Again, thanks! I would like to learn these things, is there a book or some litterature you can recommend that cover some of the equations and such you have used?
Hi, it is for a school project. The cylinder is part of a framework structure of subsea equipment. Additional lashing points was needed to be added to the product during transportation, so this clamp was developed.
Hi, I should have mentioned that the cylinder is vertical, the clamp may only slide downwards if the clamping force is not high enough.
The tensile force is without a safety factor around 12000N, worst case scenario would probably be to assume that this force acts straight downwards.
Assuming...
Hello, I have some questions regarding clamping force.
I have a two-piece cylindrical clamp which is to be clamped around a cylindrical part. It is a clamp installed on a product during transportation, where lashings go between the clamp and trailer.
The coefficient of friction and surface area...
