120ft diameter API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks

Investigation of Subgrade
On actual steel storage tank sites to be used, test borings or test pits, or both, may be made at the direction of a competent engineer who will specify the number and location. They need not be equally spaced but should be laid out to uncover possible weak spots.
In general, test loadings of subgrade at the bottom of test pits need be resorted to only when such heavy loading as may be imposed by footings for major column supports for spheres or similarly elevated API 620 low-pressure tanks is specified. Results may be deceptive if average load-bearing capacity over a considerable area is wanted. All field data shall be recorded with maps, and copies shall be supplied to all engineers concerned with design, erection, and later operation.API 650 is widely used for tanks that are designed to internal pressures of 2.5 PSI or less and store products such as crude oil, gasoline, chemicals and API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks produced water. Advance Tank has extensive experience with API 650 tanks ranging in diameter from 8' - 300' for refineries, terminals, pipeline facilities and other clients.We supply 3500 tons SA387GR5CL1 steel plates to Pakistan. The main businesses of the Pakistan customer are manufacturing columns & towers, heat exchanger, waste heat recovery boiler, pressure vessel & reactors, tanks, etc. We arranged SGS test for the SA387GR5CL1 steel plates. The test contents include chemical composition analysis, tensile test, impact test, etc. The test results are satisfied. The Pakistan customer gave good feedback after receiving the SA387GR5CL1 steel plates.Welding inspection of bottom plate of API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks, vertical oil tank: During the fabrication and installation of API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks, the bottom edge plate is welded first. According to the requirements of the technical standard, penetrant inspection is required for the weld of edge plate at the bottom of API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks, that is, penetrant testing is required for each weld bead priming, filling and capping. In the process of testing, if any defect is found, it shall be repaired immediately. After the repair, the surface coloring penetrant test shall be conducted again until the test result is qualified.As one of the large professional metallurgical manufacturers in China, the strength of the brand, quality assurance, professional after-sales. Every day we are making unremitting efforts to challenge higher quality API 650 self-anchored flat-bottom steel tanks products and more satisfactory services. Customer demand is our pursuit, and win customer satisfaction with quality. BBN after-sales team is responsible to solve the problem of technical support and quality, service complaints.
