API standard 650 fixed roof tanks carbon steel anchor straps

API 650 storage tanks API standard 650 Fixed roof tanks are only suitable for containers that can evenly support the entire bottom and containers for non-refrigerated equipment with a design maximum temperature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit. It API standard 650 fixed roof tanks requires a minimum thickness of 3/16 inch. Other characteristics of the API 650 storage tank are: it is composed of carbon steel, austenitic duplex stainless steel and aluminum.

In this project, an area of tank wall is constructed of ASTM A285, Grade C, steel plate that is 5/8-in. thick and has spot-radiographed, double-welded butt joints. The wall is subject to tension in a meridional direction and to compression in a latitudinal direction. The values of R1 and R2 at the point under consideration are 75 in. and 300 in. respectively. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required. The computed (meridional) tensile stress, stc, in the net thickness after deduction of the corrosion allowance is 6000 lbf/in.2.
The problem in this example is to find the maximum allowable (latitudinal) compressive stress value for the given conditions, in conformance with the provisions of API 620 tank standard 5.5.4.5.

The specifications used in the design of large oil tanks, API standard 650 fixed roof tanks mainly include American Petroleum Institute Standard API 650, Japanese Industrial Standard JIS B8501, British Industrial Standard BS2654 and Chinese National Standard GB50341 from a global perspective. The formulas used in each specification are based on the hoop stress in the membrane theory. Each specification is based on the performance characteristics of materials and the construction technology level of their respective countries to determine the allowable stresses and weld coefficients. Therefore, the calculation results of tank wall thickness of API standard 650 fixed roof tanks with the same volume are sometimes quite different according to different specifications.

Training is one of the important factors in the construction of corporate culture. Online training system can be used to enable all employees to take advantage of fragmented time and carry out targeted training anytime and anywhere without the limitation of time and region. Through training to improve work skills, at the same time, through training, let all improve their quality education level, let employees work around a goal, create a career, and produce results.

Land transportation inquiry: (RMB fee) it is required to master the kilometers and towing price of major cities; packing price of each port area; customs clearance fee, commodity inspection fee, and animal and plant inspection fee standard. Key information to be clarified after accepting the consignation of the consignor (generally fax): shipping date, number of packages, box type, box quantity, gross weight and volume.

We guarantee to provide all technical data required by users within one hour to provide reasonable quotation; to provide API standard 650 fixed roof tanks reasonable quotation for products consulted by users within one hour; to provide investigation reception: we guarantee to receive the investigation of users at any time and provide various convenient conditions for users.
