Evaluation of Design Criteria for Storage Tanks with Frangible Roof Joints
Describes research that evaluated the ability of the present Std 650 tank design criteria to ensure the desired frangible joint behavior. Particular questions include:
• evaluation of the area inequality as a method to predict the buckling
response of the compression ring*
• effect of roof slope* tank diameter* and weld size on the frangible joint* and
• effect of the relative strength of the roof-to-shell joint compared to the shell-to-bottom joint. Pages: 73

Study to Establish Relations for the Relative Strength of API 650 Cone Roof* Roof-to-Shell and Shell-to-Bottom Joints
Investigates the relative strengths of the roof-to-shell and shell-to-bottom joints* with the goal of providing suggestions for frangible roof design criteria applicable to smaller tanks. Pages: 68
