- Type of tank (floating roof, fixed roof, horizontal, etc)
- Contents (Class 1, Class 2, Class 3a, etc.)
- Tank size (diameter and volume)
- Tank operating pressure
I recommend you go to a site like Techstreet.com where you can purchase NFPA 30 for immediate download and then you'd be able to review the requirments and make an appropriate selection

If your depot involves multi-million dollar tanks being designed and constructed, it is worthwhile to spend a few dollars on the necessary codes and standards that govern the safety of the installation.
Forty six bucks.......
