How to Treat Live Loads on Vertical Vessel Platforms: A Guide to Static and Seismic Stability Analysis
During vertical static equipment design, upon modeling platforms, engineers must carefully differentiate between live loads (such as personnel, equipment, and operational materials) and platform weight. These loads must be treated in specific ways depending on the analysis case being considered. This article will explore two main cases for handling live loads on vertical vessel platforms: Case 1, […]
