Allowable load of Channel
Allowable load of Channel
(OP)
I want to make rectangular structure of channels how can i calculate the allowable load of channel. for example a tube bundle of heat exchanger is about 12 tonnes what size of channel be requred for this weight, what is calculation procedure






RE: Allowable load of Channel
Span of channels
Configuration of load
any wind load considerations
area of unit (bottom area and all sides)
support conditions of channels

RE: Allowable load of Channel
we want to design a trolley for transporting a tube bundle of heat
exchanger during annual turn around of our plant.i am a mechanical engineer
and not familiar with steel structure calculations.
Here is reply of your quiries
Span of Channels 2mX2m (Length X Width)
Load Configuration (say uniformly distributed load)
any wind load considerations (100 km/hr)
area of unit (bottom area and all sides)Sides 4Sqm
support conditions of channels (see sketch)
