API standard 650 tanks method for estimating tank uplift

API 650 petroleum storage tank stipulates that if the thickness of the lower siding obtained by calculating the anti-overturning moment is greater than the thickness of the API standard 650 tanks hydrostatic pressure test (both do not include the corrosion margin), the calculated thickness of the above siding required by the hydrostatic pressure is It should also be increased by the same proportion, unless special analysis is performed to determine the seismic overturning moment and corresponding stress at the bottom of each layer of API 650 petroleum storage tank wall.

The establishment of a correct method for evaluating the life of API standard 650 tanks requires the preparation of criteria related to the strength and cracks of API standard 650 tanks, mechanical damage mechanisms, corrosion mechanisms, and mathematical models of fatigue crack growth, etc., which are compiled into computer programs. In the process of programming the program, it is required to select the operating parameters, plates, reinforcement accessories, metal properties, corrosion levels, mechanical damage defects and other data of the oil storage tank under various conditions.

Allowable Design Stresses
The maximum allowable design stresses for the API standard 650 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.
