API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks with a mat foundation

API 650 sets minimum requirements for the design, material, construction, and testing for aboveground, open and closed-top, cylindrical API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks steel storage tanks in different capacities and sizes, roughly equating to the pressure of the atmosphere (not greater than the weight of the roof plates).

Heat-affected zone impact specimens shall be taken across the weld and as near the surface of the material as is practicable. The API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks material specimens shall be of sufficient length to locate the notch in the heat-affected zone after etching. The notch shall be cut approximately normal to the material surface to include as much heat-affected zone material as possible in the resulting fracture. Impact test specimens shall be cooled to the temperature stated in Q.22.

Generally, external environment corrosion should be considered before design and construction of API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks and so on storage tanks. The corrosion on the outer surface of storage tank is often worse than that on the inner surface. Especially in the chemical industry area, there are often acid fog, alkali or salt dust in the atmosphere. These impurities form an active corrosive medium with dew or steam and oxygen in the atmosphere. The corrosion of the external environment of the storage tank shortens the maintenance period of the storage tank, even causes the storage tank to be scrapped in advance, which affects the normal operation of the storage and transportation.
