Synopsis
This updated edition fully illustrates every major aspect of
pressure vessel design. It combines the notes, graphs, tables,
figures, design data and equations engineers typically have
scattered among hundreds of publications. All procedures have
beeen developed and proven using actual design problems. The
techniques are easily repeatable and can be used in conjunction
with ASME, ASCE, UBC and AIC codes. The book includes: types of
loadings, failures and stress theories, and how they apply to
pressure vessels; procedures for designing typical components and
large openings in cylindrical shells, ring girders, davits,
platforms, bins and elevated tanks; techniques for designing
conical transitions, cone-cylinder intersections, intermediate
heads, flat heads and spherically dished covers; and the designs
of vessel supports subject to wind and seismic loads.
