Hello Sirs


Regarding
The calcualtion of spring constant at tank periphery for curb angle with roof & shell


I want the ref: Formula for the stresses and strain by Roarks and Roarks


If any one have this ref. please upload it to us



Thanks

Hi Nasr,

Does the Tank software not carry out appropriate calculations? As has been stated in a previous post the brothers Roark should not be used in isolation for the design of storage tanks. If you need to get hold of a copy then you should be able to order one on the internet. The full reference is 'Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain' by Warren C. Young ISBN-10: 0071210598, ISBN-13: 978-0071210591

TANK carries out the computations as set forth in API-650. I am unaware of a computation in this Code for a "spring constant" at the tank periphery for a curb angle at the roof/shell juncture.

Hello Sirs,

I know the spring constant calculation at tank periphery.

I perform roof design calculation in Staad Pro. and use the spring constant value in fix but support.
