Hi there,

I would like to know if anybody has any experience with FRP Tanks and if there is a simple method for determining or calculating the flexibility factors (axial, bending, and torsional) for FRP tank nozzles, because WRC-107/297 is inapplicable, since WRC-107/297 was based on the assumption of perfectly elastic behavior of the material.

Thanks and Best Regards,
