TANK® is a comprehensive, easy-to-use Tank Designer Software for the design, analysis and evaluation of oil storage tanks. It provides for the design and analysis of wall and bottom plate thickness, supported cone roofs, service and maintenance considerations and other factors affecting tank design and safety, such as internal pressure, shell settlement, seismic and wind. TANK saves time by letting users select material information automatically from its extensive built-in material databases…..
Data Collection:
The menu-driven interface of TANK enables the quick definition of input and functions for the accurate analysis of oil storage tanks to American Petroleum Institute (API) standards. Increased flexibility is provided by allowing you to select any unit combination for analyses or to produce reports. Unit files are completely user-definable, so engineers are not bound by program default settings. Even existing jobs can be converted to any existing unit format.
User Interface:
The user interface in TANK presents only what is needed at each point of information gathering. You are not burdened with out of sequence requirements for information required for analysis. You are asked only for what is needed when it is needed.
Analysis Options and Codes:
TANK performs calculations in accordance with the latest API Standards 579, 620, 650 and 653. Analysis can also take into account wind, seismic, and settlement conditions, plus calculate air venting requirements to API 2000 Section 4.3.
Advanced Analysis and Reporting:
After completing an analysis, users can view the results in a tabular report or as a graphic diagram with associated data. For convenience in verifying the results, the output reports reference code sections used where applicable. Quickly send analysis results to output reports or export the file format of your choice (Word, PDF, etc.)
