    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Part 1 of European Standard EN 976 specifies the requirements and associated test methods for horizontal, cylindrical single walls tanks made of glass reinforced thermosetting resins (hereafter called tanks), and for their accessories, used for the underground non-pressure storage of liquid petroleum based fuels. The tanks specified by this European Standard are tanks with one or more compartments and with or without the possibility of leak detection.
