Also consider this: Since here the operating weight is more than the hydrotest weight, for checking tank settlement it is better to increase the freeboard.
And for hazard situation, an overflow nozzle might solve the problem.
Hello,
As per Section 6 of API 650, it seems for large storage tanks joint efficiency is not considered 1.00(notations of Figure 6-1 mentioned spot radiography). Is it right?
What shall we use as joint efficiency in E.6.2.4(b) for large storage tanks? (tanks which not included in Appendix A)...
