API 650 open top welded storage tanks, floating roof tank is composed of vertical cylindrical tank wall and floating roof, which is floating on the surface of liquid storage. The volume of floating roof storage tank is generally large, and its bottom plate is arched edge plate. The difference between floating roof tank and other types of storage tank is that there is a floating top cover floating on the surface of liquid storage, and the top cover floats up and down with the rise and fall of liquid storage.

Preheating should be performed by heating and maintaining this heat in appreciable lengths of the joint to be welded, preferably using a strip burner with a mild flame rather than a harsh flame such as that from a cutting torch. Electrical strip heaters are available and have been found to be satisfactory. The preheat of 300°F should be checked with a temperature-sensitive crayon, or similarly accurate means, so that the steel 4 in. (or four times the API 650 open top welded storage tanks plate thickness, whichever is greater) on each side of the joint will be maintained at the minimum preheat temperature. Ring burners or heaters are recommended for nozzle and manway welds. At no time during the welding should the base metal fall below a temperature of 300°F.
