API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks knuckles

API 650 is an American standard for welding flat bottom vertical storage tanks. This API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks standard specifies requirements for the design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation of storage tanks. API 650 is widely used in storage tanks designed to withstand low internal pressures and used to store typical products such as API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks crude oil, gasoline, chemicals and water. BBN has extensive experience in API 650 tanks, from +/- 500 cubic meters of tanks produced in the factory to +/- 15000 cubic meters of tanks produced on site.

API 620 Tank Design
The designer of these large tanks API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks shall supply the data on superimposed loadings to be assumed for the foundation design or, if there are no foundations, for direct loading on the subgrade. A slab or mat may be provided to support the superstructure and shall be considered to distribute the load more evenly over a lower natural subgrade compared with merely stripping, leveling, and rolling the existing grade.
For simple spheroids or tanks of similar design, in which the distribution of the imposed weights shifts because the liquid level in combination with the vapor pressure may change the shape of the tank, the designer shall consider the possibility of such a change.

Treatment of API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks welding defects:
1. Lack of fusion: once found, it should be shoveled and grinded off before re welding.
2. Incomplete penetration: over standard defects shall be removed and re welded. When welding on both sides, the shallow side of the groove can be grinded and shoveled to expose the welding root on one side, and then the welding is repaired.
3. Slag inclusion: over standard defects shall be removed and re welded.
4. Crater: weld to full after grinding.
5. Air hole: if the internal air hole exceeds the standard, it shall be welded again after being removed by grinding shovel, and the surface air hole shall be removed by grinding wheel and then repaired.

Company through its own API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks website, multimedia, radio, newspapers, the group, the handbook of the corporate culture carrier, approved and publicity column, in-depth to carry out enterprise culture construction, also through photography, painting, calligraphy, cartoon, speech, and the songs of the enterprise design, various cultural and sports activities to carry out enterprise culture construction.

The company attaches great importance to logistics services, sets up our own transport truck fleet, improves customer response capacity through the improvement of logistics capacity, and further reduces costs. Customers ordering API 650 mechanically-anchored steel tanks steel from our company can not only enjoy the service of fast delivery, but also enjoy lower transportation costs.
