Tray Support Rings as External Pressure Stiffening Rings
(OP)
Does anyone have any opinions/tips regarding rerating an existing tower for F.V. by using Tray Supports as external pressure stiffening rings?
I am aware that the Tray Supports are subject to UG-29(a) and UG-29(c) in order to comply with code standards.
There is a previous thread with the same question:

Thus the tip is; tell 'em it is impossible without an Internal Inspx with the tower squeaky clean. No slimy lower sections allowed.
