API Std 650 liquid storage tanks nameplates

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.API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are generally called external floating roof API Std 650 liquid storage tanks tanks, which means that the storage tanks are externally open tanks without a dome design, and are equipped with vertical floating roofs. API 650 external floating roof storage tanks are usually used for large More than 20,000 cubic meters of open steel API Std 650 liquid storage tanks storage tanks for storing volatile petroleum products such as crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, etc.We participated the National Railway tender of Bangladesh with our local agent together, and won the 1000 tons corten steel sheets order. The corten steel sheets are used to make train carriage. We finished production of the 1000 tons corten steel API Std 650 liquid storage tanks sheets within 40 days, and arranged SGS test for the customer before shipment. The customer gave very high comments to our product and service quality, as well as fast delivery.The main contents of safety inspection for atmospheric storage tank, API Std 650 liquid storage tanks are to see whether the tank foundation is sunk, whether the tank is corroded, whether there are cracks in the tank body and bottom, whether there is concave convex phenomenon on the top and wall of the tank, whether the accessories of the storage tank are in good condition, etc. After the API Std 650 liquid storage tanks safety inspection and detection, the defects found in the tank should be handled according to the inspection rules in time to ensure the normal and safe use of the storage tank in the later stage.There is a careful, patient, enthusiastic and thoughtful after-sales team, a professional distribution, ultra-efficient warehouse and logistics center, a marketing team with marketing expertise, an innovative technology center with strong steel technology, an experienced manufacturing center with rigorous professionalism Quality Inspection Center, an operation team with many years of administrative management experience. Such a strong combination of teams makes BEBON a steel giant in Henan Province.
