Features and Benefits:
- Get real time strain readings that can be converted into real time Von Mises stresses
- Compare real life stress readings with theoretical Finite Element Analysis (FEA) stress readings
- Get piece of mind knowing that your equipment meets or exceeds its intended working load limits
- Get real time loading on equipment by use of strain gauge load cells
- Applicable to compressive, tensile, and shear loading scenarios
- Required as per API 8C section 5.3.2 for design verification
- Stress verification for localized theoretical hotspots
- Ensure equipment safety in hazardous working environment
