SHELL FINAL THICKNESS 5

[Lord Ets]

Good day, Engineers!

For example, I already designed the tank with 1 foot method and Annex V at API 650. The thickness are 12mm, 10mm, 8mm, and 8mm. The tank has roof frame without column and has agitator at the center. Is there any other computation for additional thickness for shell plates or to check if the shell plates can carry the vertical loads like roof frame without column, and an agitator at the center.

Thank you, Engineers! God bless.

Lord Ets ...

Our interaction has nothing to do with Karma ... I wish you no harm, I have done nothing and I am sorry that I have offended you with my implied tone and word usage

You go to the Eng-tips website and ask a group of cranky retired strangers what their opinion is on a certain technical matter

They tell you ...

You ask them to to work for you, to educate you.. to expend their valuable time explaining things to you

They do ...

You pay nothing .... you offer nothing except more questions.

I am sorry about your personal situation, but many of us have been there too.... In the mid 1970s I have been broke with a wife and child to support and had to find a new job in a new state and new city with no money.

We have cautioned you about your boss and how he will try to control the design yet pin all responsibility on you ...

Perhaps you should look for another website where you can get superb quality advice and your feelings will not be hurt...

My opinion only

We like to help people who came with pointed question, took the advice, and show progress before bring on the next question. You have a series of questions, but zero progress. You shouldn't stop work because the inaction, and lack of attention, from your boss, instead you should come up a frame work for him to comment on. He's job is managing, not babysitting.
