API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks roof load

This standard applies only to API 650 tank API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks whose entire bottom is uniformly supported and to API 650 tank in non-refrigerated service that have a maximum design temperature of 93°C (200 °F) or less.

API 620 Steel Oil Tank Bottom and Shell Support
The tank API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks under-bottom insulation shall be designed to resist the combined pressures from the product load, the overturning seismic load and the vertical seismic load. These seismic pressures may be combined by SRSS.
The bearing ring under the shell shall be designed to resist the calculated OLE peak compressive force in the tank shell due to overturning (see API 650 oil tank, Section E.6.2.2), including dead and live loads. A 33 % increase in allowable bearing stress is permitted.

Inspection of weld and micro crack of API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks: the inner and outer surface of API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks, weld and heat affected zone shall be observed by naked eyes first. 100% ultrasonic testing or 100% penetrant testing are carried out for butt welds of API Std 650 ground supported liquid storage tanks. For the defects found by 100% magnetic particle inspection, dye detection, 100% ultrasonic inspection or 100% penetrant inspection, the radiographic inspection shall be used again to ensure the accuracy of the test results.
