API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks problem solution

The application of API 650 is as stated by the American Petroleum Institute: The production and installation of our ground welded steel API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks storage tanks are generally used in industry; under normal circumstances, the storage tanks installed on the industrial site in the United States are in accordance with API 650, API 620 and API 12d Standards are established.

Tank cracks are common API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks defects, mainly including tank wall cracks, internal cracks, weld zone cracks. The reason for these defects may be that the defects not exceeding the standard existed in the early stage of API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks construction, which become obvious after the later use. Or in the process of using the API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks, the tank body material generated new defects due to corrosion, pressure, wear and other reasons, and tank cracks.

Foundations and subgrade shall safely carry the weight of the tank API standard 650 unanchored liquid-storage tanks and its contents when the tank is filled with water to the highest level required for a hydrostatic test or other water-loading operations, even though the tank itself may be designed for some lesser density of liquid. However, in cases where the character of the soil justifies it and a competent soil expert advises it, allowance may be made for the relatively short duration and intermittent nature of the water loadings if suitable account is taken of all such loadings that may be expected to occur during the life of the tank, including not only those loadings that are incidental to periodic repetitions of the hydrostatic test in accordance with 7.18 but also water-filling operations for gas-freeing purposes.
