API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks seismic use group

Allowable Design Stresses
The maximum allowable design stresses for the API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks materials outlined in Q.2.1 shall be in accordance with Table Q-3.The values for the allowable design tensile stress given in Table Q-3 for materials other than bolting steel are the lesser of (a) 331/3% of the specified minimum ultimate tensile strength for the material or (b) 662/3% of the specified minimum yield strength, but they are 75% of the specified minimum yield strength for the stainless steel, nickel alloy, and aluminum materials. Allowable test stresses are based on the limitation of API 620 oil tank storage standard Q.8.1.3.

API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.

On September 14th 2019, a Australia customer purchased 500 tonsDIN17155 15Mo3 boiler steel plates, which will be used for vessel modification of wax backflow protection project and LPU project. Many old customers keep asking about Din17155 steel grade-15Mo3. Usually our company would suggest customers to choose EN10028 steel specification, but if customer insiste on the old steel grade, we could arrange it either. With years of experience in produceing DIN 17155 15Mo3 boiler steel plates, the company supplies high quality steel API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks product with low cost and better service.

The main contents of safety inspection for atmospheric storage tank, API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks are to see whether the tank foundation is sunk, whether the tank is corroded, whether there are cracks in the tank body and bottom, whether there is concave convex phenomenon on the top and wall of the tank, whether the accessories of the storage tank are in good condition, etc. After the API 650 self anchored flatbottom tanks safety inspection and detection, the defects found in the tank should be handled according to the inspection rules in time to ensure the normal and safe use of the storage tank in the later stage.
