What is the maximum that a lap welded top angle can extend past the top of the shell plate?
 
Try posting this in the storage tank forum perhaps??

Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.
 
According to API 650 figure F.2, twice the shell plate thickness is the max the heel of the angle can extend above the tank shell.
