Reduction factor per M.3.8 due to temperature

__0.8700_-_0.9200__ * (100.0000 - 94.0000) = 0.9146
Per Table M-1, M = 0.9200 + 150.0000 - 94.0000

Yield strength (Fyb) = 250000.0000 kPa

Bottom yield strength (Fy) = FybM = 250000.0000 * 0.9146 = 228660.7143 kPa

Joint efficiency (E) = 0.7000

Pressure due to weight (Pw) = 0.0770t = 0.0770 * 12.0000 = 0.9245 kPa

Per ASME Section VIII:

Transposed shell thickness (ts) = 6.0000 mm
Transposed required shell thickness (td) = 2.7432 mm
C = 0.3300 * td/ts = 0.3300 * 2.7432/6.0000 = 0.1509
but C not less than 0.2000, therefore C = 0.2000
Calculated pressure (Pc) = (t / D)²(SE/C) =
(12.0000/9580.0000)²(150916.0714 * 0.7000/0.2000) = 0.8288 kPa

Total pressure (Pt) = Pw + Pc = 0.9245 + 0.8288 = 1.7533 kPa

Allowable Compression Stresses in Shell per E.6.2.2.3

For new condition:

GHD²/t² = (1.0000)(4.2000)(9.5800)²/(1.8314)² = 115

For GHD²/t² 44
Per E.6.2.2.3-1a, Fc = 83ts/D = (83)(1.8314)/9.5800 = 16 MPa

Per E.7.2-2, Af = KSD1I/Tc = (1.5)(0.0800)(1.0000)/3.3506 = 0.0358

Wave Height Per E.7.2-1: s = 0.42DAf = (0.42)(9.5800)(0.0358) = 0.1441 m

Per Table E-7, minimum freeboard = 0.7 s = (0.7)(0.1441) = 0.1009 m

Tank resistance to sliding per E.7.6

Per E.7.6-1, Vs = 0.4000(Ws + Wr + Wf + Wp)(1.0 - 0.4Av) =
0.4000(670593 + 80774 + 70840 + 2967157)(1.0 - 0.4 * 0.0000) = 1515746 N
V = 140591 N

Local shear transfer per E.7.7

Vmax = 2V/( D) = 2 * 140591/( * 9.5800 * 1000) = 9.3427 kN
Yield Strength (Fy) = 226.6964 MPa

Minimum weld size = (Vmax/(0.80Fy))/0.707 =

(9.3427/(0.80 * 226.6964))/0.707 = 0.0729 mm

Tank is stable against sliding.
