Presentation Transcript

  1. Christina Toroc, Parker Harding, Caitlin McHugh, Hunter Hughes Cable Storage Racks for Norfolk Naval Shipyard

  2. Design Concepts • Static Rack - No moving parts - 4-Cell design -  Sturdy, simple construction -  Bolted connections for easy disassembly -  Some welding required

  3. Design Concepts • Dynamic Rack - Moving Parts - More involved construction - Bolted and welded connections - Damper mechanism

  4. Design Direction • Static Design -  Cheaper to construct - Negligible maintenance - Easy to repair - Safer - Approximately the same spool capacity as the Dynamic Rack

  5. Design Conditions • Increase Accessibility • Increase Capacity • Reduce exposure to the elements

  6. Connections • Both welded and bolted connections • End plate to distribute loads applied to HSS Column • I-beams are bolted for easy assembly and disassembly

  7. PATRAN Analysis • Maximum displacement: 0.0575”

  8. PATRAN Analysis • Bending Stress: 6710 psi

  9. PATRAN Analysis • Axial Stress: 1270 psi

  10. SolidWorks Model

  11. Remaining Goals • Consult Shipyard • Finish design • Cost and Labor Analysis • CAD blueprints

  12. Gantt Chart

  13. Questions?
