Dear Friends
Does the seismic loading affect the shell wall thickness of horizontal pressure vessels ?

Thanks in advance.

Sometimes, when designing the vessel supports the local stresses in the shell due to seismic loadings are too large that vessel needs to be thickened in local area i-e you have to increase the shell thickness in the portion (at least) directly attached to the supports.
