High-pressure tank: are anchor bolts required?
Thread Content
Use a tank with a pressure of 5.0 MPa, a diameter of 2200, and a height of 4500; it is supported by a skirt base – are foundation bolts required for support?
The main function of foundation bolts is to resist wind and seismic forces and prevent overturning; it is necessary to determine through calculations whether they are needed and what size they should be
When it comes to safety, strict procedures and strict management are essential!
Atmospheric pressure tanks require foot bolts for support, let alone pressure tanks.
Even without considering wind loads, it still needs to be secured with anchor bolts, right?
You’ve already made pressure vessels capable of withstanding 50 kilograms of pressure – so do you still need anchor bolts? Isn’t there any verification or inspection process?
Of course it is necessary; otherwise, how can one resist overturning?
It’s definitely necessary; even if it’s not used, it still needs to be installed for wind and earthquake resistance, to serve a fixing purpose.
I need it, although the probability of using it is extremely low. In case something goes wrong, it could become a focal point, and by then it will be too late to regret it.
There is no need to use as many foundation bolts as in a tower; the foundation bolts are sufficient merely for fixing purposes.
