Event Summary
Welded steel storage tanks can seem simple. However, if they are specified poorly during the procurement process it can lead to late delivery, budget overruns, and poor performance once the tank is installed. This webinar will help attendees understand the basics of the most common tank codes (API 12F/650/620, ULC S601, ASME VIII Div 1, and AWWA D-100) so that they can navigate through tank projects more effectively. The presenters will share what they consider to be the best practices for tank design and explain how different design choices can make the difference between a great tank and one that can be a headache for operators. Additional guidance will be given on specific areas to pay attention to during the procurement process to ensure tank fabricators deliver the best tank for your application, on time and on budget.
