Hello,
The attached sketch shows a drain style where half the pipe penetrates the shell above the floor and the other is half below and penetrates through the floor. I'm aware this detail is not included in API 650, but is fairly commonly used in the industry. Any thoughts on what tanks (considerations for size, environmental conditions, contents, etc.) you feel comfortable using this detail on? Tanks you do not? Aware of any engineering resources for this drain style?

Thank you
