Requirements for prefabrication of the top of large vertical API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks: The prefabrication of the tank top shall be prefabricated in blocks according to the drawings. Pay attention to the spacing of the welds after installation when setting out the material. Reinforcing ribs should be formed and inspected with an arc-shaped template. When a single top plate needs to be spliced, butt joints should be used. The forming of a single top plate should be welded between the reinforcing ribs and the top plate on the mould. After forming, check with an arc-shaped sample plate, and the gap should not be greater than 10 mm.

Low-pressure Storage Tanks for Liquefied Hydrocarbon Gases
API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks Primary Components: In general, primary components include those components that may be stressed to a significant level, those whose failure would permit leakage of the liquid being stored, those exposed to a refrigerated temperature between –60°F and –270°F, and those that are subject to thermal shock. The primary components shall include, but will not be limited to, the following parts of a single-wall tank or of the inner tank in a double-wall tank: shell plates; bottom plates; roof plates; knuckle plates; compression rings; shell stiffeners; and manways and nozzles including reinforcement, shell anchors, pipe, tubing, forgings, and bolting.

Standard API 650 tank calls for calculations based on the specific gravity of the liquid product being stored. This permits the thickness of the steel API Std 650 open top welded storage tanks needed as well as other specifications of how the tank is built to be determined by the weight of the API 650 tank.
