5083 aluminum bar API 650 open top welded storage tanks

Tank cracks are common API 650 open top welded storage tanks defects, mainly including tank wall cracks, internal cracks, weld zone cracks. The reason for these defects may be that the defects not exceeding the standard existed in the early stage of API 650 open top welded storage tanks construction, which become obvious after the later use. Or in the process of using the API 650 open top welded storage tanks, the tank body material generated new defects due to corrosion, pressure, wear and other reasons, and tank cracks.

Above-ground API 650 storage tanks (vertical cylindrical flat-bottomed storage tanks) allow the storage of large volumes of goods at low cost. The only limitation is that they API 650 open top welded storage tanks can be used under atmospheric pressure or relatively small internal pressure. There are different specifications and standards for the design of API 650 storage tanks.

BBN company has implemented a resource strategy combining global resource procurement, domestic resource unified purchase, and joint purchase and distribution. It has maintained good relations of cooperation with more than 100 domestic and foreign steel mills, and can purchase low-quality and high-quality steel futures in all directions and through multiple channels. The company can grasp the specifications and quantities of the spot resources of major steel mills in real time, and can timely and quickly meet customer demand for steel spot resources.

Foundations and subgrade shall safely carry the weight of the tank API 650 open top welded storage tanks and its contents when the tank is filled with water to the highest level required for a hydrostatic test or other water-loading operations, even though the tank itself may be designed for some lesser density of liquid. However, in cases where the character of the soil justifies it and a competent soil expert advises it, allowance may be made for the relatively short duration and intermittent nature of the water loadings if suitable account is taken of all such loadings that may be expected to occur during the life of the tank, including not only those loadings that are incidental to periodic repetitions of the hydrostatic test in accordance with 7.18 but also water-filling operations for gas-freeing purposes.
