The cracks on the base metal, surface and near surface of the tank wall shall be eliminated by grinding with circular arc, and then magnetic particle inspection or re inspection shall be carried out. Cracks in heat affected zone: generally, grinding method is used to eliminate cracks, and magnetic particle or dye flaw detection is used to confirm that there is no crack, and then repair welding or grinding smooth transition.

refrigerated tanks secondary components are those whose failure would not result in leakage of the liquid being stored. Secondary components also include those API standard 650 stainless steel storage tanks components that are not in contact with the refrigerated liquid but are subject to the refrigerated temperature vapors and have a combined tensile and primary bending stress under design conditions that does not exceed 6000 lbf/in.2. Secondary components that could be designed within this reduced stress are roof plates, including roof manways and nozzles with their reinforcement, roof-supporting structural members, and shell stiffeners.
