Hi all,
We are in the process of ordering a Heat Exchanger. The heat exchanger is vertical and supported by two lug supports. The vendor has given us a foundation loads table. In this table the vendor has mention wind/earthquake shear and wind/earthquake moment.
I understand how the shear...
Hi all,
We are currently in the process of ordering a div. II heat exchanger from a vendor. As per table 7.2 of ASME Div. II, some welds require PT/MT inspection. The code however fails to mention if the PT/MT is to be done on either root pass or final pass or both. This is where we are...
Hi all,
I am doing calculations on expansion bellow design to verify a vendor's expansion bellow, I have done almost everything else but, I can't find any way or formula to calculate the lateral, angular and torsional spring rates of expansion bellow. There is a formula written for the axial...
Hi,
Its been while that I have found myseld stuck whenever I look at the weld strength calculation of ASME VIII Div. 1. First, I kind of see the reason behind it, but cant for the life of me figure out the failure path except for the 2-2(kindly see the attached pic), kindly help me figure out...
Hi,
I am a newbie in connection design so kindly bear with me. I want to deisgn a steel connection between a beam and column, I am going through the examples in AISC but nowhere have I seen them design a connection for weak axis moment/shear, or when moment/shear exist in strong and weak both...
