API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks lap-welded bottom joints

Welding inspection of bottom plate of API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks, vertical oil tank: During the fabrication and installation of API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks, the bottom edge plate is welded first. According to the requirements of the technical standard, penetrant inspection is required for the weld of edge plate at the bottom of API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks, that is, penetrant testing is required for each weld bead priming, filling and capping. In the process of testing, if any defect is found, it shall be repaired immediately. After the repair, the surface coloring penetrant test shall be conducted again until the test result is qualified.

The inner and outer tanks may be decoupled for seismic design of the tank and anchorage and assumed to act independently. However, if the inner and outer tanks API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks are supported by a common foundation, the seismic foundation loading shall be calculated using the lesser response modification values for either the inner tank or outer tank for both tanks and a dynamic analysis shall be performed to determine the combined effect.
Allowable Stresses: For Appendix R tanks, design allowable stresses shall be per API 620 large low pressure storage tank, Section R.3.3.

Corrosion allowance, if specified, shall be added to calculated API 650 tanks shell and self-supporting roof thicknesses; to minimum nominal thicknesses of bottom and supported API standard 650 welded aluminum storage tanks roof plates; to nozzles and manholes; and to all exposed surfaces of internal structural members and non-removable internals.
