API 650 flat-bottom tanks leg lengths
As an experienced world class steel materials supplier and exporter, logistics and fast delivery is a crucial step to us. Our logistics department and shipping department take the responsiblity to allocate and transport steel materials from our mill and warehouse to customer port or designated destination. The cooperation of the two departemts are excellent and that powerfully support our fast delivery, and strive for shorter time for customers to receive steel materials.
In order to prevent the deformation of the bottom of metal vertical API 650 flat-bottom tanks during welding, comprehensive control measures such as strict control of assembly geometry size, reasonable welding procedure, process control of welding deformation and rigid fixation are adopted during assembly welding. The specific methods are as follows:1. Strictly control welding groove forming of API 650 flat-bottom tanks.2. Strictly control the size of tank welding seam assembly.3. Define the welding sequence of tank bottom plate.4. Reasonable distribution of welders.
The {keyword shell that contains the liquid shall have butt-welded annular bottom plates with a radial width that provides at least 24 in. between the inside of the shell and any lap-welded joint in the remainder of the bottom and at least a 2-in. projection outside the shell. The stated values apply to full-sized specimens. For sub-size specimen acceptance criteria, see ASTM A20. An impact test temperature lower than the design metal temperature may be used by the API 620 large welded, low pressure storage tanks Manufacturer.
