12. For bottom plate thickness measurement we are using MFL & UT.

The quality of data obtained for these techniques is dependent on personnel, equipment and _________ a. b. c. d. Location where the measurement was taken. Procedure Inspector All of the above.

13. The 1st shell thickness of the tank is 1inch and its stress is 27000 lbf/ sq.in. what will be the annular plate thickness. (note: product specific gravity is 0.9) a. b. c. d. e. 0.22 inch. 0.50 inch. 0.31 inch. 0.10 inch. Not enough information given to calculate annular plate thickness.

14. The 1st shell thickness of the tank is 1 inch and material is A537 Gr-2, what will be the annular plate thickness (note: product specific gravity is 1.1) a. b. c. d. e. 3/8 inch. inch. 5/8 inch. 7/16 inch. Not enough information given to calculate annular plate thickness.

15. Hairline cracks of uniform width do not seriously affect the strength of the concrete foundation. However these cracks can be potential access points for moisture or water seepage that could eventually result in corrosion of the ____________. a. b. c. d. Bottom plate. Annular plate. Reinforcing steel. Shell plate.

16. Any change in service must be evaluated to determine if it increase the risk of failure due to brittle fracture. If the change in more severe, hydrostatic test is required, and following should be considered. a. The like hood of repair/ alterations similar hydrostatic test done. b. The like hood of repair / alterations since the original hydrostatic test not meeting requirements of API 653. c. Deterioration of the tank since original hydro test. d. All of the above. e. b & c.
