API standard 650 storage tanks loads

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

Sand blasting and derusting of API standard 650 storage tanks uses compressed air as power and SiC, pomegranate sand and quartz sand as spraying materials to form high-speed jet beam, which is used to remove rust and dirt on the surface of metal storage tank and improve the binding force of workpiece with coating and plating material. Sand blasting is often used in API standard 650 storage tanks construction.

Large Low-Pressure Tanks Corrosion Allowance
In cases in which the rate of corrosion is closely predictable, additional metal thickness over and above that required for the initial operating conditions shall be provided and shall be at least equal to the expected corrosion loss during the desired life of the tank.
When corrosion effects are indeterminate before the tank is designed (although they are known to be inherent to some degree in the service for which the tank is to be used), and when corrosion is incidental, localized, or variable in rate and extent, the best judgement of the API standard 650 storage tanks designer must be exercised in establishing reasonable maximum excess tank wall thicknesses. For all tanks that come under this classification, a minimum corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. shall be provided.
