How to derive allowable longitudinal compressive stress as seen in pvlite calculations?
 
The maximum allowable longitudinal compressive stress is the B value as outlined in ASME UG-23.

In combined loading conditions, the maximum allowable longitudinal compressive stress is considered to be 1.2B as oulined in ASME UG-23.

PV ELite would also be using the same considering the dimensions in corroded conditions when determing the ratios which in turn determine B.
