API Std 650 ground supported tanks wind girder joints

This specification, in conjunction with API 650 Standard, prescribes minimum standards for the API Std 650 ground supported tanks design, supply, fabrication, erection, and testing of field erected welded steel storage tanks complete with accessories as specified herein and as shown on attached Datasheets and/or Drawings.

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 Std 650 ground supported tanks 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.

The longer the service life of the API Std 650 ground supported tanks, the lower the reliability and the prone to failure. Doing a good job in the maintenance of the metal oil tank can ensure the normal use of the oil tank, reduce the wear of the API Std 650 ground supported tanks body and accessories, and extend the service life of the oil tank. The maintenance of metal oil tanks is mainly to do a good job in the anti-corrosion of the oil tank, the cleaning of the deposits in the API Std 650 ground supported tanks and the overhaul of its accessories. Regularly inspect and maintain the accessories of the oil tank: valves, oil measuring holes, breathing valves, flame arresters, ladders, foam fire extinguishing generators, etc., and make records. If any damage is found, repair them in time.
