API standard 650 storage tanks normative references

Combination of Design Loads
The inner tank API standard 650 storage tanks shall be designed for the most critical combinations of loading that result from internal pressure and liquid head, the static insulation pressure, the insulation pressure as the inner tank expands after an in-service period, and the purging or operating pressure of the space between the inner and outer tank shells, unless the pressure is equalized on both sides of the inner tank.

These API 650 documents will define the bases of design, operation, inspection, tests, examinations, and maintenance of an API standard 650 storage tanks industrial facility. Bidders will study and analyze all this API 650 documentation, both during the preparation of the quotation and during the execution of each project activity.

Usually, the wind load in the API standard 650 storage tanks construction area should be considered before the tank design and construction. The wind load in the API standard 650 storage tanks construction area has an impact on the stability and economy of the API standard 650 storage tanks. In the area with large wind load, it is safe to design the tank as "squat". When calculating the wind force, the influence of the thickness of the insulation layer of the API standard 650 storage tanks, the shape of the ladder, the platform, the pipeline and the top cover must be considered.
