Gusset Information

Thickness: The thickness of each gusset.

Depth: Radial dimension for the gusset plate. This is the greatest radial measurement for the "Base Ring with gussets only" configuration.

Height: Vertical dimension for the gusset plate. This is the greatest vertical measurement for the "Base Ring with gussets only" configuration.

Number of gussets: Enter the number of gussets. This must be at least the number of bolts. Typically this will be equal to either the number of bolts or two times the number of bolts.

Angle: This value is only available for the "Base Ring with gussets only" configuration. See the figure on the General Information tab for more information.

Angle Starting Height: This value is only available for the "Base Ring with gussets only" configuration. See the figure on the General Information tab for more information.

Maximum distance between gussets: Enter the maximum distance from one gusset to the next. If the number of gussets equals the number of bolts, this value must equal the value in the "Maximum distance between gussets straddling bolts" field.

Maximum distance between gussets straddling bolts: Enter the maximum distance from one gusset to the next with a bolt in between. If number of gussets equals the number of bolts, this value must equal the value in the “Maximum distance between gussets” field.

Compression Plate Information

Top Ring O.D.: The outside diameter of the top ring. This is only available in designs with a complete top ring.

Top Plate Depth: The depth of the top plate. This is only available in designs with a compression plate.

Top Plate Width: The width of the top plate. This is only available in designs with a compression plate. See the figure on the General Information tab for more information.

Top Ring/Plate Thickness: The thickness of the top plate. This is only available in designs with a complete top ring or a compression plate. See the figure on the General Information tab for more information.
