Skirt Data :
Skirt Outside Diameter at Base SOD 3509.9495 mm.
Skirt Thickness STHK 40.0000 mm.
Skirt Internal Corrosion Allowance SCA 0.0000 mm.
Skirt External Corrosion Allowance 1.5000 mm.
Skirt Material SA-283 C
Note: This analysis is based on Neutral Axis shift method for Steel on
Concrete (or a material with significantly different Young's modulus).
PV Elite has 2 different design methods for computing the required thickness of Basering supports.
The approximate method simply calculates the compressive load on the concrete assuming that the neutral
axis for the vessel is at the centerline.
when a steel skirt and base ring are supported on a concrete foundation, the behavior of the foundation is
similar to that of a reinforced concrete beam. If there is a net bending moment on the foundation, then the
force upward on the bolts must be balanced by the force downward on the concrete. But because these two
materials have different modulas of elasticity, and because the strain in the concrete cross section must be
equal to the strain in the base ring at any specific location, then the neutral axis of the combined
bolt/concrete cross section will be shifted in the direction of the concrete.
For baserings that are located on a steel substructure the recommendation is to use the simplified method.
Otherwise for the traditional basering on concrete use either method.

By itration method
Initially Compressive stress on concrete at bolt circle dia. is assumed & fs is taken as bolt allowable tensile stress
Than k is calculated

Based on above factors & Eq. 10.24 & 10.27 we have to find tensile force Ft & compressive force Fc
Than with eq. no. 10.30 is used to find eq. no. 10.30
Nomenclature:
a = ( Dc-Ds )/2 Skirt Distance to Bolt Circle
P = Sa * Abss Maximum Load on one Bolt
l = Avgwdt Average Gusset Width
g1 = Gamma 1 Constant Term f( b/l )
g2 = Gamma 2 Constant Term f( b/l )
g = Flat distance / 2 Nut 1/2 Dimension (from Tema)
Fb Allowable Bending Stress
Note if value b/l is coming less than 1.Than invert b/l to l/b & find values of gama 1 & 2

There are two different equation for Mx & My based on this ratio b/l it will govern
b/l = 1 than Mx = My
Stpe -7 Skirt thickness due to reaction of bolting chair & compression ring
Req. Skirt Thk. to withstand Local Bending, (Brownell and Young) [t]:
= 1.76 * ( P*a/( m * ( h + tba ) * 1.5 * Sktope) )2/3 * r1/3 + Ca
= 1.76*(38424*105.025/(417.38*254.00*1655))2/3*1754.971/3+Ca
= 36.985 + 1.500 = 38.485 mm.
Required Thickness of Skirt for Local Stress 38.4846 mm. from step - 7
Given Thickness of Skirt 40.0000 mm.
Required Gusset Height to meet local stress 187.8270 mm.
So first we will find actual load on weld joint than based on allowable shear stress = 0.4 * yield stress
Based on actual load & allowable shear stress we will find required weld size.
Results for Computed Minimum Gusset and Top Plate to Skirt Weld Size
Results for Computed Min Gusset and Top Plate to Skirt Weld Size [GsWeld]
= Wr / [( 0.4 * Yield ) * 2 * 0.707]
= 69.19 / [( 0.4 * 1912 ) * 2 * 0.707]
= 6.398 mm.
Results for Computed Min Gusset to Top Plate Weld Size [GtpWeld]
= Wr / [( 0.4 * Yield ) * 2 * 0.707]
= 103.49 / [( 0.4 * 1912 ) * 2 * 0.707]
= 9.570 mm.
Note: The calculated weld sizes need not exceed the component thickness
framing into the weld. At the same time, the weld must meet a minimum size
specification which is 3/16 in. (4.76 mm) or 1/4 in. (6.35 mm), depending
on the component thickness.
