WHO WE ARE

T RK LOYDU is an independent, impartial

classification,

cer ca on, an

conformity assesment organization.

With its Marine and Industry Divisions provides wide range of services;

Classification and statutory surveys of new building and existing ships, and certification of marine materials and products.

Third party inspections, CE marking in pressure vessels, system certifications, type approvals are some of the businesses amongst the others.

EXAMINATION OF

QUALITY PLAN (ITP)

IS AN ESSENTIAL STEP NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED.

QUALIFICATION OF WELDING PROCEDURES

Welding procedure qualification records must meet the requirements of Section IX of the ASME Code.

Either AWS D1.1 or AWS D1.6 are also acceptable for ladder and platform assemblies, handrails, stairways, and other miscellaneous assemblies, but not their attachments to

QUALIFICATION OF WELDERS

The welders and welding operators must be qualified in accordance with Section IX of the ASME Code.

INSPECTION OF MATERIALS;

MARKING

To enable the various fabricated components to be assembled together correctly on site, each part has to be marked with a unique numbering

system.

Hard stamping may be used as well, but except for the plates less than 6

mm thick.

Marking also

provides

traceability

of

each

piece

of

material.

TWO TYPES

OF

TANK

FLOORING

ARE;

‐BOTTOM DOWN: Generally, bottom down is design for cone roof tanks. Centreof the flooring is installed with drain pit. Water in the tank is accumulated in the pit (lowest point of the bottom plate/floor).

‐BOTTOM UP:Generally, this type of design is used for floating‐roof tanks, 3 to 4

collector pits are installed, close to the shell plate. Each of the pit is provided with a

water draw‐off line.

A slo e

of

1:120

is

suitable

The erection procedure shall include the following steps:

(a) a hole shall be cut in the bottom plate or a sump shall

be placed

in

the foundation

before

bottom

placement;

(b) a neat excavation shall be made to conform to theshape of the drawoff sump, the sump shall be put in place, and the foundation shall be compacted around the sump

(c) the

sump

shall

be

welded

to

the

bottom.

VACUUM

TEST

IS

PERFORMED.

Vacuum testing is performed using a testing boxapproximately 150 mm (6 in.) wide by 750 mm

(30 in.) long with a clear window in the top, which provides proper visibility to view the area

under inspection.

Durin testin , illumination shall be ade uate

for proper evaluation and interpretation of the

test.

The open bottom shall be sealed against the

method , or alternatively, by agreement between the purchaser and the

manufacturer, using the ultrasonic method. In addition to the radiographic or ultrasonic examination these welds are also visuall examined.

In general, radiographic inspection is required for shell butt‐welds, annular plate

butt‐welds, and flush type connections with butt welds.

24



TESTING OF

THE

SHELL

After the entire tank and roof structure is completed, the shell is tested by one of the

following methods:

1‐ If water is available for testing the shell, the tank shall be filled with water as follows:

i‐to the maximum design liquid level; ii‐for

a tank

with

a tight

roof,

to

50

mm

above

the

or

26



FIRE PROTECTION

For the cooling water rates the standards do not provide cogruent values.They only prescribe minimum water flow rates

API 2030 : 4.1 liters per minute per square meterNFPA 15 : 10.5 liters / min.m2

IP 19 : 2 liters / min.m2

To be on the safe side for exposure protection we recommend and apply NFPA

rate.

27



EARTHING

To minimize the accumulation of electrostatic charge and prevent sparks, all metal parts of the storage installation must be bonded together and earthed.

Maximum resistance to earth of 10 ohms is recommended.

After completing all structure of the tank, for the surfaces of the weld seams

First, shotblasting then

primer paint should be applied before whole tank is painted.
