API 650 - Using WRC 297 With Repad

This document summarizes the calculation of nozzle loads on a storage tank according to API 650 standards. It provides key dimensions and material properties of the tank and nozzle. Stress factors are obtained from tables based on geometric parameters. Factored stresses are calculated from primary and secondary loads. Combined stresses are found and compared to allowable stresses to determine if the loads are acceptable. The calculated loads are found to be acceptable in this case.
