ABSTRACT: The paper presents general design criteria for designing pressure vessels to withstand external pressure. Combinations of dome ends, cones and cylinders are considered. The criteria reduce to those given in BS 5500 for simple geometries. General criteria are given for the design of ring stiffening including the choice of stiffener proportions. The use of sophisticated analytical techniques to assist in meeting those criteria is demonstrated by means of numerical examples.
