API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks adjustable legs
The horizontal projection of the roof plate within the compression-ring region is 4.9 x 0.866 = 4.25 in., which fulfills the requirement of API 620 tank standard 5.12.5.1. The required area and horizontal projection can be provided by any of the standard angles listed in Table F-3.Any of these angles may be used in accordance with the details of Figure 5-6, detail a or b, but if details c, h, or i in Figure 5-6 were intended, the net area of the angle must be calculated by deducting the area expected to be lost by corrosion from that part of the angle surface that is exposed to the interior of the tank.
API 650 vertical tanks meet American Petroleum Industries (API) standards in design, material, fabrication, and testing of aboveground welded steel API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanksstorage tanks for use in industrial applications.
Tunisia cutomer purchased around 1500 tons 304L,310S stainless steel plate from us and make tanks in August, 2017. The company was skilled in the design and manufacture of stainless steel tanks, API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks processing systems and equipment for the food, dairy, beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and pure water industries. They also sent the inspection team come our company and visited our production line. After using our stainless steel plate, the customer was very satisfied with our products.
}The specifications used in the design of large oil tanks, API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks mainly include American Petroleum Institute Standard API 650, Japanese Industrial Standard JIS B8501, British Industrial Standard BS2654 and Chinese National Standard GB50341 from a global perspective. The formulas used in each specification are based on the hoop stress in the membrane theory. Each specification is based on the performance characteristics of materials and the construction technology level of their respective countries to determine the allowable stresses and weld coefficients. Therefore, the calculation results of tank wall thickness of API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks with the same volume are sometimes quite different according to different specifications.
Relying on the background of high-quality steel resources and its own strong steel machining capabilities, BBN comany can not only supply various steel material products, such as steel coils, steel plates, API 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks sheet, steel pipes, and shaped steels, but also provide a variety of steel deep processing services like cutting, welding and grinding. Through continuous technological innovation and after-sales service optimization, the company has its own world on the domestic and international steel industry stage!
