Shims under a tall vertical vessel
Shims under a tall vertical vessel
(OP)
Hi,
I have a 180 foot stack, with total vertical load of 350 kips. There is a 10 inch grout circle around the anchor bolts and the vessel is 15 feet in diameter. My question is how to design the shim plates to level it. Do I put them midspan of the bolts or on each side of the bolt?
Thanks,

What are your seismic and wind (hurricane) limits/requirements?

If I located them, I'd probably put them near the anchor bolts.
