API 650 self-anchored tanks examination requirements
API 650 stipulates that an open tank should be provided with a wind-resistant ring to ensure that the API 650 self-anchored tanks tank body maintains its roundness when subjected to wind. There are no hard and fast rules for vault API 650 storage tanks. It can be determined by comparing the equivalent wall height with the maximum height of the unreinforced tank wall.
API 650 self-anchored tanks Visual InspectionUpon completion of all the foregoing tests, the pressure in the tank shall be released and a thorough visual inspection shall be made of both the inside and outside of the tank, giving particular attention to all internal ties, braces, trusses, and their attachments to the walls of the tank. Anchors shall be checked for snug tightness and adjusted if required. Anchor threads shall be fouled by peening or tack welding to prevent loosening. In lieu of thread fouling, double nuts may be used.Rate of Water Filling and Water TemperatureThe rate at which water is introduced into a tank for a hydrostatic test shall not exceed 3 ft of depth per hour. The foundation, venting equipment, or other conditions may limit the water filling to a lower rate. Pressure shall not be applied above the surface of the water before the tank and its contents are at about the same temperature.
No matter what type of storage tank needs to be built, the natural conditions of the geographical area where the tank is located should be fully considered in the design. Because natural conditions will affect the service life, storage safety and construction cost of storage tanks such as API 650 self-anchored tanks. Generally, the natural conditions that need to be considered before API 650 self-anchored tanks design and construction are: regional temperature, wind load, snow load, ground endurance, external environment corrosion, etc.
