DESIGN OF STEEL STORAGE TANKS AS PER API-650 (Diameter 131.7 then Cma= {149000000*Y}/{(L/r)^2[1.6-(L/r*200)] Where Cma= Max. allowable compression, in PSI L = Unbraced length of column, in inches r = Least radius of gyration of column, in inches Y = 1 for structural or tubular section that have t/r value greater than or equal to 0.015 For tubular section that have t/r values < 0.015 Y = {(200/3)(t/R)}{2-(200/3)(t/R)} t/r
