1100 aluminum rod API 650 SUG III tanks

There is no dome roof in the top of the vertical external floating roof oil storage tank, only the disc floating roof which can float up and down. The wall plates are connected by butt welding, and the construction is usually carried out by the forward installation method, and the storage capacity is usually more than 10000 cubic meters. Vertical internal floating roof API 650 SUG III tanks has both dome roof and internal floating roof. The internal floating roof floats on the liquid surface inside the dome roof oil tank and can float up and down. The storage capacity is usually between 1000 and 10000 cubic meters.

The thickness of the API 650 SUG III tanks wall plate, t, required by 5.10.3 for the latitudinal unit forces, T2, acting at this level is 0.57 in. The nozzle neck is seamless steel pipe and conforms to ASTM A53, Grade A; the materials in the tank wall and reinforcing pad conform to ASTM A442 Grade 55. The main joints in the tank walls are fully radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The adequacy of the reinforcement and attachment welds shown in Figure F-7 shall be determined.
To determine the length of the nozzle neck within the limits of reinforcement, the smaller of the following calculated values shall be used:(2.5)(0.625) = 1.56 in.
(2.5)(0.375) + 0.75 = 1.69 in.

The welded API 650 tank in various sizes and capacities for internal pressures approximating atmospheric pressure (internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the roof plates), but a higher internal pressure API 650 SUG III tanks is permitted when additional requirements are met.
