EN 10025 S355JK plates API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks

The API 650 petroleum storage tank standard is one of the most widely used design specifications. It is the API 650 standard of the American Petroleum Institute. The main goal of the API 650 standard is to promote the purchase and construction of vertical, above-ground, and welded manufacturing API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks tanks through the requirements contained in its parts to ensure that the required safety regulations are met.

In this project, an elemental area of tank wall used is constructed of ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 4000 lbf/in.2 tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 5060 lbf/in.2 compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 75 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 300 in. The joints in the wall are of double-welded butt-joint construction with a tensile efficiency of 85%. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A442 Grade 55 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.

In order to ensure the safety of the vertical storage tank, API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks, the supplier should inspect the tank carefully before delivery. The failure of the tank body is mainly due to the weld and crack of the product. The inspection of API standard 650 carbon and low-alloy steel tanks, vertical storage tank weld and microcrack is mainly to inspect the appearance forming quality of weld. The inspection contents include weld leg height, undercut, welding deformation, weld bead, arc pit, weld straightness, etc., as well as the internal quality of weld, such as slag inclusion, porosity, incomplete penetration, crack, incomplete fusion, etc.
