CSA G40.21 Gr 44W plates API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks

Above-ground API 650 storage tanks (vertical cylindrical flat-bottomed storage tanks) allow the storage of large volumes of goods at low cost. The only limitation is that they API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks can be used under atmospheric pressure or relatively small internal pressure. There are different specifications and standards for the design of API 650 storage tanks.

The preparatory work before the construction of the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks is an important part of the oil tank project. Material purchase preparation before the construction of the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks:
Before API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks construction, all materials shall be purchased and prepared, and the specifications and quality of materials shall be inspected to see if they meet the construction operation requirements. Fire and rain proof measures should be taken when storing materials. Paint should be stored in a ventilated and dry place.

Preheating should be performed by heating and maintaining this heat in appreciable lengths of the joint to be welded, preferably using a strip burner with a mild flame rather than a harsh flame such as that from a cutting torch. Electrical strip heaters are available and have been found to be satisfactory. The preheat of 300°F should be checked with a temperature-sensitive crayon, or similarly accurate means, so that the steel 4 in. (or four times the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks plate thickness, whichever is greater) on each side of the joint will be maintained at the minimum preheat temperature. Ring burners or heaters are recommended for nozzle and manway welds. At no time during the welding should the base metal fall below a temperature of 300°F.
