API 12D vs 650 Tank Design- Anchorage Requirements

API 12D vs 650 Tank Design- Anchorage Requirements

(OP)
API 650 Tank in Colorado, 40'Dia X 24', with 3.5 oz/in^2 requires overturning anchorage.  On the other hand, API 12D tank, equal size, equal pressure, same location- I don't see any 12D reference to wind design, seismic design, or anchorage requirements.  Am I missing something?  How is it justified- equal tanks, one 650 requires anchorage, one 12D no anchorage required?

Don't double post. Link to your other thread.
