Tutorial of WRC 107 For Trunnion

The document outlines the 12 step procedure for performing WRC-107 calculations to analyze the strength of a trunnion used for lifting a vessel vertically or horizontally. The key steps include: 1) importing vessel data from software, 2) selecting the analysis type in COADE CALC, 3) inputting load and trunnion geometry data, 4) running the analysis, 5) checking results and iterating trunnion dimensions if failure is reported. The goal is to determine if the trunnion design passes or fails the strength requirements.
