API Std 650 SUG II tanks allowable stresses

API 650 petroleum storage tanks are used for API Std 650 SUG II tanks storage. API 650 petroleum storage tanks can be made of carbon steel, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloy (only for low temperature). Welding API Std 650 SUG II tanks certification is regulated by Section 10 of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). For API 650 petroleum storage tanks, non-destructive inspections are required, but third-party inspections are not required.

Allowable Design Stresses
The maximum allowable design stresses for the API Std 650 SUG II tanks materials outlined in Q.2.1 shall be in accordance with Table Q-3.The values for the allowable design tensile stress given in Table Q-3 for materials other than bolting steel are the lesser of (a) 331/3% of the specified minimum ultimate tensile strength for the material or (b) 662/3% of the specified minimum yield strength, but they are 75% of the specified minimum yield strength for the stainless steel, nickel alloy, and aluminum materials. Allowable test stresses are based on the limitation of API 620 oil tank storage standard Q.8.1.3.

Generally, the snow load in the API Std 650 SUG II tanks construction area should be considered before the design and construction of the tank. The snow load in the API Std 650 SUG II tanks construction area has an impact on the tank roof design and operation, especially in the area with large snow load, the roof load of large storage tank with large diameter increases. Anti freezing, heat preservation and waterproof measures shall be taken for the additional facilities of storage tanks, such as pumps, breathing valves, flame arresters, detection instruments and thermal insulation layers.

Training is one of the important factors in the construction of corporate culture. Online training system can be used to enable all employees to take advantage of fragmented time and carry out targeted training anytime and anywhere without the limitation of time and region. Through training to improve work skills, at the same time, through training, let all improve their quality education level, let employees work around a goal, create a career, and produce results.
