3.2.8 For hydrostatic test loading, the allowable stresses may be increased by
20 percent. A maximum of deflection of L/200 and a maximum bending
stress of 18 kips per square inch shall be allowed on primary
longitudinal beams designed for the appropriate considerations of

will most effectively and economically satisfy the greater of calculated

design requirements due to the loading and support conditions outlined
above in the Cases I and II, or as required for lifting.
3.2.10 The longitudinal primary members incorporated in the skid shall be
compact sections with top and bottom flanges adequately braced to
prevent distortion of the package during lifting, transportation, and
installation. The spacing of transverse members shall not exceed Lu for
the primary longitudinal members. Lu shall be as defined in the AISC
specification.
3.2.11 Where tubular ends are provided, a primary longitudinal member shall
terminate at the center line of the skid tubulars. Transverse end beams
shall be located 1.5 feet from tubular center lines. The skid tubulars
shall extend transversely 4 to 6 inches beyond the primary longitudinal
members and shall be capped with end plates.
3.2.12 The primary transverse beams, including the end beams, shall be
compact sections. They shall extend completely across the skid. If the
skid has interior primary longitudinal beams, the transverse beams shall
be welded to them in a manner sufficient to develop the full bending
strengths of the transverse members across the joints.
3.2.13 Diagonal bracing shall be placed throughout the length of the skid and
arranged in such a manner as to provide 'truss' action in resisting lateral
forces. The bracing system shall be designed to sustain a force equal to
a minimum of 20 percent of the total lifted load applied to any corner of
the skid from any lateral direction. The bottom surface of these
members shall not project below the bottom flanges of the primary
transverse beams. Piping and equipment mounted on the skid shall not
be considered effective as bracing.
3.2.14 If holes drilled in a beam flange or holes cut in the web of member result
in exceeding the allowable stresses specified by AISC, the member shall
be reinforced with welded plate having a thickness sufficient to provide
the additional required area. In no case shall plate less than 1/4 inch
thick be used.
3.2.15 Welded stiffeners with a thickness of 3/8 inch, or greater as required,
shall be installed at points of higher concentrated loads.

equipment. Grating shall not be used as a mounting surface for

equipment or supports.
3.2.18 Loadings caused by piping reactions that are to be transmitted by the
skid to the foundation shall be considered in skid design.
3.2.19 The skid for a reciprocating or rotating engine shall be designed for
lateral stability. Lateral deflection of skid beam relative to foundation
due to unbalanced forces shall be less than 0.002 inches.
3.2.20 There shall be operating accessibility to all instruments, controls, and
valves, and accessibility shall meet OSHA safety requirements.
3.2.21 Platforms shall be equipped with:
• Handrails
• Mid rails
• Kick plates
Platform and stair treads shall be made from bar grating. Floor grating
shall be removable if specified.
3.2.22 The supports and installation shall allow piping to be removed without
cutting of main structural members.
3.2.23 The skid shall be designed to resist transportation forces resulting from
shipping, trucking, and/or transfers. In lieu of a detailed analysis for
such loading conditions, this criteria may be satisfied by applying a load
of 0.6 times the shipping weight of the equipment in the direction which
will cause the most severe condition for design. The point of application
of the load shall be the center of gravity of the equipment. All skid-
mounted equipment shall be considered including, vessels, pumps,
control panels, piping, etc. This criteria shall be used in the design of
equipment tie downs and skid-supporting members, as well as the
overall skid. Stress levels for members and connections subject to the
above forces will be limited to the 18 KIP per square inch allowable for
static load without the one-third increase.
3.3 Open Drain Collection Points
Points
3.3.1 A trough with cover shall be installed beneath all drain outlets (including
level bridle site glasses, sampling points, level gauges, level instrument,
etc.). The trough shall be designed to catch potential spillage and
effectively transport liquids to a common drain system.
3.3.2 Troughs or pipe shall have a minimum slope of 1/8 inch per foot.

3.3.4 Discharge points must be provided with accessible stainless steel
screens for preventing large, solid debris from entering the drain system.
3.3.5 Total clearance requirements for the troughs must be considered in
selecting structural members. Depths of main and intercoastal beams
must be such that, as a minimum, the above specified slopes are
achieved. Where section sizes permit, the maximum slope possible
shall be used.
3.4 Lifting of Skids
3.4.1 The skid shall be designed and constructed so that the complete
package, including all specified equipment piping, mounted and in
place, can be lifted with a spreader bar (or spreader frame if required for
sling clearance) to position the skid on a foundation. The VENDOR shall
design and furnish all the necessary gear to lift the completely
assembled package. All lifting gear, including slings, shackles and
spreaders, shall be supplied by VENDOR.
3.4.2 Skids with vessels shall not be lifted by the vessel lugs.
3.4.3 Skidded packages shall be designed and build for a single point lift with
slings to four padeyes.
3.4.4 The structure and lift system shall be designed in accordance with the
following criteria.
1. Each sling and shackle shall be selected to have a safe working load
no less than its share of the structure static weight, including the effects
of sling angle with the horizontal plane. Safe working load is defined as
the manufacturer's minimum ultimate load divided by four. Design sling
lengths shall be selected from common sizes available having not less
than a 60° angle with the horizontal when connected to the padeye. The
design sling lengths and shackle sizes shall be specified on the padeye
drawing. Design sling lengths and shackle sizes shall be reviewed by
CUSTOMER prior to finalizing the design.
2. Each lift point (padeye) and connection of the padeye to the structure
shall be designed to carry no less than its share of the structure static
dead weight, plus a 100 percent load factor. The effect of design sling
angle with the horizontal shall be included in the design of the padeye
and the connection of the padeye with the structure. The padeye and
connection for the padeye to the structure shall also be designed for a
simultaneous out-of-plane load equal to 5 percent of the axial load on

Padeyes shall be oriented to prevent weak axis loading and shall be
positioned to allow adequate clearance for shackle installation. When
cutting padeyes from rolled plate, the padeyes shall be oriented in such
a manner that the direction of a maximum sling force is parallel to the
rolling direction of the plate.

specifications. ASTM-A36 shall normally be specified. Use of high
strength steels is subject to CUSTOMER approval.
