Design requirements for API Std 650 anchored tanks

Under the action of the earthquake, API 650 storage tank is mainly damaged by the phenomenon of the lower part of the API Std 650 anchored tanks tank wall. Therefore, the key point of seismic calculation is to prevent the tank wall from buckling under axial pressure.

The API 650 oil tank stiffener ring and backing strip, if used, are primary components, and they shall comply with the requirements of R.2.1. The API Std 650 anchored tanks stiffener ring may be fabricated from plate using an intermittent weld on alternating sides between the web and the flange. One rat hole with a minimum radius of 3/4 in. shall be provided at each longitudinal shell joint and ring juncture weld.

Compared with the external floating roof API Std 650 anchored tanks, the internal floating roof API Std 650 anchored tanks has the advantages of protecting the floating roof from wind and rain and ensuring the quality of liquid storage under the floating roof. At the same time, because the inner floating plate is in the tank, there is no rain and snow load, so the central drainage pipe and escalator and other accessories on the floating plate can be omitted. In addition, under the same sealing conditions, the internal floating roof tank can further reduce the evaporation loss compared with the External floating roof tank.
