Procedure 4-11 Design of Saddle Supports for Large Vessels

Procedure 4-11 Design of Saddle Supports for Large Vessels [4,15-17,20] 

Fl = maximum longitudinal force due to wind, seismic, pier deflection, etc. (see Procedure 4-10 for detailed description) 

Fa = allowable axial stress, psi Fb = allowable bending stress, psi Ft = transverse wind or seismic load, lb N = number of anchor bolts in the fixed saddle at = cross-sectional area of bolts in tension, in.  

T = tension load in outer bolt, lb ni = modular ratio, steel to concrete, use 10 Fb = allowable bending stress, psi Fy = yield stress, psi fh = saddle splitting force, lb fa = axial stress, psi fb = bending stress, psi fu = unit force, Ib/in. 

M = bending moment, or overturning moment, in.-lb 1 = moment of inertia, in.
