This spreadsheet calculates the a variety of resultant engineering requirments per.

• Roark's Formulas for STress and Strain, 7th edition, Table 9.2 Case 1
• Pressure Vessel Design Manual, 3rd Edition
• ASME B31.1-2006

Variables calculated:

• Change in the pipe horizontal diameter
• Change in the vertical diameter
• Bending stress at A due to clamping action
• Bending stress at B due to clamping action
• B31.3 Circumf. Stress due to internal pressure
• Maximum combined circumferantial stress at A
• Maximum combined circumferantial stress at B
