6.0 DESIGN CONDITIONS 6.1 Vertical Loads
6.1.1 Erected Weight The erected weight is the fabricated weight
of the vessel plus all of the removable internals, ladders,
platforms and pipe supports and all the items that are intended to
be erected with the vessel.
6.1.2 Empty Weight The empty weight is the weight of the vessel
plus all of the removable internals, ladders, platforms, insulation
and fireproofing. The weight does not include any liquid contents,
catalyst contents, or platform live loads.
6.1.3 Operating Weight The operating weight is the weight of the
vessel plus all of the removable internals, ladders, platforms,
insulation, fireproofing, design liquid level, catalyst contents
and attached piping weight and pipe supports. Normally 3% of the
fabricated weight is added by Mustangs Vessel Group to account for
the attached piping. An additional 10-20% allowance may be included
for attached piping where the weight is provided by vendor and not
by the Vessel Group. When preliminary vessel information is being
used, an additional 5-15% contingency, based on engineering
judgment, may also be added to account for changes in the vessel
weight. The operating weight does not include live or snow
load.
6.1.4 Field Test Weight The field test weight is the operating
weight of the vessel including the water required for hydrostatic
test in lieu of the design liquid level and catalyst contents.
6.1.5 Foundation Weight The foundation weight is the weight of
the foundation and weight of the soil above the foundation
6.1.6 Others Any eccentric loads, such as reboiler or other
equipment supported on the
side of the vessel, shall also be evaluated. All of the above
loads shall be considered as dead load for application of
concrete design load factors. Live loads or snow loads will
typically not control any part of foundation
design and may be ignored.
6.2 Wind Loads 6.2.1 General
The results from this section shall be compared to the Vessel
Group calculations to insure consistency within the company.
Vertical vessels with a total height to diameter (H/D) ratio equal
to or greater than 10 may vibrate due to vortex shedding effect. In
this case, forces should be obtained from the Vessel Group.

Contact the Vessel Group to verify banding thickness around
insulation. This is normally ignored in calculations, but it should
be checked when clearances are required.
6.2.2 Gust Effect Factor This factor can be calculated based on
the following table. The vessel shall be classified first as
flexible or rigid depending on the period of vibration Table 6-1
Classification of vertical vessel

For uniform vertical vessels, the natural period of vibration
may be calculated using the ASCE Guidelines for Seismic Evaluation
and Design of Petrochemical Facilities in accordance with the
following formula:

For more precise calculations and for non-uniform vertical
vessels, STAAD Pro may be used for generation of natural period and
seismic force. If available, the period may be obtained from the
Vessel Group.

Wind shear forces and moments may be calculated using this
effective diameter. If these calculations compare favorably with
the Vessel Groups computer results, the shears and moments can then
be used for the foundation design.
6.2.4 Detailed Procedure When more accurate loads are required
or the previous method is deemed to be unacceptable, wind loads may
be calculated using vessel orientation, platform drawings, and the
following criteria: Wind pressure on projected area of insulated
vessel times a cylindrical shape
factor. Flat surface wind pressure on platform plan area times
0.5-factor applied at
each platform. (This will account for all framing and hand
railing.) To approximate the effect of shielding, the degree of
platform used in determining platform plan area shall not exceed
180 for any platform except the platform at the top of the
vessel.
Wind pressure on ladder with cage (assume tributary width of
1.5-feet) with a 1.0-shape factor.
Wind pressure on largest vertical pipe (including insulation)
with a shape factor of 0.8.

When vessel orientation drawings are not available, the
following criteria shall be used for estimating platforms: A
minimum of one 3-0 wide platform, 2'-6" below each man-way, 15-feet
or
greater above grade shall be considered. One square platform at
the top of the vessel when job requirements dictate
(size depends on vessel diameter). A minimum of one platform
every 30-feet shall be taken into consideration. Platforms are
sized based on the following table:

Groups seismic shear and moment shall be multiplied by a factor
of 1.4 in order to convert from allowable stress level to strength
level. The results shall be compared to the Vessel Group
calculations to insure consistency within the company.
6.4 Piping Loads Forces due to thermal expansion of piping shall
be included in load combinations when judged significant. For
concrete design, piping thermal loads shall be considered as dead
load. Thermal loads will not normally be added to wind loads.
Overturning need not be checked for thermal loading.
7.0 LOAD COMBINATIONS 7.1 ASD Load Combinations
The following allowable stress design (ASD) load combinations
shall apply for soil bearing and pile capacities, unless job
specifications dictate otherwise. Factors shown are per ASCE 7,
modified per industry practice, and are given as an example.
Specific job criteria may result in different load combinations.
Table 7-1: ASD Combination loads
Description Load Combination
Operating weight 1.0DO
Operating weight + wind or seismic (operating)
1.0DO+1.0W or (0.7EO +0.14SDSDo) 0.9DO + 0.7EO

0.7EE
Test or erection weight + partial wind
1.0DTEST + 0.33W 1.0DEREC + 0.33W
Note that the 0.6 dead load factor does not apply for vertical
vessel foundation uplift combinations since the dead loads for
non-building structures are known to a higher degree of accuracy
than dead loads for buildings.
7.2 LRFD Load Combinations The following strength design (LRFD)
load combinations shall apply for reinforced concrete design unless
job specifications dictate otherwise. Factors shown are per ASCE 7,
modified per industry practice, and are given as an example.
Specific job criteria may result in different load
combinations.

Earthquake Spectral Response Acceleration for short periods.
If spectral short period acceleration, SDS, is less than 0.125,
the vertical component of seismic effects (+/- 0.2 SDS) can be
taken as zero. When applicable, all of the above combinations shall
also be evaluated for a buoyant condition (high groundwater
table).
8.0 ANCHOR BOLTS 8.1 General
Anchor bolt diameters selected by the Vessel Group shall be
checked by the Structural Technical Professional for tensile and
shear strength on the steel and concrete. It is desirable to select
an appropriate anchorage system to keep bolts out of the mat. The
Vessel Group often figures anchor bolt tension using the
Brownell-Young method (ASD), which commonly produces smaller
tension forces. This method may be utilized to avoid discrepancies.
The Mustang MathCAD template Brownell_Young1.mcd available on
myMustang can be used to quickly calculate the anchor bolt tension
of a skirted vertical vessel. The calculated factored anchor bolt
tension shall be converted to ASD prior to comparing with the
Brownell-Young. For non-galvanized anchor bolts, a corrosion
allowance of 3/16-in shall be subtracted from the bolt diameter.
The corroded diameter shall be used for calculating stress in the
bolt material. Bolt pullout and shear on concrete will not be
affected by corrosion. Neither an anchor bolt template nor anchor
bolt sleeves are required for vertical vessels unless specifically
requested by Client. Normal Mustang procedure is to utilize
galvanized A36 anchor bolts. All pre-tensioned anchor bolts shall
be high strength and all high strength anchor bolts shall be
pre-tensioned. Use Anchor Bolt Type PA (Mustang A.B. Schedule) for
all pretensioned bolts. For high strength anchor bolts, initial
bolt tension shall be 0.375Fu times the gross area of the bolt as
indicated by a required angle of nut rotation from a snug tight
condition, torque, or pretension value. A Mustang MathCAD template
A.B.Pre-tension V1.2.xmct, available on myMustang, can be used to
quickly calculate these values.

All pre-tensioned anchor bolts shall be installed with a bond
breaker (tape) that will prevent the grout or concrete from bonding
to the bolt throughout its stretched length (bottom of chair/base
plate to 1-in above the nut). Tape shall be of a non-water
absorbing material. Vessels over 150-ft in height or with a height
to diameter ratio (H/D) greater than 10 should have high strength
anchor bolts regardless of the stress in the bolts. Anchor bolts
shall project 2.5 times the bolt diameter above the vessel chair or
plate. Note that often a plate is provided above the chair, which
shall also be cleared.

provide enough development length for the vertical dowels above the
bottom of the bolt (see Figure 1) in accordance with ACI 318
Chapter 12. In some cases, it may be necessary to hook the dowels
at the top of the pedestal to effectively transfer the anchor bolt
tension load into the reinforcement. When using high strength
anchor bolts, hairpins or a second ring of dowels may be required
within a horizontal distance of one-half of the embedment depth of
the anchor bolt to transfer tensile forces. Required dowel

Figure 2 Typical reinforcement layout to tie pedestal to the
footing.
Recommended minimum pedestal reinforcement should be as
follows:
Squares up to 6-0 #4 vertical rebars with #3 Ties each at 12-in
maximum spacing
Octagons 6-0 3/8 to 8-5 3/8: 24 - #5 vertical rebars with #4

ties at 12-in maximum spacing
Octagons larger than 11'-8": #6 vertical rebars with #4 ties
each at 12-in maximum spacing
Pedestals for vertical vessel foundations need not be designed
as columns. Splice lengths for ties shall be class "B". The
reduction factors from ACI Section 12.2 are not normally applied.
The minimum splice length shall be 16-in. A double set of ties
shall be placed at top of pedestal to protect anchor bolts. Provide
minimum temperature top reinforcing steel #4 @ 12 C/C in orthogonal
directions for pedestals over 8-0.
10.0 FOOTING DESIGN 10.1 Sizing
Square footings are preferable to octagonal footings. Flat
dimension on octagons and overall dimension on squares shall be
sized in even 2-inch increments to facilitate the use of metal
forms. Rectangular or combined footings may be required in confined
areas, but should be avoided where possible. Adjusting the plot
plan coordinates in conjunction with piping layout may be an
acceptable solution in confined areas. The minimum footing
thickness for soil supported foundations shall be 15-in and the
minimum thickness for pile supported foundations shall be 18-in,
with 3-in incremental increases. The thickness selected shall be
checked for shear and tension in the concrete.
10.2 Stability Ratio Stability provisions outlined herein apply
to shallow foundations. Footings supported on piles should utilize
the tension capacity of piles. The minimum Stability Ratio for

loads other than earthquake shall be 1.5 or in accordance with
job specifications. For earthquake service loads, the minimum
Stability Ratio shall be 1.2 or in accordance with Job
Specifications. For a foundation with symmetrical and concentric
pedestal and footing, the overturning stability ratio may be
calculated as:

Equation 10-1
Where, b Dimension of the footing in the direction of
overturning moment, ft
e Eccentricity equal to the overturning moment at the base of
the footing divided by the total vertical load, ft
The stability ratio for sliding is defined as the passive soil
resistance plus the frictional resistance to sliding divided by the
maximum horizontal force applied to the foundation, for any given
loading condition. For estimating purposes, the following values
may be used if they are not provided in the Design Criteria or
Geotechnical Report. For cohesive soils: Cohesion: 500-psf (may be
taken as zero) Adhesion: 250-psf For cohesionless soils: Passive
Pressure Coefficient, Kp: 3.0 (may be taken as zero) Soil to
Concrete Friction: 0.5
10.3 Soil Bearing Soil bearing values shall be calculated using
allowable stress combinations specified in Section 7.1, The maximum
soil bearing pressure shall be checked on the diagonal axis. Soil
bearing pressure used for reinforcing design shall be computed on
the normal axis (on the flat). When applicable, all load
combinations shall be evaluated for a buoyant condition when a high
groundwater table is encountered. The minimum factor of safety for
buoyancy shall be 1.2 under unfactored service loads. Any increase
in allowable soil bearing pressure for wind, seismic, or thermal
load combinations shall be based on Project Design Criteria and
recommendation by the Geotechnical Consultant. The soil bearing
pressure may be computed using Figure 3, when the entire octagonal
footing area is not in compression (e/D > 0.122 on the diagonal
and e/D > 0.132 on the flat). When the entire square footing
area is not in compression (e/D > 0.118 on the diagonal and e/D
> 0.167 on the flat), the soil bearing pressure may be computed
using Figure 4 or Mustangs MathCAD template (Fdnstd Version
2.1.xmcd). When the entire footing area is in compression, the soil
bearing pressure shall be computed using the combined stress
formula: S.B. = P/A M/S.

10.5 Reinforcing and Stresses 10.5.1 General
Footing reinforcing shall be checked for both minimum shrinkage
and temperature requirements and for minimum flexural reinforcing
requirements of ACI 318 chapter 15. The minimum bottom (and top, if
required) footing reinforcing shall be #5 at 12-in. Top reinforcing
shall be provided for combined foundations. When supporting two or
more vertical vessels on a common mat in a seismic zone, the
footing shall be checked for a possible loading case where the
vessels are vibrating out of phase.
10.5.2 Moment and Shear in Footing Shear and bending moments
shall be computed based on the actual soil bearing pressure as
specified in Section 10.3 of this guideline, then factored by the
appropriate design load factors. For square pedestals, the critical
section for moment and rebar development shall be at the face of
the pedestal and for octagonal pedestals, the critical section for
moment and rebar development shall be at the face of a square of
equivalent area. Moment and rebar development shall be checked at
the face of the equivalent square. Beam shear shall be checked at a
distance d from the face of the pedestal (use an equivalent square
for octagonal shapes) in accordance with ACI 318, section 11 and
15. Two-way (punching) shear shall be checked at a distance d/2
from the face of the pedestal (use an equivalent square for
octagonal shape) as applicable per ACI 318, Section 11.11. For
shear and moment calculations, a unit width strip designed as a
simple cantilever from the equivalent square shall be used. The
resulting reinforcing steel shall be placed continuously across the
entire footing width in a grid pattern with orthogonal rebars for
loads along the other axis.
10.5.3 Top reinforcement Top reinforcement in the footing is not
necessary if the factored flexural moment of the footing does not
exceed the nominal flexural strength of the structural plain
concrete as follows:

Footings shall either be thickened or reinforcing placed at the top
of the footing if required. Footings greater than 24-in thick and
pile caps shall have top reinforcing. Where seismic effects create
tensile stresses, provide top reinforcement.

The vessel must be classified as rigid or flexible in order to
calculate the correct gust factor. Also, thevessel can be checked
for dynamic effects (vortex shedding and ovaling) based on
ASME-STS-1-05. (Thisis normally done by Vessel Group rather than
Civil Group)

2.2 Wind responses - Vortex Shedding
A rule of thumb to address this problem is provided in the
design guideline to classify a verticalvessel as sensitive to this
dymanic effect. If H/D > 10, the vessel needs to be analyzed for
vortexshedding effects in accordance with the procedure on
ASME-STS-1.Using this rule of thumb for this example, H/D=70/14=5
and therefore vortex shedding may need notbe analyzed. This is
normally addressed by Vessel Group in an accurate approach.
2.3 Wind Load Calculation (ASCE 7-05)
- Vessel period T = 0.27 seconds < 1.0 seconds, therefore the
vessel is rigid. - For rigid vessels, the gust factor can be 0.85
and ASCE 7-05 procedure can be used. - See attached MathCAD
template for calculations.

thetensile strength should be very similar to ACI-318 App.D, using
A se with the net tensile area and the tensile strenght F uta
(butminimum 1.9Fy or 125 ksi). See commentary on ACI 318, section

On pedestals, it is usually better to transfer the forces to the
vertical dowels (development length) - see ACI318 D.5.2.9 - instead
of providing enough edge distance and using the effective depth as
per ACI 318D.5.2.3. See EG-1903 Design Guideline for additional

Soil bearing needs to be checked for all load combinations. For
this example, onlyone case will be checked:

Because the previous assumption (linear distribution of pressure
at the bottom) is conservative, use afactor of 1.5 to convert the
pressure from working stress to LRFD, or calculate the pressure
using factoredforces (Pu = 1.2*P, M u = 1.6Mwind, for example).
Using a factor of 1.5 for this example, we have....

Reinforced is required at the top due to seismic provisions for
this example. The use of Figure 8 and 9 onEG 1903 is shown here for
