Can anyone please advise for EN 14015 Annex G - Recommendations for seismic provisions for storage tanks, Section G.2.3.1, what the range of values are for the lateral force coefficient G1. i.e. What are the lowest and highset values. Does anyone know what the lateral force coefficient G1...

I have read and read eurocode 8 EN1998-1 seismic loads sections 2 to 4 and cannot seem to determine factors to use for a saddle supported vessel.

Can anyone explain the Bednar example 5.2 calculation of the gusset plate radius of gyration r = 0.289 x 0.625 I am not clear where these numbers are coming from in the example and what radius of gyration equation is being used here for the gusset plate. I thought the radius of gyration was...

I made a mistake quoting AISC 5.2. The PVElite2004 manual does not mention AISC 5.2.

Thanks Shmulik and nuche1973 for quick response. I have looked and applied Bednar formula and it comes out with a thickness of 13mm compared to the PVElite2004 program thickness based on AISC of 18mm. I am not familiar with AISC. In the PVElite2004 manual, it makes mention of AISC 5.2, which I...

Does anyone have the AISC formula used to calculate the gusset plate thickness for a support bracket with two gusset plates and a top plate and base plate. In particular the one used in PVElite2004 program.
