Hello everyone,

I am about to design LNG base fuel tank for vehicles . It is vacuum jacket fuel tank.
Now I need guidance to calculate maximum clamping force & torque to not cause unacceptable stress in tank or damage to the tank surface.

Please help.

If the tank mfr or whoever sold you the tank can't provide that info I'd send it back for a refund.
