5052 aluminum bar API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks
No matter what type of storage tank needs to be built, the natural conditions of the geographical area where the tank is located should be fully considered in the design. Because natural conditions will affect the service life, storage safety and construction cost of storage tanks such as API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks. Generally, the natural conditions that need to be considered before API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks design and construction are: regional temperature, wind load, snow load, ground endurance, external environment corrosion, etc.
API 650 stipulates that an open tank should be provided with a wind-resistant ring to ensure that the API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks tank body maintains its roundness when subjected to wind. There are no hard and fast rules for vault API 650 storage tanks. It can be determined by comparing the equivalent wall height with the maximum height of the unreinforced tank wall.
In particular, the EU imports a large amount of iron ore from central and South America and Oceania, which are mainly transported by sea. The perfect port infrastructure makes the port operation cost of EU iron ore raw materials import relatively low. However, the API Std 650 vertical welded storage tanks steel transportation between EU Member States is mainly railway transportation, and the EU member states have established a very developed railway network and railway information infrastructure.
