Can the equipment engineering field be used to design steel structure maintenance platforms?
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts here: Is it possible for those in the equipment field to design steel structure maintenance platforms? If so, which standards should be followed for such design? Are there any regulations regarding height and load capacity for steel platform structures designed for industrial equipment? , it can still only be the civil engineering department that handles the design.
The platform attached to the equipment is designed by the equipment specialists.
Generally, we define it in this way: platforms that are rooted in the equipment are handled by the equipment itself, such as tower platform or bedroom container platform; whereas platforms that are rooted in the ground or steel structure are handled by the structural engineering team. The height of the platform should be determined based on the layout of your equipment, the arrangement of pipes and their orientation, operational requirements, as well as other practical considerations. The load capacity is also determined according to relevant needs; for example, a maintenance platform must take into account the weight of parts, components, valves, etc., that need to be handled during maintenance, while an inspection platform may only need to accommodate the weight of personnel (usually around 2000 N).
The definition generally refers to what is mentioned on the second and third floors; when designing, we usually follow or refer to the following standards: HG/T21543； GB4053.1 ； GB4053.2 ； GB4053.3。
According to some professional reference books on piping design, the design of steel structure platforms is carried out entirely by the \"piping design specialists\", who determine the size, ladders, and loads that the structures must withstand. Platforms that are rooted to the equipment are constructed by the equipment itself, such as tower platforms or container platforms for bedrooms; whereas platforms that are rooted to the ground or steel structures are built by the civil engineering team. “For pipeline design, the design platform is used; the reference specifications include SH3011, Technical Tutorial on Pressure Pipeline Design, and Examples of Process Pipeline Design, etc
With the right capabilities, even rockets can be designed.
In a team, it is necessary to have clear divisions of labor
