API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks roof plate

Selection of nominal diameter D of API 650 storage tank. In the design calculation of API 650 storage tank, the bottom plate thickness is the net plate thickness, that is, the actual thickness minus the corrosion allowance. In the design and calculation of API standard 650 closed top welded storage tanks wall thickness in hydrostatic test, the thickness of bottom plate is the total thickness of steel plate.

Our company's business departments are a group of excellent and hard-working employees, who constantly carry out knowledge updating and steel knowledge training every day, only to provide better and professional services to customers.
