Settlement Evaluation:
Shell settlement surveys were conducted in accordance with the requirements of
API 653 Figure B-1. These surveys were evaluated in accordance with the API 653
Appendix B.2.2 and compared with the acceptance criteria outlined in API 653
Appendix B.3.2.

Note:
Calculation of maximum permissible S or out-of-plane distortion per API 653
Appendix B.3.2 was made using:
FIND: Shell settlement API 653 Appendix B Methodology Given:

Tank diameter: 9.154 m = 30 ft Tank circumference: 28.73 m = 94.2 ft


Req’d stations: 94.2/32 = 4 ref API 653 12.5.1.2 Actual station: 8
Arc length Spacing between Measuring points (ft) = 11.77 L < 32 –ft OK
Yield strength (Ib/in²) = 30000 Y
Modula’s of elasticity ( Ib/in² ) = 29 x 10⁶ E
Tank Height (ft) = 23.95 H

SMAX = 0.0329 ft = 0.010 mt

ITP #: Repot No :

• The tank foundation with concrete ring wall under the shell.
• As per API 650 7.5.5.2 a Foundation Settlement

• Maximum Level Between Two Point’s = Point’s 2,3 and 10, 11 (∆Z = 6 mm)
• Maximum Level in total circumference = (∆ Z = 6 mm)
• Foundation types provided by B.V (Civil report).

Result :
- Foundation is out of tolerance in some 9 meters locations.
- Foundation is within tolerance in total circumference.
