When designing, pressure loads, weight loads, wind loads, snow loads, seismic loads, and loads caused by changes in environmental temperature must be taken into account. The characteristic of the pure orange segment type is that the welds formed by assembling the spherical shells are relatively regular, making welding and assembly easier; this accelerates the assembly process and allows for automated welding to be applied. However, the sizes of the petal lobes vary in different zones, and they can only be exchanged within the same zone or between symmetrically positioned zones above and below it ； Material feeding and shaping are complex, the utilization rate of the sheet metal is low, the sheets are small, making it difficult to design manholes and connections, as well as to arrange welds properly. Football valve type: due to the identical size of each piece, the cutting specifications are standardized, resulting in good material utilization, high interchangeability, and short assembly welds. However, the arrangement of welds is difficult, assembly is challenging, and such tanks have a limited capacity. The hybrid tank combines the advantages of the previous two types and is now widely used.

However, the sizes of the petal lobes vary in different zones, and they can only be exchanged within the same zone or between symmetrically positioned zones above and below it ； Material removal and shaping are complex, the utilization rate of the sheet metal is low, the sheets are small, making it difficult to design manholes and connections. And it is not easy to misalign the welds. 2. Football-valve type: since each piece has the same size, the cutting specifications are standardized, resulting in good material utilization, high interchangeability, and short assembly welds. However, the arrangement of welds is difficult, assembly is challenging, and such tanks have a limited capacity. 3 The hybrid tank combines the advantages of the previous two types and is now widely used.
