    Weld Stress Calculations

    Uploaded by

    Michael Walters
    The document provides calculations for designing brackets that support bellows under pressure. It involves: 1) Calculating the pressure thrust based on design pressure, bellows dimensions and number of brackets 2) Determining the allowable weld stress based on the weld material properties 3) Calculating the normal and shear stresses on the weld and checking if they exceed allowable values 4) Checking if the minimum required weld length meets the current weld length on drawings 5) Verifying the tie rod strength by checking if the calculated force is less than the allowable design force
