Has anyone with more experience done the design of a dome-shaped storage tank? This format is generally not used in China, and API650 does not provide a specific calculation method for such roofs. Is there anyone who can give some guidance? Thank you.

I saw that it is said to be easier to manufacture the top of an umbrella than an arch-shaped top; then why is the arch shape still widely used in China?

There are papers on the design of a fixed roof for umbrellas; Li Yaohong – you can find them by searching for his name； Additionally, it is also included in the 1986 version of the large storage tank design ；
