LEG SUPPORTED ATMOSPHERIC TANKS
LEG SUPPORTED ATMOSPHERIC TANKS
(OP)
Hello!
We are currently doing a project which includes atmospheric storage tanks that is supported by 2m high legs. We're not sure of the reference we need to follow for the leg calculation and bottom shell thickness. API650 is not applicable, isn't it? How about AWWA D100? Any other references?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!!!

API-620 and AWWA D100 can both be applied to leg-supported tank, but neither gives much guidance on the leg or leg attachment design, either.
Most of the references are for pressure vessels.
