    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This standard establishes rules for the design and calculation of welded static,vertical, non-pressurised, cylindrical, flat-bottom thermoplastic tanks. This standard applies to tanks fabricated in the following thermoplastics: Polyethylene (PE), Polypropylene (PP), Poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC), Poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF). This standard does not take into account wind and/or snow loading. If wind or/and snow loading has to be taken into account additional calculations are necessary.
