Load Calculation for Hollow Pipe (OD-320mm,ID-310mm,Height-600mm,MS)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on determining the load capacity of a hollow mild steel pipe with specific dimensions: an outer diameter of 320 mm, an inner diameter of 310 mm, and a height of 600 mm. Participants seek clarification on the type of load and its application to the pipe, indicating that additional context is necessary for accurate calculations. Questions about the user's background in mechanical engineering and project construction suggest that expertise level may influence the assistance provided. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding the load type to provide a precise answer. Overall, the thread highlights the need for more detailed information to assess the pipe's load-bearing capabilities effectively.

Can you please help me out to find out the load that a Hollow pipe can withstand.
OD-320mm
ID-310 mm
Height-600 mm
Material -Mild Steel
How much load can it withstand? Your help will be appreciated.

Your question is somewhat vague.

What kind of load? How is it applied to the pipe?

Welcome to the PF.

What is the application? What is your level of education and experience in mechanical engineering type subjects and project construction?
 
Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'
Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
