Design requirements for API 650 stainless steel storage tanks

Prefabrication requirements of API 650 stainless steel storage tanks, large vertical storage tank wall panels:
1. The prefabrication of wall panel shall be processed in strict accordance with the requirements of the drawings, and inspection records shall be made.
2. After the wall panel is rolled, it should be placed on the platform for inspection with a template. In the vertical direction, use a straight-line template to check, the gap should not be greater than 2 mm, and in the horizontal direction, use an arc-shaped template to check, and the interval should not be greater than 4 mm.
3. When wall panels are rounded, attention should be paid to prevent irreversible plastic deformation caused by external forces. After rolling, it should be placed on the platform for inspection, and then placed on the prepared mold.

Allowable compressive stresses shall be in accordance with 5.5.4 except that for aluminum alloy plate the allowable compressive stresses shall be reduced by the ratio of the modulus of compressive elasticity to 29,000 for values of (t – c)/R less than 0.0175 and by the ratio of the minimum yield strength for the aluminum alloy in question to 30,000 for values of (t – c)/R equal to or greater than 0.0175 (see 5.5.2 for definitions). In all other equations in this standard API 650 stainless steel storage tanks where yield strength or modulus of elasticity is used, such as Equations 27 and 28, similar corrections shall be made for aluminum alloys.

Determination of API 650 oil tank container: The total volume should be determined according to factors such as transportation mode and API 650 stainless steel storage tanks fuel supply cycle. For train and ship transportation, the maximum consumption is not less than 20-30 days; the maximum consumption for automobile transportation is not less than 5-10 days.

The 2019 Year of the Pig is the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Growing up with the motherland, our company sang songs to the mark the 70th victory anniversary. In September, we organized all employees to sing "My Country and I" and made a film.
