API Std 650 mechanically-anchored tanks annular ring requirements

Before welding the API Std 650 mechanically-anchored tanks, the professional skills of the welding personnel shall be fully assessed to ensure that the operators meet the corresponding welding qualifications. According to the technical standards, scientific and feasible process requirements are actually formulated. In the process of welding the edge plate of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored tanks, electric welding is required on one side of the edge plate, so that the edge plate has a free shrinkage effect and greatly reduces the residual stress of the welding seam.

Aftershock Level Earthquake (ALE)
This design case shall be applicable only when regulations or project documents specifically require the tank system to be designed or evaluated for aftershocks.
If the outer tank is not designed as a secondary containment (i.e. it serves as vapor barrier and pressure boundary only and is not constructed of API 620 material suitable for the inner tank API Std 650 mechanically-anchored tanks), then no design or evaluation for ALE is required by these provisions for the inner or outer tank.

In Appendix E to API 650 oil storage tank, the maximum values of inertia force, pulse pressure and convection pressure are superimposed, and tend to be conservative.In GB50341, only pulse pressure is calculated for API Std 650 mechanically-anchored tanks tanks below 5000 m.

Strengthen system construction. The system itself has a certain binding force, which specifies the rights and obligations of employees. It is a passive management means for employees. Its purpose is to promote each employee to develop good professional habits, form good behavior norms, and promote the improvement of enterprise management level.
