350 V Pressure Vessel Strength Calculation

This document provides design parameters and calculations for the support leg design of a vertical vessel. It includes: 1) Design parameters such as internal and external pressures, leg material properties, and vessel dimensions. 2) Calculations of leg section properties, bending and compressive stresses, base plate thickness, and anchor bolt size. 3) Checks of stresses in the leg, shell, base plate, anchor bolts, and connecting welds to ensure they meet allowable values. The results indicate the design meets all allowable stress requirements.
