aluminum sheet 5454 API 650 self-anchored tank

After the API 650 self-anchored tank is manufactured, air tightness test and water filling test are carried out according to the design requirements, and the pipeline must be subjected to pressure test to fully meet the acceptance technical specifications. Improve the quality assurance system, adhere to the principle of who constructed is responsible for the quality of the project, conduct regular quality inspections, and immediately rectify any problems. Fill in the API 650 self-anchored tank installation technical records in time to ensure the synchronization, integrity and reliability of the technical data.In this project, the area of tank wall used is of the same construction, material, and geometry as that described in F.1.3.1 except that the thickness of the plate is 3/8 in. The wall is stressed in the same manner as is described in F.1.3.1. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 8000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.The outer FRP of API 650 oil tank will not produce electrolytic corrosion with groundwater and brine. The outer FRP will not corrode with gasoline, diesel oil and leaded gasoline API 650 self-anchored tank. The leakage detector can monitor the whole process 24 hours to eliminate the potential pollution. The leakage detection system is convenient for the inspection and maintenance of API 650 oil tank, and protects the original ecological environment of soil and groundwater.The company operates on the principles of fairness, objectivity, science, pragmatism and integrity.
