Can flat-rolled steel be used to manufacture storage tanks?

I never used it before; I wonder if anyone else has used it? What is the width of the steel plate?

The specifications vary among different manufacturers; it is necessary to choose a manufacturer first before checking the details! ! ! ! This way, there won’t be any significant deviations! ! ! There’s also the “paneling” option; only some manufacturers (such as Wuhan Iron and Steel) produce panels of fixed dimensions! ! ! For reference only! ! !

It can be used; be careful of the negative deviation in plate thickness when placing the order

Strictly speaking, it can’t be used, but as long as the lengths of the diagonals are controlled properly, it’s not a problem; otherwise, each piece will need to have its edges trimmed.

The price is quite different from that of ordinary steel plates, and it seems the owner still wants to use this type of steel plate.

It is recommended not to use it; if it is used, stress relief and leveling must first be carried out on a dedicated flatness testing machine, otherwise excessive deformation will occur after welding, failing to meet the requirements of construction standards.

Agree with the opinion above, but private business owners might be more inclined to invest more.

When using flat plates, it is important to choose the right manufacturer – flat plates produced by larger manufacturers are of better quality than those from smaller firms. The selection should be based on the design or construction requirements of the storage tank, as well as the technical specifications provided by the manufacturer; generally, a thickness of 10 mm or less is preferable, as it makes it easier to ensure the proper quality of the storage tank’s structure. It is generally used in small-tank construction to save costs.

I don’t know what you’re talking about – these days, whose TV sets aren’t flat-screen? For example, if the tank size is Φ32×35, with a wall panel 2 meters high in the middle, and it is to be cut into 12 pieces, try using the original flat plate – what size cutting would be required? What is the material utilization rate? How much will it cost?

Flat plates suffer from significant welding deformation; they can be used for tank roofs and the upper wall panels, but it is not advisable to use them for the steel plates at the bottom of the tank.

May I ask quietly, what does it mean to turn on a tablet? What exactly is a original flat panel?

Is it necessary to trim the edges before welding to create the tank walls from flat sheets?
