ASTM A131 structural shapes API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks

API 650 is an American standard for welding flat bottom vertical storage tanks. This API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks standard specifies requirements for the design, manufacturing, welding, inspection and installation of storage tanks. API 650 is widely used in storage tanks designed to withstand low internal pressures and used to store typical products such as API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks crude oil, gasoline, chemicals and water. BBN has extensive experience in API 650 tanks, from +/- 500 cubic meters of tanks produced in the factory to +/- 15000 cubic meters of tanks produced on site.

The bottom plate of the vertical API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks directly contacts with the foundation soil, which is suitable for the flexible foundation, and its settlement characteristics are quite different from that of the rigid foundation. For the settlement calculation of the foundation of a vertical API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks, the one-way compression layered sum method can be used. The calculation method is to divide the foundation soil into several layers of compression within the calculation depth of the foundation settlement, and then find the sum. The calculation method of the compression amount of each layer is the same as the calculation method of the compression amount under the condition of no lateral deformation.

The increased uplift described in API Standard 620 tank Appendix Q is intended to apply to the size of the ringwall and foundation but not the anchorage. For tanks with an internal design pressure of 1 lbf/in.2 gauge and over, the uplift, if any, shall be calculated under the combined conditions of 1.25 times the internal design condition plus the design wind load on the API Std 650 partially anchored liquid-storage tanks shell and roof.

BBN company team and culture: tt the end of 2019, in order to thank employees for their hard work and enrich their sparetime lives, the company organized a pleasant trip to Phuket Island, Thailand. This tour lasted 6 days and 5 nights, and returned by plane on the evening of December 27. We took off in Zhengzhou at about 5o'clock in the afternoon on the 22th December. Let's seize the day and live it to the full, and greet the arrival of the year 2020 together.

The company's logistics and transportation department is responsible for developing high-quality third-party logistics companies, to coordinate and follow up the situation of steel materials transportation. Third-party logistics companies provide us with professional logistics services. With this logistics management method, the time for delivery of steel materials is faster, and the logistics service is professional, multifunctional and comprehensive.
