Abstract

The disadvantages of the traditional steel clamp include installation difficulty, a short service life. Therefore, a non-metallic clamp was designed to relieve these issues. MFE711 bisphenol-A epoxy vinyl resin was identified as the matrix materials needed to meet the requirements of corrosion resistance, impact resistance and other performances. After analyzing the wave load on the clamp, the resultant force on the cable protection pipe is 78784N, and its maximum equivalent stress is 73.78 MPa. This is less than the value of 155 MPa of yield strength on the clamp; therefore it meets the predetermined design requirements. Presently, there are 11 Clamp products that have been installed on the standing pipe under the offshore platform and will apply widely to engineering.
