Re: Refinary Project (Pipe Bridge Photos added)
Thanks guys, I will try my best to keep you abreast of the progress.
Graham it's a fine art, involving a two stage process, and the results are perfect tar like substance.
Noel I am getting to caught up in the design, making sure I am using the correct steels etc, so I get the right stresses and moment connects, I need to chill an just build, if you saw the amount of time I build and then deconstruct cuz it is 1mm out of plumb, it's worse than OCD.
Well next stage is the connection pads for the bridge to the process building and maybe then some pipe work.
Martyn, the glue i use is from EMA a solvent its is amazing stuff and fast, i would higly recomment it but if you are going to use it to make it efficent i would suggest you get an applicator also,.

Lol, I hope you didn't forget your 'factor of safety' for live loads and dead loads when you were carrying out your structural calculations!!

Wow , brought back some memories actually operated an Ethylene petrochemical plant for BP in a former life and built and commissioned some with Costain Oil and Gas. Simon Carves would be very proud! Great detail !
