  3. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platforms: • Current projection; • 2 – 3.ft height walking platforms to go along the side of the experiment’s shield package to assist with the assembly of the upper and lower halves of the mu-metal shield. • 1 – 12.ft height main working platform that covers the entire lower shield package, cryostat, and magnet package – allows for work on the upper cryostat top plate as well as polarized Helium beam source. • 1 – 14.5 ft height platform to support a shield room for Squid and conventional electronics. • 1 – 14.5 ft height platform to support the 8X20X9 ft tall counting house • 1 – 6 to 12 ft adjustable height platform to assemble the upper cryostat, with separate access to top plate for technicians

  4. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platforms: • Projection continued; • All platforms will be designed using the criteria specified in the DOE order 10 CFR 851 – worker safety, as well OSHA regulation 1926.451 for construction scaffolding. This document sets appropriate safety factors for platforms based on assume loads of equipment and personnel. • The design for all platforms for personnel, will include safety railing as well as toe boards to prevent possible damage to equipment and personnel.

  5. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platforms: 36” W X 192” L X 39” H, all Aluminum construction, one on either side of the lower cryostat/shield package for assembly of mu-metal magnetic shielding.

  6. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platforms:

  7. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platforms: Main Platform; allows access to area above main cryostat – access to upper cryostat “top hat” and polarized Helium source. Primary location for cables, vacuum and cryogens into experimental volume. Nominal platform size – 144” W X 244” L X 142” H, excluding the step out where the Atomic Beam Source is located. Access is via a “ships ladder”, cost for ladder - $2,180.00. Costs for 48” X 144” X .25” Aluminum diamond plate $735.00

  8. 1.8.1 Mechanical Platform;

  9. Main platform FEA analysis, Eric Olivas, LANL; • Used as an elevated work platform. • Must support a minimum uniformly distributed live loads and minimum concentrated live load of: • 125 psi • 2000 lbs • As required by IBC 2006 Table 1607.1 • Used to support the nEDM cryostat during Mu-metal assembly • nEDM Cryostat assembly weight is ~ 20,000 lbs. • Driving design requirement is the ~ 20000 lbs cryostat assembly weight.

  10. Boundary Condition: Loading Scenario 1 • Boundary Conditions: • Fixed restraints on the bottom columns (see figure). • Load distributions (see figure). • Material was assumed to be linear elastic. • Aluminum 6061-T6 • Yield stress 40 ksi • Element Type; • Beam Elements • 2 node linear beam • Notes: • Beam element have 6 DOF at each node. • Structure will behave like a welded or bonded structure. • High stress point will develop due to “fixed” end conditions (see note 1). • Bolted joints were not analyzed during this study. • Bending stress dominates stress results. • Bending and combined stresses (bending + direct) are well below the yield stress of 6061-T6.

  17. Summary from analysis; • Analysis consisted of FEA modeling of the nEDM Outrigger Support assembly. The Al 6061-T6 material was assumed to be linear elastic and at room temperature. As it was shown in the analysis, the stress results were all well below specified materials yield strength. • Future work consisting of: • Higher order stress analysis. • Include bolted joints and frictionless contact. • Analyze the outrigger support per IBC 2006. • Buckling and Modal analysis.
