API Tank Height

Thursday, May 5, 2011   By: AMIZA [503] 1 Stars
Dear all,

My client request for 25M diameter x 27M height for chilled water storage tank design.
According to API 650, the maximum height standard is 75Ft, which is +/- 23M height,
so can the design be done? What is the requirements to design such tank? Is there any supporting
paragraph in API 650?

Regards
Thanks..!

API does not restrict tank height. Where are you finding this?
