Anchor bolts for the storge tank API API 650
(OP)
Dear all
how we can construct a storge tank without fixed the Anchor bolts ?? can you refer to API 650
note D=28m
H=18m
Thanks

Not sure i understand your thread.. I think you do not want to use anchorage or say you want self anchored tank..is this true ?
What is the reason/s for anchorage ? internal pressure ? wind? seismic ? or a combination ?
Provide more info. regarding site data , content etc.. to get more valuable responds..

You are the engineer .... You determine the design conditions and the appropriate sections of the tank code to use.
Tanks without anchor bolts can be constructed to meet the requirements of API-650

for clarifying more on my question ... I am the supervisor of a project to rehabilitate a flouting storage tanks 11,000 cubic meters according to API 653, and I have noticed that there are no anchor bolts ... knowing that the tank was implemented in 2008 ..
Is it possible to implement a tank of this size without anchor bolts ???
Thanks with regards

- Storage Tanks in areas prone to flooding commonly have anchor bolts to prevent floatation
- Storage Tanks located in seismic areas commonly have anchor bolts to help prevent shell failure
- Storage Tanks located in areas of high wind have anchor bolts
- Storage Tanks with an aspect ratio (H/D)> 1.0 commonly have anchor bolts
- Storage Tanks designed for a pool fire with a feature designed to fail (called a "frangible roof") will have anchor bolts
Other storage tanks may not require anchor bolts...
Tanks without anchor bolts can be constructed to meet the requirements of API-650.
The project "Storage Tank Engineer" will determine this .... If the designated STE has zero experience, or has an MBA, or is a 20 year old STEM or STEAM graduate.... you are in real trouble.
What does "implementing" a tank mean ? .... Do not understand ....
Accurate and succinct English word usage is important on these fora

I understand that the project is for repair or alteration of an existing tank constructed in 2008 which seems relatively new ..
Pls post ; the reason and scope of rehabilitation ?, the dimensions of the tank and design data.. to get more valuable responds..
