The design and construction for API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks

Using advanced logistics management, advanced models and management experience to increase the reliability of logistics operations and provide customers with 24/7 cargo management. On the premise of reducing transportation and management costs as much as possible, we provide customers with high-quality and efficient services; good business reputation has been recognized and supported by our customers.All welded seams in the API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks bottom, and complete penetration and complete fusion sidewall-to-bottom welds, shall be inspected by means of a vacuum box test as described in Q.8.2.1. Sidewall-to-bottom welds not having complete penetration and complete fusion shall be inspected by means of either a vacuum box test of the inside weld as described in API 620 specification Q.8.2.1, or where approved by the Purchaser, a direct pressure solution film test as described in Q.8.2.2.our company is a professional ASTM A573 Grade 70/A573 Gr.70 carbon manganese silicon steel plates steel exporter and a steel Stockist in china. We keep more than API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks 1000 tons ASTM A573 Grade 70/A573 Gr.70 carbon manganese silicon steel plates steel in stock every month.API 650 storage tank is used for commonly used oil, gasoline, diesel, chemical and production water storage. API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks Storage tanks built to these standards are spread across U.S. refineries, terminals, pipelines, and production facilities. The API 650 detailed standard specifies the design, processing, welding, inspection and installation procedures for storage tanks.The specifications used in the design of large oil tanks, API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks mainly include American Petroleum Institute Standard API 650, Japanese Industrial Standard JIS B8501, British Industrial Standard BS2654 and Chinese National Standard GB50341 from a global perspective. The formulas used in each specification are based on the hoop stress in the membrane theory. Each specification is based on the performance characteristics of materials and the construction technology level of their respective countries to determine the allowable stresses and weld coefficients. Therefore, the calculation results of tank wall thickness of API standard 650 ground-supported liquid storage tanks with the same volume are sometimes quite different according to different specifications.
