Piping Stress analysis is a term applied to calculations, which address the static and dynamic loading resulting from the effects of gravity, temperature changes, internal and external pressures, changes in fluid flow rate and seismic activity. Codes and standards establish the minimum requirements of stress analysis. The Purpose of piping stress analysis is to ensure:

• 1. Safety of piping and piping components.
• 2. Safety of connected equipment and supporting structure.
• 3. To keep piping deflections within the limits.
