Calculation of tower wall thickness?
Thread Content
Hello, dear sea friends! I recently built an empty tower with a diameter of 1200 and a height of 14000. The pressure is at atmospheric pressure and the temperature is at room temperature. Is 8mm wall thickness small or not?
1. If the height is greater than 10 meters and the height-to-diameter ratio is greater than 5, the design pressure for your equipment should be set at 0.1 MPa； 2. In addition to strength calculations, checks for wind loads on tall towers and **loads must also be carried out ； 3. The wall thickness is related to the material selection ； 4. Design and manufacturing must comply with GB150. Hope this helps!
