Thanks boo1/Mighty, like I said this is just a "guide" for calculations because I couldn't find anything else that was specific to this application. I noticed the MH16.1 referenced ASCE 7 several times and tried to looked through it too, for more information, but I couldn't do so for less than...
Hello,
I've been asked to determine the max load for a set of fabricated steel racks. I've searched around for an answer to my question and believe I should use the ANSI MH16.1-2012 standard as my guide for these calculations. I just want to verify that this is correct?
Thanks
Hello. I recently left a company where I was doing machine design work for a piece of equipment that would give the company a competitive advantage in their market. I did sign a confidentiality agreement also.
I believe I could make several improvements to the machine that would make it safer...
The bearing is too big for the load? Dimensionally too big? The shaft size is as small as I can get with the deflection seen at that load... this is using a 17-PH material also.
I am using a SKF 22207E spherical bearing with a SKF N 207 ECP in a cantilever arrangement. With my setup I am placing approximately 4100 lbf of radial load on the 22207E bearing, when I am using the calculator on SKFs website I get a rolling frictional moment of 2.34lbf. Now I have a moment...
Hello. I have an application where an aluminum 6061 core is slid onto a 17-4PH shaft, the shaft and core rotate together as the shaft locks the core into place. I am seeing a "pitting" right where the end of the core mates against the 17-4PH chamfer... what causes this? There is a hysteresis...
Hello,
I am in the process of selecting a bearing for a tension control application and came across a question I would like to bounce of someone. Say I have a cylindrical roller bearing with a radial force of 4000lbf. Assuming everything else remains the same I increase the radial force to...
Hello,
Could anyone provide me with a design methodology that they used when selecting materials (pipe mainly) for a process water loop according to the B31.3 specification? I have a prcoess water loop that has been in service for 30 years that will soon be replaced, traditionally we would just...
Hello,
I have a drawing from Germany with this material called out "3.1645 AlCuMgPb". I am wondering what this would be comprable to? The International Registration Record (AA) U.S.A. Specs calls this a "2007" material? Any help would be appreciated.
