Thank you for the advice on the additional information.
Another question on Annex S:
"Therefore, an initial bolt stress of some magnitude greater than the design value must be provided."
So the design bolt load W can be exceeded, even if this W was used to calculate the material thickness of...
Dear all,
for a research project I am designing a Pressure vessel for 8 bar and a small volume. It should be closed by a Bolted Flat End, containing 3 openings. Before taking the reinforcement in consideration (UG-39) the unweakened thickness of the flat head has to be calculated via UG-34. For...
