Let me see if I can clarify y answering all your questions
1. 50% horizontal welding, 50% overhead
2. 40ft straight welding intervals (welding 40ft of pipe cut in half on to a plate for a total length of 120ft, welding on both sides of the resulting 1/2 sections or 'c' would be a total of...
I have 960 linear feet of welding to do. Is there a general rule of thumb for the amount/weight for a sigle pass of 3/16 welding electrode based on linear feet?
Thank You
I'm thinking in the long term, the maintenance of the epoxy would be more practical to do in situ.
Received a few quotes and the price for hot tip is 4 times as much as epoxy, meaning after the cost for 4 repairs, the cost of maintenance compared to hot tip would be an issue
This may be a very newbie question but I have some lamp posts to install close to the sea.
Do I have to go with hot tipped galvanisd steel or would epoxy coated steel suffice?
Looking for a 2nd opinion, I'm cost driven
Thank You
Good day,
I need to place 23lbs zinc anodes on a barge. I'm going withe the convention
Total surface area of anodes = 1% of wetted surface.
Now that gives me the total surface area of anodes, 57sq ft, but how do i adequately space these anodes? is there a convention for this or a rule of...
It was a indeed an internal leak, the directional control valve was not suitable for a winch arrangement.
We changed out the entire DCV & it was rated to 6.8T
Sadly, there was no schematic diagram, the system has been modified numerous times (and not documented) that I didn't know what was...
We have a winch trying to certify to 6t. its making 6t but when the control is in neutral position its losing pressure causing a decrease in the load.
I know its kind of broad questions but what could cause this?
The equipment would be subjected to repeated drops, of approx 150ft, average weight of 200lbs.
All I require is that the weld doesnt break.
Will call local supplier now.
Thank You
Hello,
How practical is it to weld a 36" stainlees steel strip 1/4" thick onto a mild steel plate 1/4" thick along the edge?
Are there alternatives to fasten these two metals together?
Thank You
Good point there, that what the geotechs call it, so the jargon was created
It works well on land based trials but when u factoring the pitch of the boat and bad weather, things start to move.
We've been having some very bad weather
We've decided to shorten the A Frame by 6' as well as add more bracing as long as it doesnt interfere with the cables running between the vertical columns
thanks everyone.
still encouraging suggestions
@paddington
yes, it was contracted to a design firm.
Some bracing was done but its limited by cables running between the beams.
@ishvaag
for each leg, the web is 'sandwich' between two 1" plate which goes between 1" pad eye on either side.
The Ibeam is used for a jumbo piston corer (JPC), and...
