Mechanical loads on API standard 650 self-anchored tank

The floating roof is the top cover floating on the liquid level, so the sealing performance of API standard 650 self-anchored tank API 650 oil storage tank is very important. The floating plate mainly adopts elastic packing, and at the same time, it is compressed with the wall of API 650 oil storage tank with pressure strip around, and fixed with the floating plate with bolts. After the API standard 650 self-anchored tank floating plate is lowered to a certain position of about 1.8m, a prop will support the floating plate to keep it in position.

No matter what type of storage tank needs to be built, the natural conditions of the geographical area where the tank is located should be fully considered in the design. Because natural conditions will affect the service life, storage safety and construction cost of storage tanks such as API standard 650 self-anchored tank. Generally, the natural conditions that need to be considered before API standard 650 self-anchored tank design and construction are: regional temperature, wind load, snow load, ground endurance, external environment corrosion, etc.

In this project, a cylindrical tank 62 ft 6 in. in diameter is designed for an internal pressure of 4 lbf/in.2 gauge in the vapor space. The plate material is ASTM A131 steel with appropriate grades for different plate thicknesses in accordance with Table 4-1 for a design metal temperature less than 65°F but not less than 25°F. No corrosion allowance is required for any portion of the tank. The top course of the butt-welded cylindrical sidewall is 1/4 in. thick. The roof is a single lap-welded spherical dome with an internal radius of 50 ft and a thickness of 1/4 in. The maximum design liquid level is 6 in. below the plane of the juncture of the tank API standard 650 self-anchored tank roof and sidewall.

In the final analysis, the market competition is the competition for customers. Whether selling products or services, the final customer satisfaction is the standard to test the success or failure of marketing work. The so-called after-sales service is to fully understand customers, study customer psychology, pay attention to after-sales details, improve work shortcomings, improve service quality, and Exchange customer brand loyalty through the whole process of quality service.

"Efficiency is benefit, time is money", the company is equipped with a high standard logistics team. After the products pass the factory inspection, they will coordinate the shipment as soon as possible according to customer requirements and schedules to hand over the booked steel materials to customers at the first time, to ensure no delay of customer's project progress, to strive for more project preparation time for customers.
