API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks roofs

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.

API 650 petroleum storage tank body design is mainly the design of tank bottom, API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks tank top and tank wall, and the design of tank wall is particularly important. As the main pressure bearing part of API 650 petroleum storage tank, the tank wall bears loads including liquid pressure, wind pressure, seismic load, opening stress, etc. The calculation of such loads is explained in detail in various API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks storage tank design standards. But in addition, the API 650 petroleum storage tank wall also bears the push-pull force and torque of the connected pipeline.

FANALCA is the biggest motorcycle factory in Columbia. Meanwhile, it is the only distributor in Colombia for Japanese Honda. We began to cooperate with each other since 2017. We supply SAPH370, SAPH440 and so on automobile steel coils to them. As our products quality is proved to be satisfied during their production, they have been one of our stable customers, and give repeat orders about automobile steel every year.

The coating on the outer wall of API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks can not only reflect light but also prevent corrosion. Different coatings for oil tanks have different reflective properties, and the reflective performance of coatings is expressed by reflection index. For example, the reflection index of white coating is 90.0, that of sky blue coating is 85.0, and that of light gray coating is 57.0. It can be seen that the white coating has good reflective performance, and coating the outer surface of API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks with white coating can reduce the evaporation consumption of the oil tank.
