What does LOC mean in the General Stress Report?
General Stress location Total stress is calculated every 15 deg and the zero degree axis for the total stress location angle in a clockwise direction around the pipe. The 0 degree axis is the local axis of the pipe cross-section, i.e. perpendicular to the pipe axis, corresponding to the resultant in-plane bending moment. For example, if the local bending moments are my and mz, then arctan (my/mz) is the location of the 0 degree reference axis for the general stress location relative to the local y axis. Note: For straight pipe in-plane bending is arbitrary since no plane of bending like an elbow.
