Hi Paul,<br clear="none"><br clear="none">The question is anecdotal based on an off the cuff thought of upsizing the shell O.D. to 42" from 36". I am very hesitant to do this do to weight and handling issues however, several members have made a compelling rationale r/t simple comfort. At 53 I'm 6' 190 lbs and should expect that L to W ratio to change by build time! <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">I have to think a bit about the shell thickness r/t welding and corrosion issues, but Depth no more than 350'. I seem to remember a cross section drawing of a T section somewhere with a simple L/W/H relationship to shell T, but can't find it again. <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">I'll take that pdf if you don't mind. I'm not at
home and won't be until later this week
to do some number crunching.<br clear="none"><br clear="none">Thanks Paul!<br clear="none"><br clear="none"><br clear="none">Joe<br clear="none"><br clear="none">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPad<a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" href="http://overview.mail.yahoo.com/?.src=iOS" target="_blank"><br clear="none">

<div><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Frame size and spacing is inter-related and there is no one answer. I have developed some models based on the European pressure vessel code PD5500 so running a new configuration is easy and surprisingly quick. PD5500 produces much lighter vessels than ASME VIII which is really aimed at chemical plant. In this way it is
more similar to military codes but it does rely on quality
assurance levels that do not generally come with home construction. So to
cater for this, you put a factor in. I apologise in advance for all of the calculations being in metric but give me info in either. </span></div><div><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I would need to know</span></div><div style="margin-left:38.4pt">
