Selection of nominal diameter D of API 650 storage tank. In the design calculation of API 650 storage tank, the bottom plate thickness is the net plate thickness, that is, the actual thickness minus the corrosion allowance. In the design and calculation of petroleum storage tanks wall thickness in hydrostatic test, the thickness of bottom plate is the total thickness of steel plate.

The horizontal projection of the roof plate within the compression-ring region is 4.9 x 0.866 = 4.25 in., which fulfills the requirement of API 620 tank standard 5.12.5.1. The required area and horizontal projection can be provided by any of the standard angles listed in Table F-3.
Any of these angles may be used in accordance with the details of Figure 5-6, detail a or b, but if details c, h, or i in Figure 5-6 were intended, the net area of the angle must be calculated by deducting the area expected to be lost by corrosion from that part of the angle surface that is exposed to the interior of the tank.

The company has always been adhering to the business philosophy of "integrity-based, responsibility oriented, quality first, reputation first" and is committed to building a world-class steel materials and service provider. We will continue to work hard to carry forward the enterprise tenet of "quality is the life of the enterprise, survival by quality, development by reputation", and become an enterprise with strong vitality! We always keep it in mind that profit is important to enterprises. But what counts more is social responsibility.
