Saddle support design calculation formula. Parametric formulae were developed and validated with examples. upon L. Apr 10, 2025 ยท This approach simplifies the complex reality of pressure vessel behaviour under load by using empirical formulas to calculate the bending stresses, shear stresses, and local shell stresses caused by the saddle supports. In both cases one calculation is made with design pressure (P ≠ 0) and one without design pressure (P = 0). This paper contains proper methodology to design the saddle and also consider the generated stresses. The “Anchor bolts” option allows you to set and calculate the fastening of the support to the foundation under external loads (weight, seismic, wind, temperature loads). Perform analysis of a horizontal vessel supported on two saddles. A complete analysis is also performed on the. Zick's analysis procedure. loads on the vessel. The spreadsheet allows engineers to efficiently design saddle supports by automating stress calculations based on input parameters like load locations and magnitudes. It also contains analysis for stresses given by Zick scientist. The program allows the user. Saddle is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. . The saddle supports are calculated for operating and testing loads. It requires MS Excel. They found that the high localized stress arising from saddle support can be reduced by using a clearance - fit saddle support. wear plate.
