5. Status Baseline: –Solid corner pieces at bottom: splice connection at 3.4 m from bottom (shaft available envelope 3.7 m) –Splice must be able to take moment of 1-2 MN m and Shear of 3 MN (this to cope with possible uncertainties in transition point) –Bolted connection on top (better stability, splice calculated) Bolted connections all calculated (Joao will summarise results) Short side walls: analyses yet to be done –longitudinal force retaining system, bracings –Pinned or M connection at top  see next slides for pinned connection –M connection at bottom  verify transverse connection to floor I beams Behaviour of bottom elements (floor): option to be discussed for the review (Piet) Work ahead: –Final proposal short side walls design –Static and Buckling final results and bracings: add bracing, ignore grid –Full run of SCIAeng EC3 verification –Verification of ASME requirements Pm+Pb < 1.5 S for div 1 and div 2 –Verification of ASME requirements for welds –Verification of ASME requirements for bolts –Seismic calculations (no time for the review) –Material x the review Page 5

6. A note on the moment transition The transition point of M along the vertical beam is highly affected by: –The rotational stiffness of the bottom joint –The position of the bottom support (or contact point) –(The behaviour of the floor beam) The top pressure 20, 120, 350 mbar does not influence the transition point The splice joint (seen these effects) must be capable of taking Moments and Shear with some good safety factors Transition at 1.9 (+0.55) for RotStiff =1250 MN m/rad and at 2.66 (+0.55) for perfect joint stiffness Page 6
