Quoting: DeadManWalkin' its like a post asking how to code fortran. too much for a bb too read blueprints you need no math too make blueprints you must know loads, material, fasteners, spans, and much more. tons and tons of product approval docs |

The calculations that may be included in the set? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 73159314 United States 03/25/2017 11:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes, and some blueprints use an Architectural scale (ex: 1/4" on the drawing = 1 ft on the ground) and some use an Engineering scale (ex: 1:50 means 1 cm on the drawing = 50 cm on the ground) [link to www.engineeringtoolbox.com] |

I've never been involved with Oil platformplans, but I know for buildings and developments, there is a whole team of Architects, civil engineers, mechanical engineers, structural engineers and environmentalists.. I guess you'd probably add in petroleum engineering into the mix on a oil platform. Add all that expertise up and that's a whole lotta schooling and math.. |

Just having trouble finding out what sort of maths are used to read offshore oil rig blueprints. I think algebra & def geometry are used, but wasn't sure if it goes any deeper than that. -.. . .- -.. / -- .- -. / .-- .- .-.. -.- .. -. --. Omnes vulnerant, ultima necat |

I'm always amazed at the engineering that goes into platforms. Not even just the physical plant, but the oil exploration, the giant drilling ships searching for pockets of black gold, and even moving the plant from port to sea is amazing. Thoughts on pollution aside, the fact that people can do this stuff is incredible. |

I was watching a show about saturation divers/welders the other day. This is an intense job. They stay pressurized, at depth, for 28 days. Breathing a mix of O and He the entire time. Then, after their 28 day hitch, they decompress for 6 days.. They make anywhere from 45,000 to 90,000 a month, depending on the depth. Crazy.. |
