LNG tank outer tank compressive stress

[Dae Hyun Kim]

Hi, there

I am working on LNG tank design especially for double wall steel tank. I was wondering if I need to apply the piping thermal loads imposed (especially - y direction) on the platform on the roof structure to the calculation of compressive stress on the outer tank?

Please let me have your kind reply..

It is very not clear what you are talking about. You need more details.
