Seismic and Wind Load Analysis for Equipment and Structures
Tanks, vessels, columns, stacks and structures must be designed for local wind and earthquake loads. SLETEC calculates these loads and checks anchorage, overturning and stresses.
We work to ASCE 7, the Saudi Building Code SBC 301, API 650 Annex E, ASME STS-1 and project specifications, including vortex shedding checks for tall stacks and response spectrum FEA.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is seismic design needed in the GCC?
Yes, in many locations. SBC 301 and project specifications define the seismic zone and design requirements.
Do you check anchor bolts?
Yes. Anchor bolt, base plate and overturning checks are included.
Can you check tall stacks for wind vibration?
Yes. We check vortex shedding and ovalling for stacks and columns.
