A.5.1.

1 General
This method is used for verification of projects and non-circular tanks, with a pressure of less than 0.14 bar.

A.5.1.2 Calculation Methodology

Check the tank in the 3 conditions described by A.5.1.2.1 to A.5.1.2.3. The result of the 3 conditions determines the minimum thickness to be taken to different parts of the plating (see A.5.1.4) Based on the main characteristics of the plating (see A.5.1.3), the minimum thickness will be calculated according to formulas ADR 6.8.2.1.17. The result is shown in Table A9 (A.5.1.5) The minimum required thickness of shell, according to 6.8.1 and 6.8.2 (for plating protected), is shown in Table A.10 (see A.5.1.5) A.5.1.2.1 Test According to ADR A.5.1.2.2. Check stresses in the test condition in accordance with EN 13 094 6.4 (see A.5.1.6 and A.5.5) with respect to the values reported in 6.7, namely: = min. 0.75Re; 0.5 Rm ( See Table A.7) A.5.1.2.3 Condit. 3) Check stresses in operating conditions (see A.5.1.7 and A.5.6) with respect to the values of maximum stresses required, namely: = min. 0.75Ret ; 0.5 Rmt (see Table A.5) With the calculation pressures equal to those defined in a), b) and c) the following: a) plating: maximum working pressure increased by the static pressure equivalent to two times the height of the denser the substance to be transported to the section of the hull design; b) Provisions: Front cover of fixed tanks and bottoms tank containers / swap bodies: the maximum operating pressure of increased static pressure due to 1 times the height of the denser the substance to be transported to the fund the project and the dynamic pressure due to 2g push on the bottom front of the substance; rear-end fixed tank: the maximum operating pressure increases the static pressure due to 2 times the height of the denser substance to be transported back to the fund concerned; c) closed diaphragms: maximum working pressure increased by the static pressure due to 1 times the height of the substance to be transported to the densest section of shell project; A.5.1.3 Key features of the tank Main dimensions (Table A.1); Pressure induced by the product transported (Table A.2); Design pressure under service conditions (Table A.3); Temperature (Table A.4) Mechanical properties of materials forming the shell and accessories (Table A.5); Rm x A values selected for calculation of equivalent thickness (Table A.6); A.5.1.4 Minimum thickness adopted See Table A.8 A.5.1.5 Minimum thickness required from the calculations (Table A.9); from the norm (Table A.10); A.5.1.6 Check stresses at the test pressure shell on the walls (Tables A.11 and A.12); Funds (Table A.14 and A.16, for which the values of the mechanical and geometrical characteristics A.13 and A.15 in tables) A.5.1.7 Verifying the stresses under service conditions Circumferential stress on the walls of the Shell (Table A.17 and A.18); Dynamic stress during transport on the walls of the Shell (A.5.6.2); Solicitation of funds (Table A.20 and A.22, for which the values of the mechanical and geometrical characteristics are given in Tables A.19 and A.21); ( , g g ); Stress of diaphragms (Table A.24 and A.26, for which the values of the mechanical and geometrical characteristics are given in Tables A.23 and A.25). A.5.2 data A.5.2.1 Features tanker Tank Corps: two free-standing sections with truncated cone between. Tank shell rings interspersed with circumferential profiles extruded, applied with the caps of the diaphragms.
