Maximum Design Pressure and Test Procedure
F.4.1
The design pressure, P, for a tank that has been constructed or that has had its design details es

P = ( 1.1 ) ( A ) ( tan ) / D2 + 0.08th

As top angle size and roof slope decrease and tank diameter increases, the design presure perm
approaches the failure pressure of F.6 for the roof-to-shell junction, In order to provide a safe mar
operating pressure and the calculated failure pressure, a suggested further limitation on the maxi
tanks with a weak rof-to-shell attachment (frangible joint) is:
Pmax < 0.8 Pf
