API 650 self-anchored tanks butt-welded bottom joints
The quality inspection department is responsible for the inspection management of raw materials and finished products, and the quality inspection and acceptance of products and raw materials. Strictly abide by the company's management system, conscientiously exercise the management power given by the company, and put an end to all ultra vires; be responsible for the inspection of all kinds of raw materials entering the company, and put forward quality problems and handling opinions.Any joints between the adjacent sections of API 620 oil storage tank stiffening rings, as shown in Figure Q-1, shall be made so that the required moment of inertia of the combined ring-shell section is provided. Weld joints between adjacent sections shall be made with full-thickness and full-penetration butt-welds. Stiffening-ring butt-welds may employ metal backing strips. Backing strips and the associated welding shall be made in a manner that provides a smooth contour in the rat hole and all other weld joint ends. All weld passes shall be started at the rat hole and other weld joint ends and shall be completed by moving away from these ends. Passes shall be overlapped away from edges to provide a smooth continuous weld.BBN excels in the design, fabrication and erection of API-650 tanks. API (American Petroleum Institute) has created a set of standards for above ground API 650 self-anchored tanks oil storage, but these tanks are also commonly used for gasoline, chemical and water storage. API-650 storage tank solutions range in size from an 8’ -0” diameter shop fabricated tank up to and beyond 100’ -0” diameter field erected storage tank applications.The company always adheres to the concept of green production, follows the development path of innovation, transformation and improvement, and has carried out in-depth cooperation with Zhengzhou University and other scientific research institutes, planning from a high starting point, strict standard design, and successfully implementing engineering projects With nearly 20 research and development projects, the company's production technology and equipment are at the forefront of the industry, and indicators such as environmental protection, energy consumption, cost, and resource utilization have reached the advanced level in the industry.Strictly control the welding groove forming of API 650 self-anchored tanks: in order to ensure the geometric dimension of assembly and good welding of welding seam, before hoisting and laying, the edge of all metal vertical storage tank plate shall be polished by grinder, and the flatness of plate shall be ensured according to the design requirements. Strictly control the size of API 650 self-anchored tanks weld assembly: measures must be taken to strictly control the assembly size of metal vertical tank bottom plate during assembly.
