Hello, I have a question regarding the methodology for using line loads for calculating stresses in lifting lugs in the head of vertical pressure vessels. We recently have compared our methodology to EN-13445-3 (via COMPRESS). We found that the equivalent calculation diameter from EN-13445-3...

Thank you for the information, this is very helpful

Thanks for the information so far, though it is still isn't very clear to me whether or not the repad for the lifting lug should be constrained to be thinner or thicker than the thickness of the shell.

Just looking for some opinions from the community, Specifically lift lugs with repads, but also repads in general: - MechE #1 has rule of thumb “repads should not be thicker than shell/head they are attached to. This is to avoid local stiff areas and stress risers” - MechE #2 says it doesn’t...
