    Storage tanks are containers for holding liquids that operate under little pressure and are often cylindrical shaped. They come in many shapes and sizes and there are environmental regulations that apply to their design and operation depending on the fluid. Large tanks tend to be vertically cylindrical or have rounded corners to better withstand pressure from contained liquids.

    A Storage Tank is a container, usually for holding liquids.

    Storage tanks operate


    under no (or very little) pressure. Storage tanks are often cylindrical in shape,
    perpendicular to the ground with flat bottoms, and a fixed or floating roof. There
    are usually many environmental regulations applied to the design and operation of
    storage tanks, often depending on the nature of the fluid contained within.
    Storage tanks are available in many shapes: vertical and horizontal cylindrical;
    closed top; cone bottom.
    Large tanks tend to be vertical cylindrical, or to have rounded corners transition
    from vertical side wall to bottom profile, to easier withstand hydraulic
    hydrostatically induced pressure of contained liquid.
    Storage tanks by utilizing high tensile steel
    In order to obtain full advantage of the improvements in the properties of the high
    tensile steels for structural purposes special attention has to be given to the notch
    ductility and weld ability of the steel used, as well as to the design of the various
    structural details of the tank.
