Preheating should be performed by heating and maintaining this heat in appreciable lengths of the joint to be welded, preferably using a strip burner with a mild flame rather than a harsh flame such as that from a cutting torch. Electrical strip heaters are available and have been found to be satisfactory. The preheat of 300°F should be checked with a temperature-sensitive crayon, or similarly accurate means, so that the steel 4 in. (or four times the API Std 650 uplifting tanks plate thickness, whichever is greater) on each side of the joint will be maintained at the minimum preheat temperature. Ring burners or heaters are recommended for nozzle and manway welds. At no time during the welding should the base metal fall below a temperature of 300°F.

The effect of air pressure on the API Std 650 uplifting tanks tank walls of the API 650 tank must be considered when the design pressure is greater than 2 kPa.The fixed point method can be used to design the tank wall of atmospheric or micro internal pressure API Std 650 uplifting tanks storage tank.
