API Std 650 welded storage tanks minimum roof live load

Responsibility of API 620 storage tanks ExaminerThe inspector shall ensure that all materials used in tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard comply in all respects with the requirements of these rules. This shall be done either by witnessing mill tests or examining certified mill test reports supplied by the Manufacturer. Storage tanks API Std 650 welded storage tanks constructed according to the rules in this standard shall be inspected and tested in accordance with the sections that follow. The inspector shall carefully follow the fabrication and testing of each tank and shall make sure that they comply in all details with the design, fabrication, and tests specified in these rules.

API 650 storage tank, double-layer oil tank environmental protection advantages: ordinary single-layer steel API Std 650 welded storage 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 Std 650 welded storage tanks outer layer of FRP ensures that the leakage will not directly leak into the soil and water source.

When the API Std 650 welded storage tanks is welded, the weldment should be fixed rigidly. After welding, when the weldment is cooled to normal temperature, the rigid fixation can be removed, which can effectively prevent angular deformation and wave deformation. Although some measures have been taken, the welding deformation of API Std 650 welded storage tanks is still unavoidable, so it is necessary to take corrective measures to compensate the deformation. Mechanical correction is to make the parts easy to deform in the welding process by mechanical or other rigid materials to produce simple deformation, so as to restore the state before welding.
