Tanks intended for the storage of liquids corrosive to mild steel should be suitably protected. When tanks are required for the storage of liquids outside the temperature range ~10°C to + 150°C, the materials and methods of fabrication should receive special consideration In this revision, dimensions are based on chosen smetric capacities. Dished and flanged ends of only four sizes are used, which are convenient for the _manufecture of compartmented tanks; these ae based con metric outside diameters. Imperial dimensions for dished ends are retained for current production pparposes, but as and witen existing tooling requires renewal it should be replaced to suit the metric sizes specified inthis standard.

However, if justified by demands from industry, consideration will be given to the reinstatement of either or both of these forms of construction at a future dat. Dimensions for lifting ugs ate included and certa of the requirements dealing with welding and testing hhave been revised. Manhole details re given and manholes are shown positioned near one end of the tank, with the advantages that: (@) itis easy to avoid a joint weld through the manhole; (b) some degree of production standardization ‘can be achieved; (©) tank manlid connections can be grouped at fone end, which can be particularly useful in multi tank installations. ‘The above-ground tanks specified in this standard ‘comply with the performance requirements for Type ‘Atanks in BS 799. Certification, Attention is drawn to the certification facilities deseribed on the inside back cover of this standard. Od BS 2594 :1975 British Standard Specification for Carbon steel welded horizontal cylindrical storage tanks aan Ree ee acer eeceeeee EeeeeEe ECL ceeeen eee CeCe 1. Scope ‘This British Standard specifies requirements for the sign and construction of carbon steel fusion welded horizontal cylindrical storage tanks with dished and flanged ends for the storage of liquids within the temperature range of 10 °C to + 150°C. The standard includes both above-ground tanks with saddle supports and underground tanks, Details of the range of dished and flanged ends ‘upon which the range of standard diameter tank sizes has been based are given in tables 2A and 2B. ‘The overall lengths given in tables 1A and 1B relate to tanks with butt-welded circumferential seams. ‘Tanks wholly fabricated at the manufacturer's works may be constructed using either of the types of ‘construction ifustrated in figure 2, provided the ‘overall lengths specified are maintained. NOTE 1. The aboveground storage tanks specified inthis Standard are not intended for mobile applications. [NOTE 2 Except where otherwice stated the requirements ‘ecified apply to both aboveground and underground tanks 2. References The titles of the British Standards referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3. Information to be supplied by the purchaser ‘The following information, as appropriate, shall be supplied by the purchaser with his enquiry (@) The diameter and length or the nominal capeity ofthe tank, {(b) The shel and end plate thickness required, NOTE, Attention is awn to regulation concerning the storage of flammable igus. Petroleum spit must be stored in tanks complying withthe requements of leensing athositon (© The diameter, number and postion of any extra manholes required (see 8.3.2). (@ The material to be used for the manhole and ‘other gaskets (see 8.3.2.6).

Tanks shall not be used at pressures or vacua higher than these values, NOTE. The plate thickneses specified inthis standard are based om aliquid contents relative density of unity (wate). ‘Special consideration should be given ifthe relative density ofthe liquid tobe stored is significantly greater. 5. Standard tank sizes 5.1 Standard tank sizes shall conform to the ‘dimensions given in table 1A or 1B, The corresponding dished ends and compartment plates shall conform to the dimensions given in table 2A or 2B as appropriate. 5.2 The ullages ofthe tanks given in tables 1A and 1B telate to tanks constructed with all butt-welded shells ‘overlapping the dished ends. Depending on the type i f shell plate arrangoment used and the plate sizes : ble, there will necessarily be small variations in ‘overall nominal capacities. 6. Forms of construction 6.1 The minimum thickness of dished end and compartment plates and shell plates shall be a given intables 1A of 1B. 6.2 Two different methods of shel pate arrangement are permitted as follows: (2) shell pated circumferentally; all seams with butt welds; (b) shell plated cizcumferentally; lapped circum ferential seams with butt welds for the Tongitudinal seams (by prior agreement with the purchaser only) ‘The method of welding lapped circumferential seams i illustrated in figure 6. 6.3 Permissible forms of shell construction are illustrated in figure 3. 6.4 The method of welding dished and Manged ends to the shell and a method of welding compartment plates to the shell are illustrated in figure 4 and figure 5, vow ve nua pounds mn 0 5 5 we toe Aa peoNp 94208 TEESE: aN aN ASUPNT PAE PAL 6 08 39 oe] Oe woe e086] 06 08 59 06 9907 910% 0008} 08 08 s9 os | 9907 9807. o00L} OL 08 s9 os ort oro 00009) 09 os| 9 08 910% 910% oooss| “$5 o8 9 o8 9Oe 9107 cooos| 0s os 9 os 90% 90 cosh} st oe $9 08 910% 90, 0900r} OF o8 $9 08 9H0z 9007 ose) se 08 9 os 907 9W0 oooor| of 08 s9 08 9r07 sH0 00st Sz s9 59 so ovr get ooose| St 9 so s9 get owe coor) 0% so 59 9 862 640 0002] 0% 59 59 s9 86. 3640 ooost} st s9 s9 s9 86. 3640 oo 01} oF so 59 59 ye ¥e0 ose | St 39 s9 s9 WE ¥9e0 wos | os wo) wm | our sont | tt senm| ett oy *) sm | eee pane | pono | 7 : ¢ zane] com | "Stoge | pen ~ “ym| sind ; “amduog| “pea | _Cona) ad wet wpm] wdep (comiy 909 | sorte onze | ‘fuer vosuny| SPT ‘Apedes (Cape or 999 SUL aun | mush memo| wefan | Tous | aHWON BS 2594:1975 spue paSuey pue paysip ypu syuer obes0xs punoas-oroge pue punouBsepun Jeuozti0l| 19 sanrsedeo pue suorsuowuig “WL 1921 (ae!
