NOTES
1) Member sizes provided are to be used as a guideline only. ach
individual design case is to be carefully reviewed to confirm
member sizing. For large skids (widths > 16'0" and lengths =
40'0") or heavily loaded skids (supporting large pumps,
compressors), skid design and member sizing should be reviewed-by
a professional structural engineer.
2) Skids are to be designed for worst case loading conditions. For
instance:
a) while loading and handling with crane(s)
b) while on truck deck during transportation (cantilever action
for sections overhanging trailer deck)
* Remember: When hauling wide skids (> 18'0" wide) use 10'0"
to 12'0* wide trailers.
3) For widths and lengths not given on the charts, go to next larger
dimension to determine main member size.
Example: Skid Size 15'0" wide x 26'0* long, use W14x30 main
members.
4) Lifting Lugs:
a) Location and quantity of lifting lugs can reduce member size
requirements.
b) For skid lengths > 40'0' use eight (8) point lift.
c) Make sure lugs are properly located to avoid interference
with protruding nozzles and vessel components. Keep in mind
simplest rigging scenario for loading and handling.
