Out side diameter of the vessel Do = inch


Inside diameter of the vessel Di = inch
Safe bearing load on concrete fb = 500 psi
Cantilever inside or outside, whichever is greater l1 = 5 inch
Dimensions, as shown on sketch above l2 = 2.75 inch
l3 = 2.25 inch
Moment at the base due to wind or earthquake M = 86400 ft.lb
Weight of vessel during operation or test W = 7500 lb
Circumference on O.D. of skirt Cs = 77 inch
Area within the skirt As = = 476 inch 2
Area of base ring AR = 0.7854 (D2o - D2i) = 574 inch 2
