyses, put the file name in Column 1 and specify the element set data in the same way.
