API standard 650 carbon steel storage tanks dead load

The internal floating plate of internal floating roof tank of API 650 tank is different from that of open floating plate of API standard 650 carbon steel storage tanks External floating roof tank of API 650 tank, so it is impossible to have rain and snow load.

Foundations and subgrade shall safely carry the weight of the tank API standard 650 carbon steel storage tanks and its contents when the tank is filled with water to the highest level required for a hydrostatic test or other water-loading operations, even though the tank itself may be designed for some lesser density of liquid. However, in cases where the character of the soil justifies it and a competent soil expert advises it, allowance may be made for the relatively short duration and intermittent nature of the water loadings if suitable account is taken of all such loadings that may be expected to occur during the life of the tank, including not only those loadings that are incidental to periodic repetitions of the hydrostatic test in accordance with 7.18 but also water-filling operations for gas-freeing purposes.

The mechanical seal of floating roof API standard 650 carbon steel storage tanks relies on mechanical force to press the sealing steel plate tightly against the tank wall, so that it can slide on the tank wall and avoid gap as far as possible. However, mechanical seal has high requirements for the geometry of storage tank and poor adaptability, so mechanical seal is rarely used in newly built floating roof API standard 650 carbon steel storage tanks.
