API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks load combinations

Lateral braces between outer bay rafters must be provided if asymmetrical structural shapes are used for rafters and if the API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks API 650 tanks are located in areas subject to earthquakes. The bracing must be adequately sized for the seismic zone specified.

Oil storage tank is an important equipment commonly used in petroleum and petrochemical industry. New API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks, metal storage tank must be tested before it can be put into use or put into storage. The common inspection methods of API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks include radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing and dye penetrant testing. The parts and operation requirements of these testing methods are different, so they should be selected according to the required characteristics.

Allowable compressive stresses shall be in accordance with 5.5.4 except that for aluminum alloy plate the allowable compressive stresses shall be reduced by the ratio of the modulus of compressive elasticity to 29,000 for values of (t – c)/R less than 0.0175 and by the ratio of the minimum yield strength for the aluminum alloy in question to 30,000 for values of (t – c)/R equal to or greater than 0.0175 (see 5.5.2 for definitions). In all other equations in this standard API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks where yield strength or modulus of elasticity is used, such as Equations 27 and 28, similar corrections shall be made for aluminum alloys.

In order to further transform the operation mechanism, establish the operation concept of "market-oriented, customer-centric", strive to improve our core competitiveness and promote the rapid development of business; further strengthen customer marketing management, subdivide customer groups, establish a top-down, crisscross, hierarchical marketing mechanism of "everyone is a marketer", and provide for the needs of different levels of customers Corresponding services.

The company's headquarters has a well-established logistics distribution system, which can quickly transport the steel materials to the port through the contracted logistics companies. Professional contracted logistics companies can significantly reduce costs and various commodity-related expenses. Meanwhile, the flexible transfer ensures that the API 650 welded steel oil storage tanks steel materials can be shipped immediately after passing the quality inspection.
