Seismic Tank Design 5

[bluedieselblack]

Can anyone recommend a good Seismic Design Textbook for Tanks / Pressure Vessels? I need to start at the begining and not with a Handbook. I have both Pressuve Vessel Books, Moss and Megyesy. Thanks

Seismic for tanks and vessels are handled differently as tanks need to take into account the impulsive and convective seismic responses. For tanks have a look at API 650 Appendix E and EC. For vessels the best reference would be the applicable building code for your site location (ie. NBC, IBC, ASCE).

Why Japan? Is there any indication that the original poster is from there?

Here are three papers with the required design information along with their references. The last site has information on upcoming change to the the design criteria. I didn't check to see if the other papers incorporated any of the changes.

LSThill,
Cannot find "DESING RECOMMENDATION FOR STORAGE TANKS AND THEIR SUPROTS 1996 EDITION" you reference.

References should be correct!!! Otherwise no point in providing.

 

[MJCronin]

The book "Aboveground Storage Tank handbook" by Phillip Meyers has a chapter on seismic design.

Mostly, it reviews the methodology contained in API-650

MJC,
The meyers book is a good reference - have it on my shelf!!
