071: Steel Plant Water Supply

Pipe stress analysis of various sections of a steel plant water supply, subjected to loads including weight, pressure, thermal expansion and water hammer. Based on the results, diameters, wall thicknesses and supports were modified. Due to the complexity of the loads, it took up to 4 iterations to achieve a satisfactory design.
