Thanks Guys, I will check it out. I was asked to design a davit for a specific vessel. So I wanted to set up a spreadsheet that will give the combined stresses to fit the davits.
I work for a pressure vessel manufacturer and normally the customer ask for the material that they want us to build the vessel. However, if you know of a chemical engineer or a chemist, he/she could tell you what material to make the vessel. I would believe that stainless would work well, such...
Does anyone know of a spreadsheet or any information that would take you through a step-by-step process for calculating and fabricating davits or manways?
