According to IS 875:1987 types of loads acting on a structure are Dead loads : Dead loads are permanent or stationary loads which are transferred to structure throughout the life span. Dead load is primarily due to self-weight of structural members, permanent partition walls, fixed permanent equipment and weight of different materials. The calculation of […]
OIL & GAS OFFSHORE PLATFORMS
These platforms are used either for drilling wells or as support for production wells or for both. There are several types and the choice is made based on usage, environmental conditions. Offshore platforms may be broadly classified into two types. − Piled Platforms: All steel towers fall under this category. These platforms are essentially made […]

Isometric Dimensions, Notes, And Callouts
Length dimensions and informational notes or callouts are used on isometrics to define the pipe’s exact routing through a facility. Placement of dimensions on the drawing establishes precise lengths between fittings, valves, equipment connections, etc. Information such as coordinates, elevations, nozzle projection, pipe size, and pound rating are used to calculate lengths of a run of pipe. […]
Piping Sections and Elevations: What are they?
The word elevation has a literal meaning of “height above sea level.” Both sections and elevations provide height measurements from an object to the ground(grade).
