Self supporting cone roof loading conditions
Self supporting cone roof loading conditions
(OP)
Hello All
I am working on a tank that has self supporting cone roof. There are already 3 nozzles installed on the roof. I want to install a new nozzle. So, my question is how do I calculate maximum load that I can put on the roof before it starts bending/deforming? It is an atmospheric tank. Thanks

You could use WRC 107/297 as an approximation, or use FEA.
