How to test roof seams of API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks

The factors that affect the "small breathing" loss of API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks are: 1. Generally, the larger the storage tank is, the larger the total open area is, the larger the evaporation area is, and the greater the "small breathing" loss is; conversely, the smaller the storage tank is, the smaller the evaporation area is and the smaller the "small breathing" loss is. 2. It is related to the atmosphere. The lower the atmospheric pressure is, the greater the "small breathing" loss is; otherwise, the loss is reduced.Ultrasonic Examination of Butt-welds in Plates
Butt-welds in all tank wall courses subjected to a maximum actual operating membrane tensile stress, perpendicular to the welded joint, greater than 0.1 times the specified minimum tensile strength of the API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks plate material shall be completely examined.
Butt-welds in API 620 oil tank wall courses subjected to maximum actual operating membrane tensile stress, perpendicular to the welded joint, less than or equal to 0.1 times the specified minimum tensile strength of plate material shall be spot examined in accordance with Figure Q-2.API 650 internal floating roof API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks tank can be used to store gasoline, jet fuel and other volatile oil products, as well as aldehydes, alcohols (methanol, ethanol), ketones (acetone), benzene (benzene, toluene, xylene, styrene) and other liquid chemicals.Enterprise Motto:Integrity, harmony, dedication, innovation and developmentAbility is the cornerstone of success; action is the ladder of successGrow with the enterprise; progress with the enterpriseGive a platform to those who actually do things and a stage to those who successfully do thingsDare to be the first, to pursue excellence.We are engaged in API standard 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks corten steel, weathering steel, atmosphere corrosion resistant steel materials.
