API standard 650 unanchored tanks pontoon openings

Atmospheric API standard 650 unanchored tanks inspection includes annual inspection and comprehensive inspection. Annual inspection is an inspection during operation to ensure the safety of atmospheric storage tanks during the overhaul period, at least once a year. Comprehensive inspection is a more comprehensive inspection of atmospheric storage tanks according to a certain inspection cycle. The inspection content of metal atmospheric API standard 650 unanchored tanks includes the safety management of the storage tank, the inspection of the tank body and its operating conditions, etc.In this project, the area of tank wall used is of the same construction, material, and geometry as that described in F.1.3.1 except that the thickness of the plate is 3/8 in. The wall is stressed in the same manner as is described in F.1.3.1. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 8000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.The API standard 650 unanchored tanks most widely used and most commonly used standard for global storage tank construction and procurement is API 650. The Chinese translation name is "AP1650 Steel Welded Petroleum Storage Tank". API 650 storage tank is for commonly used oil, gasoline, diesel, chemical and production water storage, etc.We have a high-quality elite team, with a wealth of steel products resources and business experience.
