Hi All, Is there any standard (preferably ISO) which says what line color should be for the following in a .dwg drawing, thanks in advance. Dimensions Text (i think it is cyan) Equipment Existing item/equipment/structure New item/equipment/structure

Thanks Dave, SWComposites.

Hi All, for glass there is no yield stress as it is a brittle material. So the failure criteria for glass materials under a certain amount of external pressure will be the compressive strength? Any comments on this please?

Thanks Dave, Greg.

Thanks Dave. Tugboat both are new batteries. It would be nice to have a literature related to this fundamentals.

Hi All, We have a truck with 1 battery, and have installed a second battery for additional components in the truck (both are 24 V). How can I confirm that the auxiliary power system will not cause under voltage of the starter batteries, and how can I calculate based on the consumption...

Thanks Jassco, ctopher and Scott.

Hi All, One of the workshops I visited had a lifting beam and web slings. The lift beam is made from a I-Beam. The web sling has been wrapped around 1 or 2 times as the sling is long. Can you please advise 1. Is wrapping of a web sling permitted around a I-Beam, even if the edges on the beam...

Jboggs, thanks. ctopher, can you explain what do you mean by "the part with the nutsert as an assy part number"? So basically if you have the weldment part+nutsert, then you treat is as an assembly?

Hi All, As per standard practice, a weldment item/part (made up of 2 or 3 different bodies) has a single file/part number. But how do you treat a weldment item/part which has a nutsert installed on it. Because once the nutsert is installed, you can't disassemble it. What are the best...

Hi All, I am working in a company where a weldment item is made up of 2,3 or more parts welded together. As per standard industry practice, this item will have a single part number. But here, they have give all different part numbers to the items welded in the weldment. So they consider this as...

Gents thanks for the answers, but still there is no clarity on the motor torque. BrianE22, I am planning to use a center bush to centralize the gear, and I am aware of it, so working on it.

Hi All, I am working on a mechanism where I need to rotate a load hanging with hoist trolleys on a round/circular I-Beam track. While simple torque calculations can be done by available data, the mechanism is not as simple. The hanging load, trolley roller friction, and load being on the...

Thanks for all the answers. This KE is from a traveling object that will hit the steel circular section, with a energy of KE = 1/2 * m * v^2, which comes out to be around 1.82 kN.m.

Hi All, I have some value of kinetic energy, 1.82 kN.m which I want to apply to a steel circular hollow section member Dia. 140mm x 10mm thickness, 5m length. I want to apply this energy as a force. Is there a way I can apply this? Regards, HD
