Changes in Tank ShapeIf in any of the foregoing tests there is an excessive rise of the bottom of the tank around the boundary of contact with grade, or off its foundations, or if any of the specified conditions of test loading cause other appreciable changes in the shape of the tank, the design shall be reviewed and means shall be provided in the tank for holding the shape within permissible limits under all conditions of loading,API standard 650 petroleum storage tanks. Additional TestsThe tests prescribed in API 620 tank 7.18 are believed to be sufficient for most tanks constructed according to these rules; if, in the opinion of the designer, additional tests are needed to investigate the safety of a tank under certain other conditions of loading, as determined from the design computations, these tests shall be made on the tank involved in addition to the tests specified in this standard.
