CSA G40.21 Gr 260W plates API 650 aluminum storage tanks

Some defects may be found after the regular safety inspection for the API 650 aluminum storage tanks. The common API 650 aluminum storage tanks defects are: Tank cracks, tank welding defects. The cracks on the base metal, surface and near surface of the tank wall shall be eliminated by grinding with circular arc, and then magnetic particle inspection or re inspection shall be carried out. Cracks in heat affected zone: generally, grinding method is used to eliminate cracks, and magnetic particle or dye flaw detection is used to confirm that there is no crack, and then repair welding or grinding smooth transition.

Impact Requirements for Controlled-rolled or Thermo-mechanical Control Process (TMCP) Plates: Subject to the approval of the Purchaser, controlled-rolled or TMCP plates (material produced by a mechanical- thermal rolling process designed to enhance the notch toughness) may be used where normalized plates are required. API 620 welded storage tanks each used plate, as rolled, shall be Charpy V-notch tested to the requirements of R.2.1.2.

API 650 petroleum storage tank body design is mainly the design of tank bottom, API 650 aluminum storage tanks tank top and tank wall, and the design of tank wall is particularly important. As the main pressure bearing part of API 650 petroleum storage tank, the tank wall bears loads including liquid pressure, wind pressure, seismic load, opening stress, etc. The calculation of such loads is explained in detail in various API 650 aluminum storage tanks storage tank design standards. But in addition, the API 650 petroleum storage tank wall also bears the push-pull force and torque of the connected pipeline.
