Geometrical information on steel heads

Geometrical information on steel heads

(OP)
Hi everybody,
Is there any reliable source where I can retrieve some valuable geometrical information on 1)SMALL KNUCKLE RADIUS DISHED STEEL HEADS (Thickness up to 50 mm), 2)TORISPHERICAL STEEL HEADS (Thickness up to 50 mm), 3)ELLIPTICAL 2:1 STEEL HEADS.?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Geometrical information on steel heads

(OP)
Thank you gr2vessels.
It's a good source but it doesn't comprise details on lets say, the knuckle radius, crown radius e.t.c of a torispherical head. Could you propose another one.?
Thank you in advance!!!

RE: Geometrical information on steel heads

For "small knuckle" heads (ie, "non-code" heads), the knuckle radius will vary according to the supplier, and you should contact the actual supplier in question for dimensions.  Standard flange length will also vary.

The torospherical heads are available in different radius configurations, and once again, you'd need to check with your head supplier for common dimensions.
