Product conditions:
S = maximum allowable stress in N/mm2 (see 5.7)
E = joint efficiency factor
H = height from the lower edge of the course under
consideration to the top of the shell in metres
D = nominal diameter of tank in metres
p = design pressure in mbar (ga)
CA = corrosion allowance in mm (for special cases only, to be
specified in requisition; normally zero)
w = maximum density of product to be stored in g/ml (a value
of 1.00 shall be used even where the product to be stored is
lighter)
