API Std 650 storage tanks examination of welds

Usually, the soil resistance of the foundation should be considered before the design and construction of API Std 650 storage tanks. The soil endurance in the API Std 650 storage tanks construction area plays a decisive role in the basic cost of the tank. In areas with high soil resistance, not only the cost of foundation treatment can be greatly reduced, but also the ratio of height to diameter of storage tank can be obtained. Therefore, the investment cost of the API Std 650 storage tanks can be greatly saved in the area with large soil resistance.

Design of a Double-wall Tank
The outer bottom, shell, and roof of a double-wall tank shall enclose an insulating space around the bottom, shell, and roof or insulation deck of the inner tank that contains the stored liquid. The annular space shall be maintained at a low positive pressure, which necessitates that the enclosure be vapor-tight. The Purchaser shall specify the design metal temperature and pressure of the inner tank and may specify the design temperature and pressure of the outer tank API Std 650 storage tanks. The Purchaser shall state the specific gravity of the content to be stored, roof live loads, wind load, earthquake load where applicable, and corrosion allowance, if any.

When API 650 storage tank is designed, when the design pressure is small F2 kPa, the impact of air pressure on the API Std 650 storage tanks tank wall thickness is not considered in the tank wall design.
