Shell
Joint efficiency for all shell courses = 100%. X-rays are required. Quantity of x-rays shall
be per 8.1.2.
Roof
Roof is single lap welded
Internal pressure does not exceed weight of roof. Appendix F calculations not required.
Wind
Per 5.2.1 (k)(1)(a), wind loads are based on ASCE 7-05.
Shell External Pressure
Per 5.2.5, vacuum calculations are not required.
Seismic
Tank is self-anchored
Freeboard equal to 0.7 times the calculated wave height is recommended but not required. The
required minimum freeboard = 0.334. The available freeboard = 0.000.
Tank is stable against sliding.
Anchor Bolt and Anchor Chair
Tank is not anchored

Mws + 0.40Mpi = (278496.0938) + (0.40)(3305.5524) = 279818.3147 ft-lbs
MDL/1.5 + MDLR = 587091.5150/1.5 + 115616.7707 = 507011.1141 ft-lbs

Check for Sliding (tank empty):

Sliding Force (Vw) = 0.6(PwDH) =
0.6((10.0000)(30.0000)(40.0000)) = 7200.0000 lbs

Resistance to Sliding (Vs) = 0.4(Ws + Wr + Wf - 0.6(Uw)( )(D)/4) =

0.4(39139.4343 + 7707.7847 + 7378.2930 - 0.6(16.2713)( )(30.0000)/4]

Check for Sliding (tank empty):
Sliding Force (Vw) = [(PwDH + PwrAr)] =
