18m diameter API standard 650 floating-roof tanks

The manufacturing requirements of bottom plate of vertical metal tank, API standard 650 floating-roof tanks are as follows: 1. In order to compensate welding shrinkage, the layout diameter of tank bottom is 5-2mm than the design diameter; 2. The butt joint of edge plate of tank bottom shall be machined automatically or semi-automatically; 3. The distance between any two adjacent welding joints on the tank bottom plate and the distance between the butt joint of edge plate and the longitudinal weld of bottom ring wall plate shall not be greater than 200 mm.Soil Structure Interaction: Soil structure interaction per API 650, Section E.6.1.6 may be used for OLE design providing the damping ratio does not exceed 10 %.
Allowable Stresses
Design allowable stresses shall be per API 620 large welded steel storage tank, Section Q.3.3, including the 33 % increase permitted for earthquake loads.
Self-anchored Inner Tank
The anchorage ratio for a self-anchored inner tank, J, shall not exceed 1.0 for the OLE design combination to limit uplift and stresses in the annular plate and corner weld.
Foundation Stability
The overturning ratio defined in API 650, Section E.6.2.3, Equation (E.6.2.3-1) shall be equal to or greater than 3.0 for the defined OLE event.This API 650 tank standard is designed to provide industry with tanks of adequate safety and reasonable economy for use in the API standard 650 floating-roof tanks storage of petroleum, petroleum products. and other liquid products.Based on the principle of “sincerity and win-win cooperation”, our company keeps forging ahead.
