API 650 special tank design metal temperature

Shell Stiffening Rings for Tanks That Contain Liquid
Internal or external shell stiffening rings may be required to maintain roundness when the tank is subjected to wind, vacuum, or other specified loads. When API 650 special tank stiffening rings are required, the stiffener-to-shell weld details shall be in accordance with Figure Q-1 and Q.3.5.2 through Q.3.5.5.
Three-plate laps or butt-weld junctions in tank bottoms shall be not closer than 12 in. from each other or from the butt-welds of the annular plates.
Bottom plates, other than annular bottom plates for a 9% or 5% nickel steel or stainless steel tank that contains liquid, may have a minimum thickness of 3/16 in. exclusive of any specified corrosion allowance.API 650 storage tank stipulates that if the thickness of the lower wall panel obtained by calculating the anti-overturning moment is greater than the thickness of the API 650 special tank hydrostatic pressure test (both do not include the corrosion allowance).BBN had provided API 650 special tank Hardox plates for more than 15 years for widely applied in coal mining machinery, cement equipment, road construction machinery, engineering machinery, dump trucks, metallurgical area and port fields. In 2016,we brought our customer to visit our API 650 special tank NM400 steel plate producing line and our Shanghai warehouse for 30000 tons plate and structure. As a result, Our client purchased 500 tons NM 400 as first order, which is shipped by 3 times. In future, BBN will always guarantee that all the delivery condition for Hardox plate provided will be with quenching and tempering, which is the best delivery type according GBT 24186 standard.Welders participating in the construction of API 650 special tank must pass the examination and perform welding within the validity period of the qualified items. Special operators such as on-site maintenance electricians, cranes, and shelf workers must hold job certificates. All oil pipelines need to use arc welding for bottoming and electric welding to ensure the welding quality. Oil tanks and process pipelines must be tested for non-destructive flaws in accordance with the flaw detection ratios and methods required by the design and acceptance specifications. The flaw detectors must be certified.We are willing to cooperate sincerely with you with high-quality API 650 special tank products and sincere service to expand the market and create brilliant! We will work hard to create a first-class steel company and provide you with faster and more considerate after-sales services! Moreover, our shipbuilding steel plates have been certified by the nine countries' classification societies including DNV, ABC, GL, LR, BV, CCS, RINA, NK, and KR. The quality assurance system has passed ISO9001-2000 standard certification.
