Pressure Vessel: Yoke design
Pressure Vessel: Yoke design
(OP)
Hello everyone.
This is a new area for me and I have a basic question about the pressure vessel code. I am developing a project in pressure vessels according to Section VIII, however I have not found any information about Yokes or frames, which standard has to follow?
Thank you for your kind cooperation.

RE: Pressure Vessel: Yoke design
Yokes or frames are most typically for Division 3 vessels - and the rules for those are covered in Section VIII, Division 3.

I have checked the Section VIII, Division 3 and I have only found about wire-wound Yokes. However, I have not found rules for other types of Yokes.

I have found a brief quote KD-6 in VIII-3, however, I would like to know what rules of the division could be referred or applied to this quote.
