Empty weight of vessel = weight of shell + weight of dished head + weight of manhole flanges &
other connections

Empty weight of vessel = 296.4+ (134x2)+(98+47.63)

= 710 kg approx 750kg

Total weight of vessel = 750 kg = 7354.99 N

Seismic (as per Dennis Moss)

Ch = seismic factor = 0.16 (zone 2 as per national standard)

Wo= operating weight of vessel, N

Wo = 7354.99 N

FL = longitudinal force due to wind, seismic, expansion, contraction, etc., N

Ft = transverse force, wind or seismic, N

Ls = saddle center to center distance, mm

Q = total load per saddle, N

LONITUDINAL FORCES,FL

FL= ChWo

FL= 0.16x7354.99

FL= 1176.80 N

Longitudinal, Q1

Q1 = Wo/2 + (FLB)/Ls

Q1 = 7354.99/2 + (1176.80x775)/950

Q1 = 4637.51 N

TRANSVERSE FORCES, Ft per saddle

Ft= (ChWo) 0.5

Ft= 0.16x7354.99x0.5

Ft = 588.4 N

Transverse, Q2

Q2 = Wo/2 + (3FtB)/Ls

Q2= 7354.99/2 + (3x588.4x775)/950

Q2= 5117.53N

Total saddle reaction forces Q

Q = greater of Q1 or Q2

Taking larger value of Q1 and Q2

So that Q = Q2 = 5117.53 N
