Assuming ram shoe is wider than the joint contact areaCWc, the loss of contact is found by;
Loss = Max( cwc/2 +eram-Wshoe/2, 0) = 28.35 mm
Width of ram to segment contact, assuming the ram rigid, and so ca be modled as UDL across the full width.
Cwshoe = CWc-loss , = 115.85 mm
At eachend of the segment, the ram shoe may overhang the joint regate length if the shoes are distributed evenly around the
ring. This reduces the contact length and load spread length as follows;
Distance from centre of outer shoe to

radial edge of segment dedge = Lcirc/2 - Lcirc*ns/(nshoe-1) = 0.596 m
New Contact length of outer shoe, clshoe = Min ( lshoe/2+dedge-jrl, lshoe) = 888 mm
