What ever source of info you read you wont be able to solve problem related to piping vibration without getting the vibration reading at several location of the piping in question.
Then you need a severity chart after plotting the mode shape. Then you need th perform a stress calc followed by getting another vib reading after the fix (SwRI has several suggestion related to bringing the level of vib down to an acceptable range).
CII alone wont help. If you know someone who earn a living handling vibration problem (i used to be) - by all means go ask him. Better still make an inquiry with the company that sells vib instrument the like of Bentley or CSI.
Agreed.
