Looking for ANSI A58.1-72
Looking for ANSI A58.1-72
(OP)
I'm trying to compare the current wind loads to the design wind loads for some methane gas spheres. They were designed in 1978 so I'm assuming that the Building Code would have referenced the then-current standard, ANSI A58.1-72. If someone has a copy I'd like to get some information from it. Mainly the wind speed, formulas, and coefficients. Thanks in advance for your time.

If CBI built the sphere they should still have the original calculations for the sphere.
Your AI should be able to help get an U1 if the vessel was built under code.

Get a copy of the folowing
GB 12337 - 1998 STEEL SPHERICAL TANKS National Standard of the People's Republic of China
If you have STEEL SPHERICAL TANKS your live just got easer.
