API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank tack weld

The welded API 650 tank in various sizes and capacities for internal pressures approximating atmospheric pressure (internal pressures not exceeding the weight of the roof plates), but a higher internal pressure API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank is permitted when additional requirements are met.

Requirements for prefabrication of bottom plate of large vertical API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank:
1. The diameter of tank bottom should be enlarged by 0.1% ~ 0.15% according to the design diameter.
2. The minimum dimension of edge plate along the radius direction of tank bottom shall not be less than 700mm.
3. The distance between any adjacent welds of the base plate shall not be less than 300 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.

Our company's technical department is the core department of the whole company. There are a group of very professional technical personnel. They provide some architectural drawings according to the ideas of customers, and they are responsible for how to select the right materials. Including the evaluation of steel products such as multi steel plate, API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank and steel pipe, grasp the whole production process, and strictly follow the production standards and customer quality requirements.

The company's headquarters has a well-established logistics distribution system, which can quickly transport the steel materials to the port through the contracted logistics companies. Professional contracted logistics companies can significantly reduce costs and various commodity-related expenses. Meanwhile, the flexible transfer ensures that the API 650 cylindrical liquid-storage tank steel materials can be shipped immediately after passing the quality inspection.
