Solid Attachment on a Spherical Shell per PD 5500 section G.2.4:

Resultant Moment (from ML and MC):

= Sqrt( ML² + MC² ) = Sqrt( 568805² + 568805² ) = 804411 N-mm

At the edge of the Solid Attachment

Rectangular Attachment
ro = Sqrt(Cx * Cy) = Sqrt(10.000 *75.000 ) = 27.3861 mm

Sphere effective Outside Diameter:

= Do + 2.tpad = 1466.000 + 2 * 0.000 = 1466.0000 mm

Effective Sphere Wall Thickness:

= t + tpad - c = 10.000 + 0.000 - 0.000 = 10.0000 mm

Shell Mean Radius r:

= (Do+tpad-t+c) / 2 = (1466.000 +0.000 -10.000 +0.000 ) / 2 = 728.0000 mm

Sphere Membrane Stress:

= p * r / ( 2t) = 0.000 * 728.000 / (2*10.000 ) = 0.000 MPa

Graph dimensionless values:

s = 1.82 * ro/Sqrt(r * t) = 1.82 * 27.386 / Sqrt(728.000 *10.000 ) = 0.5842
Note: s = u in our case
