    Bend Test for Aluminum Bronze

    We are preparing a PQR for welding Aluminum bronze and I am unsure if this material is too brittle to get face and root bends. We have materials for one "testing" and I am outside of USA and can't replace soon. Did anyone else have any luck with this and is there some justification to do...

    Overlapping limits of reinforcement between nozzles N1 and N2 detected - user intervention may be required

    Sharing my 2 cents on this deficency as there isnt much open documentation on the matter.

    What method of analysis is used to validate an offshore vessel is structurally sound?

    Howdie Structurally inclined friends. We are replacing an offshore separator, and our client wants us to run some type of additional structural analysis using their measured spectral accelerations. As is, we are accustomed to using ASCE-7 and our software Compress is set up for this. This...

    What seismic codes should be used for Vessels to be installed on Offshore Platforms?

    I am unsure if ASCE-7 is more suitable for onshore usage and if there is some ISO or API standard that are more suitable for this end case. I am totally ignorant or Norwegian or European codes, I'm not sure if they would be relevant to US companies either. Any advice on standards, or should...
