Mechanical loading on API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks

The bottom plate of the vertical API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks directly contacts with the foundation soil, which is suitable for the flexible foundation, and its settlement characteristics are quite different from that of the rigid foundation. For the settlement calculation of the foundation of a vertical API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks, the one-way compression layered sum method can be used. The calculation method is to divide the foundation soil into several layers of compression within the calculation depth of the foundation settlement, and then find the sum. The calculation method of the compression amount of each layer is the same as the calculation method of the compression amount under the condition of no lateral deformation.

Responsibility of API 620 storage tanks ExaminerThe inspector shall ensure that all materials used in tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard comply in all respects with the requirements of these rules. This shall be done either by witnessing mill tests or examining certified mill test reports supplied by the Manufacturer. Storage tanks API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard shall be inspected and tested in accordance with the sections that follow. The inspector shall carefully follow the fabrication and testing of each tank and shall make sure that they comply in all details with the design, fabrication, and tests specified in these rules.

API 650 can store oil, gas, chemical, water and biofuel for some of the most common tanks in the oil industry. API 650 can store contents at a lower pressure (maximum of 2 PSI) but at much higher temperature (-40 degrees F to 500 degrees F) than the standards of API Std 650 mechanically-anchored flat-bottom tanks. It can be any tank size.
