Hi!,
While performing basering analysis for a vessel in Analyze Option
the result is as below:
Required Area for Each Bolt, Based on Max Load 7.2919 cm²
Area Available in a Single Bolt (Corr) 3.5548 cm²
Area Available in all the Bolts (Corr) 42.6580 cm²
Bolt Stress Based on Approximate Analysis 285.7 N./mm²
Allowable Bolt Stress 139.3 [Fact] 139.279 N./mm²
i.e Insufficient Anchor bolt area.
and with the same inputs i tried Brownell & Young analysis method, the results with this analysis is passed.
Please advice if i can use the Brownell & Young analysis method instead of only Analyze option.
Is there any criteria to use any of the above methods?
Thanks in advance for your time in this matter.
Best Regards.
