RE: aluminium welded storage tanks

Actually, API-650 does now cover aluminum storage tanks in Appendix AL. There used to be a separate ASME code for aluminum storage tanks, but it was very similar to API-650, and I think it has been discontinued. In my experience, aluminum tanks are very uncommon. I'm not sure to what extent the requirements of API-650 App. AL have been coordinated with API-653.
