Hi,
I require some reference on the design on a blind flange with cruciforms. This particular flange is used to blank off a piping system and, thus we would like to reduce costs by not using forgings. Therefore, we opted for the use of a 50mm plate as a blind flange and re-inforce it with diagonal cruciforms. The problem is to check what size cruciform will be adequate to withstand the internal pressure. If anyone has a spreadsheet it would be appreciated. Feel free to e-mail me at davidr@absamail.co.za.
Thanks and regards
