Hello,
Is there any calculation dictated by ASME on UG-34 sketch m for example. Of course "t" of flat head you can find, but retaining rings or threads in different sketches, is there any "approved" calculation procedure?
THX, It's true API doesn't prohibit other designs as well (read that later), my last question would then be: what are ways of calculating thoose designs? FEA?
Hopefully tank experts can help me here. I'm not API designer (I use ASME and EN) but I got a project to check and thought I could learn something new in process.
A tank is API 650 19m diameter with dome roof. Dome roof as I can see has radial and circumferental structers (rafters and girders)...
I have a question ragarding UW-12 when head and shell are seamless. If I understood correctly joint efficiency E=1 when spot radiography requirements of UW-11a5b are met.
But if I preform no radiography or do not met above requirement E=0,85?
Also if one uses weld type no. 3,4,5 or 6 E=0,85?
Agree with XL83NL, use ASME Materials, though a lot of manufacturers are now giving dual certificate.
2.2 for non pressure parts will be fine, unless in some off shore projects
THX,
That is the main problem, thoose numbers we got, basically 17kN when you combine vector in one direction, look very strange, almost impossible looking at entire pipework. Trouble is we are only hired to do vessel, and price is going up for huge legs or skirt.
I managed to found this...
Hi,
Maybe this was answered before but I don't have luxury of time to search entire forum, so hopefully I can get some help.
We got small, relatively standard vessel to design. We later received forces and moments on nozzles, one moment, circumferential one, was 5.5 kNm and that forced us to...
I have a question considering weld that is both circumferential and longitudinal. Basically part of pipe needs to be cut down and they welded back together,between welds in both direction there is a radius of course. My question is: is there similar examples in ASME to look in to it?
Can you instruct me where in ASME code is calculation for fillet weld size (throat size). I have two plates, one of top another, same thickness, and a = 0,7 x t equals decimal number. (12mm plate on 12mm plate, 0,7x12=8,4). Of course that is max. "a" you can use since going with there is no...
Exactly, that is the main problem, angle is afwul. In ASME VIII there is an example of similiar problem and it's hanled like on the image, basically nozzle is welded like weldolet.
Hi,
I need to create weld beads and weld preparations, even though I'm currently working in Solidworks, and it has less options than Catia, in spare time I returned to my first love :) Catia. So my question is: how to create weld in weld design for cylindrical parts. I'm googling it, but all I...
Hello,
I'm searching ASME manual, but I just remmbered I registered here as well so maybe someone could save me reading hours.
I need rule for welding reinforcement part of pipe to shell pipe. Trouble is if I use standard a=0,7 tmin. I don't have enough pipe thickness, since "a" is calculated...
That's right, I need it to be in two parts for further manifacturing and drawing, I could also copy/paste sketch from eliptical cap and then groove clynder, but I'm lookin for a way to trim the lump in product and not in part...so yes, I would like for cylnder to follow the curve from cap and...
I would welcome some help in removing part in assembly.
I did managed to solve problem using GSD-part combination but I'm wondering is there a better way. My first part is eliptical cap (for gas containers) and the other is clynder.
What I need to do is cut cylnder bottom to match cap shape...
