API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks roof and top angle joints

Floating roofs shall comply with API standard 650, Appendix C (Attachment 01) or with the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks requirements as layed (laid )down in the national Chinese specifications SH3046-92 and GBJ128-90.

Oil storage tank with floating roof structure: The floating roof in the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks oil storage tank can effectively reduce the volatilization consumption of oil, because the gas space on the oil liquid surface in the floating roof storage tank is small, the exhaust volume is low, and the breathing loss is very small. That can reduce the volatilization loss caused by the "big breath" of the API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks. Strengthen the inspection and maintenance of API Std 650 flat-bottom steel tanks: regularly check the sealing conditions of oil storage tanks, and check and maintain important auxiliary equipment to ensure good sealing performance.

In this project, an area of steel storage oil 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.

Our after sales department is an very important part of our department structures. After the customer receive steel materials, our after sales department will follow up regularly and solve problems for them in time if they have the needs. We romise to return the goods for free for its lifetime if it is quality of the steel material itself. Meanwhile, if you have any advice or complaints, also welcome to feed back to our after sales department, and we are trying to give better service to you.

The company's logistics team adheres to the development concept of “gathering advantages, providing superior services, creating value, and leading the market”, and tightly focuses on the strategic positioning of “developing large-scale steel logistics and building large-scale steel supermarkets”. Facing the whole country and integrating into the world to build an "one center, one network" international circulation system. Through the development of 5-10 years, it is expected to form a modern steel industry with annual operating income exceeding 2.5 billion yuan.
