Shipping Support Post Review Colin Narug 6/6/2019
Summary During the shipping of the cold mass, support used to hold up cold mass Cold Mass supported at three locations Support post held and isolated at the internal shipping frame Cold mass has a mass of 15,590 kg Load of 53,731 N at front and back posts Load of 49,188 N at middle post Post must survive 5G of acceleration Does this value include any safety factors Calculations include built in safety factors 10/13/201910/13/2019
53,731 Vertical and Horizontal load, Scaled Summary M12 Bolt Shear Limit = 2.728 g 53,731 Vertical and Horizontal load, Scaled M14 Bolt Shear Limit = 3.713 g M10 Bolt Shear Limit = 3.157 g 10/13/201910/13/2019
Overdesigned Consideration To determine the feasibility of the post to absorb the load, the post was overdesigned Minimal amount of space available to absorb forces Post thickened to fill in whole area 10/13/201910/13/2019
Simulation Setup Four simulations performed Vertical Load, Horizontal and Vertical Load At 1G, 3G, and 5G loads 10/13/201910/13/2019

External Support Some bolts may be used external of the support post to absorb the force of the movement Assuming: 5G load Weight of 21,234 kg AISC calculations ASD factor of 2 12 bolts to absorb load 3 locations 4 bolts per location Minimum bolt diameter of 1.5 inches would be optimal 10/13/201910/13/2019
