1 Scope
This specification stipulates the requirements for materials, loads, calculations and structures of reinforced concrete tanks in petrochemical industry. This specification is applicable to the structural design of cast-in-place reinforced concrete tanks, non-liquid storage tanks, and underground and semi-underground pump houses in petrochemical industry.
This specification is not applicable to the structural design of prefabricated reinforced concrete tanks, prestressed concrete tanks and open caissons.
This specification does not involve foundation treatment of tanks. Foundation treatment, if required, shall comply with the current national technical specifications on foundation treatment.

3 Basic design requirements
3.1 The tanks are classified by their embedded types into underground tanks, semi-underground tanks, ground tanks and overhead tanks, and their classification method shall meet the following requirements:
a) Underground tanks are those whose top elevation is below the ground or not more than 300 mm above the ground;
b) Semi-underground tanks are those with half or more than half of the tank wall height below the ground;
c) Ground tanks are those with more than half of the tank wall height above the ground;
d) Overhead tanks are those whose base slab bottom is above the ground and is elevated by column base or strip base.
3.2 Tanks are generally classified into rectangular tanks and circular tanks according to their shapes.
3.3 Single-cell rectangular tanks without joints may be classified into deep-walled tank, shallow-walled tank and two-way slab-walled tank according to the length to height ratio of tank wall, and the classification method shall be in accordance with those specified in Table 3.3.
3.4 The tanks may be classified into integral type and separated type according to the bottom slab structure.
3.5 The waterproofing of the tanks are divided into four grades, and the waterproofing standards of each grade shall be in accordance with those specified in Table 3.5.
3.6 Water storage test shall be carried out for all tanks, and the test requirements shall be in accordance with SH/T 3535 Specification for construction and acceptance of concrete water pit engineering in petrochemical industry, and shall meet the waterproofing standards specified in Table 3.5.
3.7 Waterproofing grade of common tanks in petrochemical industry should be in accordance with those specified in Table 3.7.
3.8 The concrete impermeability grade of common tanks in petrochemical industry shall be in accordance with those specified in Table 3.8, and the engineering with seepage prevention requirements shall meet the requirements of Technical code for seepage prevention in petrochemical engineering.
