Would it be possible to add the verification of stresses in the case of tilting a vessel using 4 trunnions ? Sometimes, when manufacturing large and long equipments, the use of a tailing lug leads to high stresses and unreal lug dimensions.
We are manufacturing vessels with OD6000 mm and 5800 mm and length of 17 meters and 19 meters.
They are set horizontally during fabrication but we need to lift them up outside of our workshop in order to validate our design.
The vessels will also be placed vertically on client site.
Usual lifting lugs are not the adequate solution.
So we need trunnions to perform all those handlings.
Regards,
Adrien.

Please confirm this is for Vertical vessel and make alteration to the description so others will know.
