Bracket supports can be adjoined to any cylindrical or conical shell
or steep conical head of the vessel casing. Bracket support placement
and dimensions determine the analysis of bearing loads on vessel components.
Analysis is carried out if 2, 3 or 4 supports are present. If there are
4 supporting lugs, assembly quality must be accurately defined 
. Name, code of standards and dimensions of bracket
supports are set in the same way as those for cylindrical shells. Bracket
supports can have no reinforcements or be supported by reinforcing pads.
Key “Standard dimensions” activates selection of typical support as per the conditional load, because, according to the applicable codes, not the support itself is calculated, but a vessel wall in the place of its connection.
