Description

This document shows the static analysis of the Spreader that will be used for the lifting of the storage tank, on the project Termotasajero 2 161.6 MW CFPP.

The spreader was fabricated with steel ASTM A36, assuming complete weld penetration. The analysis is made with the maximum load supported for the spreader: weight 41.5Ton.

The distribution of force used for the structure analysis is due to the Storage Tank
