Inspection of Welded storage tanks Surfaces Exposed during FabricationThe edges of API Std 650 liquid-storage tanks plates, openings and fittings exposed during fabrication shall be inspected carefully to make sure that any defects have been uncovered, as well as to determine that the work has been performed properly.Minor defects found may be repaired only after the inspector approves the method and extent of repairs. Materials that have more than minor defects that cannot be satisfactorily repaired shall be rejected.Spot radiographic or ultrasonic examination shall be not less than 6 in. extending along the weld. Spot radiography shall comply with the standards given in 7.15.1.3. Where spot radiographic or ultrasonic examination is applied at joint intersections, the surface shall be prepared and examined for a distance of 3 in. on each side of the intersection, making the minimum length of examination 6 in. on the horizontal weld and 3 in. on the vertical weld.

}Requirements for prefabrication of the top of large vertical API Std 650 liquid-storage tanks: The prefabrication of the tank top shall be prefabricated in blocks according to the drawings. Pay attention to the spacing of the welds after installation when setting out the material. Reinforcing ribs should be formed and inspected with an arc-shaped template. When a single top plate needs to be spliced, butt joints should be used. The forming of a single top plate should be welded between the reinforcing ribs and the top plate on the mould. After forming, check with an arc-shaped sample plate, and the gap should not be greater than 10 mm.
