Dear Engineers,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm reaching out to seek guidance on a new project that I am undertaking: the construction of an Internal Floating Roof (IFR) tank with a dome roof. As I am relatively new to this position, this project presents a significant learning opportunity for me.

Recognizing the complexity and importance of this endeavor, I am eager to gather as much knowledge and insight as possible to ensure its successful execution. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate any resources, documents, or site links that you could share to aid in my understanding of the intricacies involved in the construction and design of such a structure.

Your expertise and assistance in this matter would be invaluable to me as I navigate through this project. Thank you in advance for any support you can provide.

Best regards,

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Carburetor cfm rating -- adding more air to intake manifold'

Carburetor CFM A Holley Carb rated at 500 cfm 2 barrel carb has venturi diameter of 1.3/8". There are 2 barrel carbs with 600 cfm and have 1.45 diameter venturi. Looking at the area the 1.378 bore has 5.9 sq. Inch area. The 1.45 dia. has 6.6 sq. inch. 5.9 - 6.6 = 0.70 sq. inch difference. Keeping the 500 cfm carb in place, if I can introduce 0.7 sq inch more area in the intake manifold, will I have the same potential horsepower as a 600 cfm carb provide? Assume I can change jetting to...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

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
