The construction of foundations for API 650 larger diameter tanks

Define the welding sequence of API 650 larger diameter tanks bottom plate: the welding sequence of metal vertical storage tank shall be carried out according to the procedure required by the welding scheme. Spot welding shall be consistent with the formal welding requirements, and no spot welding shall be carried out for the weld not welded. Back bar should be added to prevent deformation when welding the full length seam of middle plate, butt joint of edge plate and turtle shell joint.

Allowable Design Stresses
The maximum allowable design stresses for the API 650 larger diameter 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.

Under the same sealing effect, the internal API 650 larger diameter tanks floating roof API 650 tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the external floating roof API 650 tank. This is due to the shielding of the fixed roof and the gas phase layer between the fixed roof and the inner floating plate, which has more significant heat insulation effect than the double disc floating roof of the API 650 larger diameter tanks external floating roof tank.

To the society: With the development of the company, BEBON has always adhered to the development mission of "developing heavy industry for the benefit of all mankind; improving the environment and achieving sustainable development”, operating with integrity and paying taxes in accordance with law.For our employees, the company fully respect employee value, pursuing mutual development of enterprise and employees.

BBN company is an industry leading steel service center that supplies a full line of hot rolled steel plate in a variety of sizes, grades and finishes. Hot rolled steel is an economical option that offers reliable performance and versatility. In the API 650 larger diameter tanks hot rolled process, high temperature is used to heat the steel above its recrystallization point. In this state it becomes more malleable, allowing it to be easily formed into a variety of shapes. If you are interested in A36 hot rolled plates price, welcome to come and visit us.
