API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks shaping of shell plates

API 650 storage tank, double-layer oil tank environmental protection advantages: ordinary single-layer steel API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks oil tank is corroded by underground water and gas and electrolytic corrosion because it is buried underground all year round. The API 650 tank has a double-layer structure with a gap of 0.1 mm. The API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks outer layer of FRP ensures that the leakage will not directly leak into the soil and water source.

In this project, an elemental area of tank wall used is constructed of ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 4000 lbf/in.2 tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 5060 lbf/in.2 compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 75 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 300 in. The joints in the wall are of double-welded butt-joint construction with a tensile efficiency of 85%. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.

Unqualified welding quality of API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks is prone to hidden dangers such as oil tank steel plate cracks and leakage. To avoid this situation as much as possible, it needs to be avoided when the oil storage tank is manufactured. Scientific and reasonable measures are adopted to control the welding quality when welding the API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks. How to reasonably control the welding process quality of oil storage tanks?

Enterprise mission: to create value added steel products API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks and provide first-class serviceWe are committed to quality. It is to firmly establish the concept that quality is the life of an enterprise, and make it clear that quality is the decisive factor for the survival and development of an enterprise. Adhere to the quality brand strategy and strive to improve the comprehensive competitiveness with quality as the core.Core values of the enterprise: innovation, dedication and transcendence. It is a highly refined spiritual quality to our staff.

We have efficient and quick logistic team service. We promise that after the customer places the order, the spot products will be shipped, processed, and cut on the same day. The steel API standard 650 self-anchored flat-bottom tanks products will be shipped in 2-5 days according to the characteristics of the product. The company has always been adhering to the service concept of "integrity, pragmatism, enthusiasm" and dedicated to providing our customers with high-quality steel products and after-sales service.

The company attaches great importance to the cultivation of team spirit. Personal strength is weak. After sales service departments, leaders and subordinates often communicate with each other. Everyone often holds meetings to discuss their problems in after-sales service, discuss technical difficulties, discuss how to improve work efficiency, how to better deal with user complaints, etc.
