Soil-structure interaction effects for API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank

API 650 Tanks in which liquid fluids are stored and designed to withstand atmospheric pressure operation, less than 18 kPa, or internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank roof, with temperatures no higher than 93, 3 C are included in the scope of this design code.

The API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank must go through strict inspection before putting into use. Inspection of plate groove of API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank, vertical oil tank: After finishing the groove processing of oil tank plate, it is necessary to conduct dye penetrant inspection on the groove. This process is mainly aimed at the hard damage of groove in the machining process and the defects of the plate itself. If any defect is found, it shall be processed again until the defect disappears.

Investigation of Subgrade
On actual steel storage tank sites to be used, test borings or test pits, or both, may be made at the direction of a competent engineer who will specify the number and location. They need not be equally spaced but should be laid out to uncover possible weak spots.
In general, test loadings of subgrade at the bottom of test pits need be resorted to only when such heavy loading as may be imposed by footings for major column supports for spheres or similarly elevated API 620 low-pressure tanks is specified. Results may be deceptive if average load-bearing capacity over a considerable area is wanted. All field data shall be recorded with maps, and copies shall be supplied to all engineers concerned with design, erection, and later operation.

The business department is mainly responsible for communicating with customers, from the manufacturing of steel plates, steel pipes and other products, knowing customers' needs and processing conditions, etc. within the time agreed with customers, the delivery time is short, the price is the most competitive, and the service is the best. Their responsibilities are to deal with customer consultation, solve customer problems, update production plans, and instruct the logistics department to deliver products to customers.

The company has huge steel API Std 650 unanchored flat-bottom tank products stock all the year round to meet the urgent needs of customers. For stock products, we can arrange delivery within 3 days. The transportation department and shipping department shall coordinate and follow up to update the progress to customers regularly, i.e. where the goods have arrived, so as to let customers not worry and rest assured.
