0.911kN/m² | 0.911kN/m² (1) | 0,00% |
Load in zone D | 3.28kN/m (2) | 3.28kN/m | 0,00% |
Load in zone G | 9.18kN/m | 9.18kN/m | 0,00% |
Load in zone H, J, I | 5.25kN/m | 5.25kN/m | 0,00% |
Load in zone E | 3.28kN/m | 3.28kN/m | 0,00% |
1. The peak pressure cannot be requested as a result in Diamonds. But it is possible to request it as an intermediar results using this method.
2. The independent reference states that the load in zone D should be 4.59kN/m instead of 3.28kN/m. But a handcalculation shows that 3.28kN/m is the correct value. The value 4.59kN/m is obtained when we neglec the internal pressure coefficient
