1 Materials for padeye main plates and attachments shall have min. 60ksi yield strength.
.
2 Lifting is done using Crosby Shackles. G 209 S209-2160 with working load limit 13.5 MT

3 Dia of sling used = 40mm

4 Permissible stresses in fillet weld has been considered as the min. of 0.3 Fu and 0.4 Fy
where Fu= 517 Mpa (Min. Tensile Strength, API RP-2A WSD) and Fy = 412Mpa (60 ksi),
respectively

Design loads :

Maximum load in sling ( from SACS Lifting Analysis, Without

= 140.0 kN 14 MT
C.O.G Shifts, DAF,SKL & consequence factor for padeye)

Skew Factor = 1.1

Dynamic Amplification Factor DAF = 1.15

C.O.G Factor = 1.1 (Max. sling load has been considered,

considering cog shift)
Tilt Factor = 1.03
Yaw Factor = 1
Static load for sling & shackle selection = 200.6543 kN 20.07 T
Factor of Saftey for Minimum Breaking Strength = 3 (0027/NDI Rev 3)

Min.Breaking Strength for shackle selection = 60.2 T

Consequence factor for padeyes (Strength check) = 1.35 (0027/NDI Rev 3)

Hence, design load for padeye, F = = 27.09 T (inclusive of DAF and CF)

= 270883.31 N
Using Crosby Alloy Bolt-Type Shackles G 2160 (Specification Attached)

PADEYE GEOMETRY
Diameter of Eye Dh
1.05Dp = 40 mm
Dp+5mm = 43 mm
Therefore Diameter of eye(min. of above two) = 40 mm
Radius of Eye Rh = 20.0 mm

Main Plate + Cheek Plate + Centraliser Plate Thickness (Tt)

Tt Should be Approximately equal to 0.9 Lp
0.9 Lp = 51.21 mm
So Provide 45 mm Thickness
Lp-Tt = 11.9 Less than 25mm. So O.K
Main Plate Thickness(Tmp)
Main Plate Thickness= 0.25 to 0.4Dp
Say 0.25 Dp 9.525 mm
Say 12 mm

Cheek Plate Thickness(Tcp)

Cheek Plate Thickness= 0.15 to 0.3Dp
Say 0.25 Dp 9.525 mm
Say 10 mm

Centraliser Plate Thickness(Tcenp)

Total Thickness to be provided= 45 mm
So Centrasiler Plate Thickness = 6.5 mm
Say 5 mm

Total Thickness Provided=Tmp+2xTcp+2xTcenp = 42 mm

Main Plate Radius Rmp
Radius of Main plate Rmp= 1.5 to 1.75 Dp
Say 1.65 Dp 62.865 mm
Say 65 mm
Cheek Plate Radius Rcp

Rcp= Rmp - Tcp = 55 mm

Say 53 mm

Check 1 :-
Rmp - Cheek plate Weldment(lcp)-5mm= = 54
Cheek plate Weldment(lcp)= = 6 (Assumed)
Can Provide 53 mm radius
Check 2 :-
0.5 Tcp = = 5
0.75 Tcp = = 7.5
Weld Size mentioned above is o.k here

Centraliser Plate Radius (Rcentp)

Radius of Centraliser plate Rcentp= = 150 mm
Greater than eye radius so O.K

Welds :
A. Weld check between inner cheek plate and main plate : (Considering the effect of cheek plate only)

Force for one cheek plate, F'

= Fx Tcp / (Tmp+2Tcp) = 84651.034375
Permissible Stress In Weld
Material Grade = 60 ksi (API SPEC 2W GRADE 60)
= 412 MPa
Minimum Tensile Strength Fu = 517 MPa (Ref: API RP 2A-WSD)
Strength of weld shall be min. of
1)0.3 x Fu = 155.1 MPa
2)0.4 x Fy = 164.8 MPa
Allowable stress = = 155.1 MPa
Hence, weld area required, = = F'/ allowable stress

= (Since half the weld length

Effective weld length, l' = (2Rcp) / 2 is effective)
