Controls whether welding tees and reinforced tees are included in the SIFs for reduced fittings. Part of the discussion centers around just what should be considered a reduced fitting. The CAESAR II default (False) is to assume that welding tees and reinforced fabricated tees are covered by the reduced fitting expressions, even though the reduced fitting expressions do not explicitly cover these intersection types. If you want to leave welding tees and rein\-forced tees out of this definition, set this option to True.
