    Clamping Force on cylindrical object

    Hi, it is for a school project. The cylinder is part of a framework structure of subsea equipment. Additional lashing points was needed to be added to the product during transportation, so this clamp was developed.

    Clamping Force on cylindrical object

    Hi, I should have mentioned that the cylinder is vertical, the clamp may only slide downwards if the clamping force is not high enough. The tensile force is without a safety factor around 12000N, worst case scenario would probably be to assume that this force acts straight downwards. Assuming...

    Clamping Force on cylindrical object

    Hello, I have some questions regarding clamping force. I have a two-piece cylindrical clamp which is to be clamped around a cylindrical part. It is a clamp installed on a product during transportation, where lashings go between the clamp and trailer. The coefficient of friction and surface area...
