Design of the tank legs in the mixing tank
Thread Content
Guys, please help me figure this out: for a tank with a diameter of 3.5 meters, a straight section height of 13 meters, and tank legs of 5.2 meters, how should the inclined supports be designed? Are there any relevant design manuals? Please recommend some. Thank you:handshake
5.2 meters is a bit high; I suggest adding an inter-column brace in the middle of the supports, with horizontal tie rods placed within that inter-column brace. Tie rods are also used at the upper and lower parts of the inter-column bracing.
Thank you, boss. There’s a tricky issue now: the client wants the tie rods to be 2 meters high, meaning the lowest point should be at a height of 2 meters. Equipment and walkways need to be installed beneath the tank legs. I initially placed them in the middle, but since the client made this requirement, I’m not sure how to proceed. If cross-shaped tie rods are used, what should be the appropriate angle?
Are there any relevant manuals or materials for reference?
Design a steel structure! Support the earrests!
It is recommended to use skirt seats or rigid ring-lug type supports.
I suggest dividing it into two sections; there should be I-beams at the 2m mark to form a frame, and the base of the tank should be placed on top of that. The four feet of the tank should be fitted with scissor gussets.
The layout of the factory area is already prepared; only legs of this kind are available
