Trunnion Calculation Sheet

This document contains a trunnion calculation sheet for a pipe support. It provides pipe dimensions and material properties, loading data, and steps to calculate bending stresses in the circumferential and longitudinal directions. The results of the calculations show that the combined stresses exceed the allowable stress, indicating the trunnion design is inadequate.
