Does such a loading quay meet the specification requirements?

Our plant’s gasoline loading dock has a side for loading train tank cars and another side for loading truck tank cars. May I ask if train crane positions and vehicle crane positions can be arranged next to each other?

If the same pier is shared, it should not comply with the Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises.

They can be arranged in one area, but should be placed separately

To summarize the responses from the 2nd and 3rd floors: the loading docks for cars and trains can be arranged adjacent to each other, but they cannot share the same dock. However, Table 3.2.11 of the \"Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises\" requires a distance of 15 meters between automobile loading/unloading stations and railway loading/unloading facilities. How should this be interpreted? This post was last edited by kuaileren on 2009-4-16 20:09]

I’ve never seen such an arrangement; it’s very strange. I wonder what standards it follows. According to the standards I know about now, it does not meet the requirements!

How is it arranged, as you understand it or have seen it?

I’m not quite clear about what you mean by having trains loaded on one side and cars loaded on the other. It’s possible to set up separate quays within a larger area, as long as the fire separation requirements are met; otherwise, it does not comply with the regulations

Small-scale loading should be possible. I have also developed such solutions for clients: directly pumping the oil out of train tank cars and filling it into truck tanks.

I really haven’t seen anything like this before. Dude, you could take some photos and share them with us for reference, but it’s not allowed according to the regulations. Table 3.2.11 of the \"Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises\" specifies that there should be a distance of 15 meters between automobile loading/unloading stations and railway loading/unloading facilities, unless the pier in question is 15 meters wide. :lol
