SACS Training project
This project provides the general information for the SACS training. The material can be
used for basic and advanced SACS training seminar. All the data and drawings included
in this document are for training proposes only, and none of them can be used in any
real design project.
Structure
The training project is a four legged wellhead platform with four conductors and a two-
lever deck located in an unknown area with water depth of 79.5 meters, see drewings
included in this document.
Design codes
API RP 2A 21" Edition with Supplement1, 2 and 3 published in 2007

Design loads
Equipment loads:
There are four equipment skids on the decks and the locations are shown in Drawing
201. The weights of the equipment are listed in the following table.

*C.G height is in +Z direction, relative to the surface of the skid.
Deck loads:
The main deck area load: 0.75kN/m*2
Cellar deck area load: —0.5kN/m*2

The main deck live load: 5.0kNim*2
The Cellar deck live load: 2.5kN/m*2
Appurtenant structure loads:
Design specifcation- 2SHRAD Services Sdn. Bhd, Training Brief 2012
Walkway & staircase on the main and cellar decks are equally distributed weight at
weight value of 2.773 kN/m on the east side of both the cellar & main deck members.
A pedestal crane is located on the northeast leg at the main deck at a weight of
88.964kN
A firewall is located between on the cellar deck north legs at 1.5m north of the lags with
total weight of 45 kN that can be equally distributed as concentrated load of 15kN on the
support beams.
Four jacket lifting padeyes each weighing 2kN are to be installed on the jacket at
elevation 3m above the mean sea level.
The sea deck walkway at boat landing elevation (EL 2.0m) are supported by alll the
members at EL 2.0 plan except the wellbay members with a uniform distributed weight
of 1.5kN/m and assumed density of 1.5ton/m?3 for buoyancy calculation.
The jacket is protected from corrosion using zinc anodes weighing 2.5 kN each and 2
anodes installed on all primary structural members below the splash zone confined by
the highest X-brace center in the splash zone.
The weights of the appurtenant structures should be included in the model including the
unmodelled J-tubes and risers.

Section 4 Create conductor guide framing
Use Plan at EL-50.0 as a sample:
Step 1 Create the joints to connect the conductor guide
Divide members 2107-2109, 2108-2110 by ratios to create joints 2111 and 2112;
Add members 2107-2108, 2109-2110, and 2111-2112 and then divide them by ratios to create
joint 2113, 2114, and 2115.
Connect members 2113-2115 and 2115-2114.
Step 2 Define member group for conductor guide frame
Use “Property” > “Member Group” to define the group property for the conductor guide
frame. The conductor and frame connection model is shown in the picture below.

Repeat Step 5 to build the X-brace between Elevation -21.0m and 2.0m. The new center joint
name should be 301X; group IDs should be BRS for through members and BR6 for others.
The locations of center joints 101X, 201X and 301X are automatically calculated by the
program,
Step 7
Repeat Step 1 to Step 6 to build X-braces on Row B, Row | and Row 2; use same Grow IDs and
the center joint ID starts from 102X on Row B, 103X on Row 1 and 104X on Row 2.
Step 8
Define the group properties for the X-brace members. BR1, BR3, and BRS are through members
which are segmented. BR2, BR4, and BR6 are non-segmented members. The dimensions of all
members can be found in Drawing 101

Step 2
Define the accelerations: Use
“Environmental” > “Loading” >
“Weight”: Check off Acceleration and
define 1.0g in Z direction for load condition
AREA, EQPT, LIVE and MISC.
Picture on the right shows the sample of
load case AREA.
Step 3

Select weight group AREA, EQPT, LIVE
and MISC to be included in load case. Use
Load condition AREA, EQPT, LIVE and
MISC respectively.

fouled members. All the members have
same Cd and Cm,

Overrides”
Override the jacket leg members with group
ID LGI-LG3 That need to take into account
the load increase due to the appurtenant
structures like J-tubes and Risers.
Highlight groups LG1-Lg3 that the
overrides need to be added to. The picture occa eee

coefficients have been factored by 1.5 to =
account for the load increases.

Jacket weight groups ANOD and WKWY should be included in all three load cases by using
“Environment” > “Loading” > “Weight” > “Include Weight Group” to account for weight,
buoyancy and wave/current loads.

Extreme Storm (three directions considered: 0,00, 45.00, 90,00): load case $000, S045 end $090
Extreme storm load cases can be defined similar as the operating storm load eases, except 100-
year storm criteria are used to generate the environmental forces, Jacket weight groups ANOD
and WKWY should be included in all three load cases. The water depth should be overridden to
consider the high tide. The following pictures show the detailed input data from the
Specification.

Section 15 Load combination and code check options
Step 1 Load combination
Six load combinations OPR1, OPR2, OPR3, STM1, STM2 and STM3 will be added into the
model. Three of them are corresponding to operating storms and the other three are
corresponding to extreme storms. Load factor of 1.1 will be used for environmental loads. The
live load will be included with a factor of 0.75 in extreme storm load combinations.
Go to “Load” > “Combine load conditions” to define the load combinations. The following
two pictures show the combinations of operating and extreme storm conditions,
