Hi All,
I am currently working on a project where I need to assess the cast iron shaft linings (rings) for a vertical load of 14kN.
Basically the beams are sitting on these cast iron rings that has a 100mm bearing and are 25mm thick (see the images below).
The shear force from the beam is 14kN (factored) applied on these rings. Can someone suggest me how can I assess these rings to ensure that the capacity is okay?
Note that I am in the UK and appreciate if someone knows any relevant British Standard for this.
Many Thanks,
Oltar
