Tank Calculation Sheet: I. Design Parameters

This document contains calculations for the design of a storage tank. It provides design parameters such as materials, pressures, dimensions, and allowable stresses. It then calculates the required plate thicknesses and stiffener properties for the shell walls, roof, and bottom based on structural analysis methods from API 650 and Roark's Formulas. All adopted plate thicknesses and stiffener properties are found to meet the minimum requirements based on allowable stresses and deflections.
