double-deck roof API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks

In this project, an area of tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. 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 6000 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.

API 650 sets minimum requirements for the design, material, construction, and testing for aboveground, open and closed-top, cylindrical API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks steel storage tanks in different capacities and sizes, roughly equating to the pressure of the atmosphere (not greater than the weight of the roof plates).

In December of 2015, our regular India customer sent us an inquiry for API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks pipe. The inquiry requires no negative tolerance in both pipes’ outer diameter and pipe wall. After two weeks’ discussion, he put the order of 275 tons to us. The pipes are finished within just one month. Our customer come to our factory to inspect the quality and tolerance, all the products are well meet his demand. The pipes are arriving to Nhava Sheva port, customer is very happy with our products and service during the process.

API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks Drain hole: The drain hole is generally installed at the bottom of the oil tank, used to remove sludge when cleaning the oil tank, and usually used to drain the sewage in the tank. API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks Safety valve: The role of the safety valve is to play a safety role when the breathing valve fails during the operation of the oil tank. Its working pressure is slightly higher than the pressure of the breathing valve, which can prevent the tank from being damaged due to the high positive or negative pressure in the tank. The safety valve is usually installed in the middle of the API Std 650 aboveground steel oil storage tanks top.
