LCAS: static load case

RF: if not blank, dependent load case: P and Tare those of RF

TY: type of analysis, only to determine how restraints such as
snubbers, variable support spring hangers and constant support hangers
behave (see Table 3.4 in PS manual). E.g.:

0 = Thermal Expansion

1 = Dynamic Continued Operation

2 = Dynamic Safe Shut-down

3 = Operating Weight

6 = Seismic Displacement

9 = Design Weight
Identifiant

EQ: code equation to be verified: 0 = default output for TY, 1 = no output

seismic response)
ME=3: unsigned + signed cases. Used when building two load sets with
extreme moments (Class 1), see PS manual

case automatically included). Used in particular for defining MC in CSTR

temperature of the load case
