API standard 650 unanchored tanks rectangular roof openings

Corrosion allowance, if specified, shall be added to calculated API 650 tanks shell and self-supporting roof thicknesses; to minimum nominal thicknesses of bottom and supported API standard 650 unanchored tanks roof plates; to nozzles and manholes; and to all exposed surfaces of internal structural members and non-removable internals.

In this project, an elemental area of tank wall used is constructed of ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate subjected to a meridional unit force, T1, of 4000 lbf/in.2 tension and a latitudinal unit force, T2, of 5060 lbf/in.2 compression. The meridional radius of curvature, R1, is 75 in., and the length of the normal from the surface to the axis of revolution, R2, is 300 in. The joints in the wall are of double-welded butt-joint construction with a tensile efficiency of 85%. A corrosion allowance of 1/16 in. is required.
The problem in this example is to graphically find the minimum thickness of tank wall required for the given conditions (see 5.10.3.3).
Solution: As determined from Table 5-1, the maximum allowable tensile stress value, Sts, for ASTM A442 Grade 55 steel plate in simple tension is 16,500 lbf/in.2. Since the compressive stress is latitudinal, the governing value of R in this situation is R1, or 75 in.

The API standard 650 unanchored tanks must go through strict inspection before putting into use. Inspection of plate groove of API standard 650 unanchored tanks, vertical oil tank: After finishing the groove processing of oil tank plate, it is necessary to conduct dye penetrant inspection on the groove. This process is mainly aimed at the hard damage of groove in the machining process and the defects of the plate itself. If any defect is found, it shall be processed again until the defect disappears.

The work concept attaches importance to talents, creates a high-income and high-standard employment mode and work mode, actively advocates all kinds of talents to inspire each other, respect each other, unite and act together, cultivates employees' corporate interests above all else, is tolerant and enterprising, learns correct ways of doing things, improves employees' Professional quality, encourages and urges employees to make continuous progress, Continuously realize self value and grow together with the enterprise.
