Hi everyone, I have to determine the size of safety valve for an air pressure vessel. I found in ASME and BS 5500 a procedure to calculate the size of safety valve, which relates the mass flow capacity to the: pressure, temprature, discharge area, s.v coefficient, and air parameters. This can...

Hi everyone, I am from the previous generaion of engineers, prior to the FEA widely usage.I intend to study (by myself) this subject, and I wish to get your proffessional recommendations/tips for basic books that I can study from (basic principles, easy to understand, includes examples &...

Hi everyone, Recently I faced a problem in calculating bending stress in a long UPN profile "flange" due to concentrated force. It seems that the regular/familiar formula for bending stress in a finite/short element does not applicable in local bending of long/infinite beam. See sketch attached...

Hi everyone, I was looking for a std to calculate stability of truck mounted crane. Recently I found an australian std "australian code of practice for crane installation on truck" (I think it is a part of 1418 au std), and I found it simple and practical. But, when I tried to solve the example...

Hi to everyone, I have a problem with sizing pipe threaded elements. I am looking for guide rules that with simple external meassurement I'll be able to determine the element size such as safety valves,threaded pipes,pressure gages,caps etc. To clarify my question, hereby an example, when I...

Hi, I have read Lift-it catalogue and I found out it is very professional and useful . I have some questions in the subject and I'll be grateful for professional answers. I found out that there is a direct relationship between SWL and the width of the strip (1600 lbs/in of width for nylon...

Dear sir I found out that some of the hooks (crosby's & other's) are marked with two numbers separated by hyphen such as 13-8, 10-8, 7/8-8. What these numbers (the first number and the second number) mean? Is these numbers come from standard requirement? If positive – please note the standard...

Hi to all I am looking for a comprehensive handbook/books/guides dealing with lifting equipment information (lifting capacities formulas,testing loads and practical/field methods). In lifting equipment I distinguish between two levels: 1)level a= shakles,hooks,eye-bolts,rings,chains,cables etc...
