Should Launch Clamps be stronger?

[Mmmmyum]

So for the last few days I've been trying to get a Duna rocket that has a TWR of 2.2 (Kerbin Gravity) in every stage. I didn't get my goal, with every stage only having a TWR of 1.6. The only problem is that the launch clamps just fall off when I try launching it. . The rocket weighs 726.39t, has 12k Delta-v, and has 24 launch clamps to try and keep it on, which don't work. Surely they should be stronger, as they are attached to the floor?

Try adding a second ring of clamps, above first one. This way weight will be spread more evenly.

It could be a mod messing with them too..

Put the launch clamps above your center of mass

Launch clamps are pretty strong it really depends are were you place them

As for this particular issue, I've never had any problems with launch clamps, as already noted by several placement is important. Looking at yours OP, lower your rocket so it's just above the pad and raise the launch clamps. Like any other part the launch clamp attachments experience physics and will break off if poorly placed.

Lower the rocket until the engines almost touch the ground. That will help a lot with stability when the physic engine kicks in.

Maybe this will help.

If they just give up, you need moar clamps.
