The Guide-Framing of Gasholders and Other Papers (Classic Reprint): Chiefly Relating to Strains in Structures Connected With Gas-Works: Chiefly ... Connected with Gas-Works (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book presents an investigation into the various types of stress and strain on various parts of a gasholder. The author presents a variety of mathematical formulas to assess the forces acting on a gasholder in different configurations. The guiding principle of the text is to determine the degree to which guide-framing that supports a gasholder can be reduced. The author argues that the current methods of guide-framing are excessive and can be reduced without compromising the structural integrity of the gasholder. The author presents a simple rule to determine the stability of the inner lift when cupped within the framework. The author also includes several detailed diagrams to illustrate the various forces acting on the gasholder and the internal stresses on the structure. This book will be of great interest to engineers and designers of gasholders or similar structures.
